Run Mail Labels:

Once you have printed merge letters you will want to print labels to the same people or just print labels for any of your customers.

Select menu from the main work screen and press enter. From this menu select customer and press enter. Highlight labels and press

enter. A test set of labels will be printed if you so desire. After you have calibrated your printer for the labels select the search criteria

for the labels you would like to print. Do this exactly like the merge option of collection letters. Briefly, you will select the field from

the customer data base that you would like to use for your search criteria. Good examples are BALDUE, CITY_STATES, ZIP Codes

and so on. Select the operator for your search Greater than, less than or equal to and press enter. Type in the amount or name and press

enter. A list of the customer matching the search criteria will be printed and you will be prompted to continue. Select Y to start printing

your labels.

Make Product Labels:

At any time you can print product labels with or without bar codes. Select menu from the main work screen and press enter. A sub

menu will appear, select inventory from this menu and press enter. Select labels from the inventory menu and press enter. You will be

asked to test print three labels to make sure your printer is lined up correctly. Press any key to continue or Esc to re-print three more

labels.

After you have your printer setup you will be asked to narrow your search. Do this by selecting an inventory field from the inventory

field pop-up list and press enter. Select the operator from the next window and type in the amount or name to search by. An example of

this would be to print labels for all products costing more than $50, all products entered in after a certain date or all products from a

certain vendor. Once you have the search criteria selected the system will tally all possible matches and ask you to continue or not. If

you select Y to continue you will be asked to print bar code labels for these products. The last choice you will have before printing will

be if you want one label or one label for each inventory item in stock ie. one label for each like item.

Set Up Security:

The security screen appears when entering menus and functions, when you have Sales Rep’s entered within the system. It will ask you

for your initials or the numbers that were assigned to you. Then, it will ask for a security code. If you were set up without a code you

would just press enter to continue. The security function is designed to permit those with the proper clearance access to the different

levels of the program. There are 3 levels from 1 to 3 if you have a level of l then you will only be able to ring up sales. If you have a

level 3 clearance you will have open access to all areas of the program. To change these levels you would highlight Menu on the main

work screen and press Enter. Use your arrow key to highlight Maintenance and press Enter. Highlight Sales Rep and press Enter. Now,

you can use the arrow keys to go to the field you want to edit or add and press enter type in any changes and press Enter. When you

want to leave press Esc all changes will be saved. Make sure that at least one of the sales rep’s has a level 3 clearance or you will not be

able to return to this menu.
