Specials Fields Definitions

From the Master Menu, double-click . From the Keyop Menu, double-click . The text-based (+) Special Programs screen opens. In the Enter Program Request field, type E. The (+E) Special Item Screen opens. In the Action field, type V. The (+EV) Quick Item Change screen opens. In this screen, you can now make changes to inventory records quickly and easily with much fewer keystrokes than using the [C] Change action code in the (E) Inventory Master screen.

 

Suppose you received a new price list from a manufacturer. Using this feature, you can quickly retrieve all the item records for this manufacturer, and quickly change the costs for these items.

 

You can change or enter the costs and prices, on-hand quantities and bin locations, as well as UPC numbers for manufacturer’s items. You choose one of these three groups when making changes. Regardless of which you choose, you can also change the prefix, page number, department, stock class, and vendor buy unit of measure. When you change UPC numbers, you can also specify a default manufacturer UPC number of up to five characters. This increases efficiency by eliminating the need to re-enter the first five numbers for UPC items. Also, when you choose on-hand quantities and bin locations, you can change the cost and list price.

 

To use this screen, you set limits to indicate which items to change. Next, you indicate the type of change to make (costs and prices, on-hand quantities and bins, or UPC numbers). The system then lists the items that meet your limits, so you can make changes to individual item records.

Note: When you change information, the system takes the same actions that occur when you change information through the (E) screen. For example, changing a cost in the Direct Buy Record updates the L Update field.

After you set limits in the (+EV) Quick Item Change screen, the system displays the first page of item records that meet the limits you set. The first four columns show item number, company, description, and unit of measure for each record. The remaining columns vary, depending on which options you chose.

 

For example, if you specified the [U] UPC Alias option in the Type of Change field, the system displays the unit of measure and the UPC number in the last two rows. If you choose to change wholesaler’s cost, the cost and list price from the Wholesaler Record appear in the last columns.

 

There are additional fields at the bottom of the screen that you can change including the prefix, page number, department (D), and stock class (C).

 

Depending on the type of change you are making, additional fields may appear, including the following:

 

UPC #

Cost $ and List $

UPC UM, Factor, and AMT

M-Mfg Code

Default Manufacturer Code

Product Code
