Datafile Software Filter Records on Enquiry Search During Sales Ledger processing the system hides accounts flagged as prospects from selection.Similarly Sales and Purchase Order Processing allow the facility to ‘hide’ selected items on the stock file from selection during order entry, this can be used to prevent selection of items that are no longer sold or are no longer available from the supplier. A new feature now adds a similar facility to the
Ledger Enquiry and is available for all of the enquiry applications. When selecting a record to enquire within the
Ledger Enquiry via F4-Select you now have the facility to hide, for example,
prospect accounts on the sales enquiry, deleted orders on the sales and
purchase order enquiry or ‘dead’ stock records on the stock enquiry. On the above enquiry any account record flagged as a
prospect is excluded from the F4 search results within the sales enquiry. Depending on configuration of the filter options by
selecting the OPTIONS button at the bottom right of the search screen, or by
pressing the <F7-Option> key, the facility is available to view all
records that match the search results. Note that operators can manually enter a reference for a filtered record where this is known and the record will be displayed. Filtered records though will not be updated to the enquiry history panel. InstallationLedger Enquiry ManagerThis new feature is enabled via the Enquires
