Here\u2019s what we did last month to make PICS even better:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Added a new <strong>PO Flag<\/strong> to the customer file. It can be left blank or set to &#8216;A&#8217; for no PO required. &#8216;B&#8217; is PO required, but can have duplicates. &#8216;C; is PO required and duplicates not allowed.<\/li>\n<li>Made a change such that when PICS 3.0 reopens screens, it now puts up a &#8220;Please wait&#8221; window on top, then all the screens open under it, and then the new window goes away. The reason we did this is that we suspected that when the system was slow, and the screens were all being re-opened, some users were clicking on stuff before the reopen process finished, and that caused errors because PICS wasn&#8217;t ready to be used yet.<\/li>\n<li>Added a total to the bottom of the <strong>Product Chooser<\/strong>, so you know the value of the items selected so far.<\/li>\n<li>Adjusted the <strong>GL Transaction screen<\/strong> in PICS 3.0 to allow a user to save with no lines. This is useful when you want to make a posting, but then find you don&#8217;t have all the info you need. It is also handy for when you duplicate a transaction, and then decide you don&#8217;t want the lines &#8230; now you can remove the lines and save the transaction to be reused (or deleted) later.<\/li>\n<li>Added <strong>2 new EDI System Controls<\/strong> to let the system know that the 850 import is running, and to block a second or subsequent instance of it from being started. There can only ever be one instance running at a time. One new system control is for <strong>iTrade<\/strong>, and the other is for <strong>Costco<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Interested in a <a href=\"https:\/\/produceinventory.com\/book-produce-inventory-free-demo.html\">no-pressure PICS software demo and consultation<\/a>?
