Part Number Entered
Previous Topic  Next Topic 

Once the part number has been entered, the system does the following checks: Quantity Special Pricing, Quantity Discount Calculation, Best Pricing Manufacturer List, Restocking Fees on Credit Returns, and Customer Credit Limit Check.


Once you have completed entering the part number, if there is Quantity Special Pricing, a message will be displayed for the next level pricing. Just press <ENTER> to continue. Please refer to “Special & Quantity Discount Pricing on Inventory” in SALES MANAGEMENT (2.2.4.1).


If the Quantity Discount Calculation field is set to <S>hipped and the Quantity Shipped Flag is set to Quantity on <H>and in “POS Defaults & Comments” in SYSTEM MANAGEMENT (10.2.6.2 field 10 page 1), the Quantity Special Pricing will be calculated off of the Quantity Shipped.


If a Part Number sold to a Customer is on the Customers Best Pricing Manufacturer List in “Customer Entry” in ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE (6.1.1 field 42 page 3), then the price will be taken from the “Special & Quantity Discount Pricing on Inventory” in SALES MANAGEMENT (2.2.4.1, far-right column), even if the Customer does not purchase the higher quantity.


A POS Discount Percent may be added to every NEW Order for this Customer, this is setup in "Customer Entry" in ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE (6.1.1 field 50). The discount will be added when the order is started, therefore it can be changed before the order is finalized. To delete the discount, press the

<CONTROL> <C> keys at the same time.


Line 6, part number entry has been changed to disallow a dot <.>, space or asterisk <*> in not on file parts; example: 3M.23.98 or 3M.23*98. The following error message will be displayed if the user enters a part with one of the invalid characters:


"A <.>, <SPACE> or <*> cannot be part of the Part Number. Press <ENTER>"


For information on how Credit Limit Checking works please refer to Customer Credit Limit Check under General Help in the Procedures Section.


Related Parts


When entering <RE> at the part number field, if there are Related Parts setup for the part number then the related parts lookup will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.


The price displayed uses the customer's price code, but defaults to the Related Parts Default Price Code setup in "Inventory Setup" (10.2.4.2 field 28 page 3) if there is no customer defined.


To select quantity and parts in the lookup use the following keys:

<Rt Arr>     = Add 1

<Lt Arr>     = Subtract 1

<Pg Up & Dw> = Enter Qty

<Up & Dw Arr>= Scroll

<ESC> or <\> = Done


To select a part just enter a quantity greater than 0. Multiple parts can be selected at the same time. Selected parts will be inserted into the order below the part number where the <RE> option was chosen.


Related parts lookup is also available from Inventory Inquiry (1.5 and 3.3.1) and option <I> in Point of Sale (1.1). If Related Parts are setup for the part being viewed then an option <RE> will be displayed. When viewing Related Parts from these programs only one part will be allowed to be selected with the Right Arrow for display.


Product Group Number


Product Group Lookup is available in the Part Number prompt option <PG>.


It is enabled in Inventory Setup (10.2.4.2, field 32).


The <PG> option will present parts in the Product Group for adding to the order, which is very similar to the way Related Parts are added to an order.


Note: This feature will be used in PSMobile to Present a Product Group screen for display and adding to orders.
