General tab

 

Create Lookup from Stripped Part Number:  this utility is used to add a Lookup (an alias that may be entered at Point Of Sale or Inventory to access existing part numbers).  The stripped number does not have to be unique.

Example:  A part number exists:  AAA1-23 45.  Users want to enter 12345 and have the part number display at Point Of Sale.  Running the Create Lookup will remove all selected characters and enter the 12345 into a second user-defined field in the Inventory.

Strip Spaces: Check Strip Spaces to remove spaces from part numbers when they are added to the new field.

Characters to Strip:  Enter all special characters that should be removed.  These may include forward and backwards slashes (\ /), commas (,), periods (.), dashes (-) and any other characters users would like to remove.

Include MFG in Result:  Click Include MFG to include the manufacturer in the new field.  Please note: if the MFG is entered then users will be required to enter the MFG code for the part to display in Point Of Sale or Inventory.

Place Result In:  Select the field where the new part number will reside. 

Note: this program can be run multiple times if users want to populate more than one field with information.

 

More Info URL:   Each part number has a field that allows users to enter the URL or website address for additional information in Point Of Sale.  The More Info URL in the Inventory Settings allows for a generic URL, if the field on the part record is not filled in.  In addition, programming can be added to the field which directs the user to the MFG and PartNum that is current being accessed.
