Order Entry - <F4-Select> on Stock Code Input

During order entry when you press <F4-Select> on Stock Code the system will generally default to the last index used for the search – i.e. if the last search was on the stock description the next search will be on the stock description and so on. An existing option allows the <Enter> key on a blank stock code to focus on a particular secondary index each time regardless of the last search index used and this can now be extended to the use of <F4-Select>.This feature is of particular use when using bar code readers to select the stock item and the bar code is a secondary index.

The new parameter is available on screen 1 of the Optional Features.
