To set up this type of message go to ICD Menu option #14 (Part Message Maintenance) and enter in the message ID. You can enter a one line description and up to 10 lines for the message that is actually displayed. To link a part to the message, go to ICD #2 (Add'l Part Maintenance) and enter the message ID at prompt #56. Once this is set up the message will appear after the part # is entered, and user will be allowed to continue after pressing <CR>.

 Modified Order Entry Hold Logic to alert the user if a customer has not made a purchase in a while (365 days as an example). This order will then be put on Hold for the Credit Department to review to determine if any action needs to be taken (re-check credit references as an example). This flag driven option is setup in the Accounts Receivable Flags (UTF #1), prompt #33. Two flags will need to be established: The number of days allowed and the hold code (from the Order Status Menu) to use. Now, during the Order Entry process the system will check if it has been "XXX" days since this customer's last order. If so it will then put the Order On-Hold. Now, when you run the Credit Hold Report (OE #78) the Hold Code entered in the company flags will show on the report as the reason.
9. WEB AP WebPartner modification to the Advanced Products Search routine to allow the customer to do a sub-search within some given results. Part Numbers now are hyperlinked to display results 'within the results' making it easier for customers to find what they are looking for.
10. IC 1 Added the capability for the user to add a new Sales GL Number to the Product Category. You can now post to a Separate Sales G/L Number for Taxable and Non-Taxable Line Items from a Sales Order. To use this modificaiton you must first enter a 2nd Sales G/L number in Product Catagory Maintenance for Non-Taxable Items. Note: If you leave the new field blank it will use the Regular Sales G/L Number for both Taxable and Non-Taxable items.
