IBT Module

002

Product Start and End Test

Set Receipt Cost to Issue Cost

Within the IBT module the issuing branch cost and calculation method is stored on the IBT line when a despatch is confirmed. A second (receipt) cost is assigned at the receiving branch when the receipt is confirmed.

This option can be switched on to ensure that the receipt cost is set the same as the issue cost, regardless of any cost differences at the branches concerned.

Bypass Request Number/Required

Within the IBT module, if the "request" stage is never used, this option can be switched on to bypass input of request number and required by date during the "allocate" stage.

005

IBT Document Headers/Trailers

This option works in conjunction with the terms and conditions file types 23 and 24.

This array is subsequently downdated when the associated IBT receipt is confirmed. IBT entries in this array are clearly distinguished.

Only Print Headings on Page 1

If this option is switched on, the headings on the second and subsequent pages of IBT documents are suppressed.

The document reference is always printed.

028

Comms: Transmit IBT Requests

Comms will now transfer IBT requests.

029

Use Product Average Cost Price in Issues Report

If this option is switched on then the IBT Issues Report will calculate Cost Amount values displayed on the report using the Average Cost Price value from the Product file rather than the Issue BR Cost value from the IBT Lines file. This means that with this option switched on the cost amount on the IBT lines file, which is derived from the IBT Issue setting on the Branch file, is over-ridden.

If this option is switched on a Cost Uplift % prompt will also be enabled. This will allow a percentage value to be entered that will be added to the cost amount of each IBT line.

030

IBT Receipts: Disable Quantity Modification

If this option is switched on then within IBT Receipts, the user will not be allowed to modify any quantities. A message will be displayed saying this. This will force users to use stock adjustments to reduce quantities.
