Re-usable data such as receivers, dangerous goods descriptions, and types of items, are stored in the database so the information can be retrieved. From time to time you will need to add, delete, or modify this data. Data in these tables can be maintained from the Maintenance menu on the main screen.
Accounts
Maintenance > Accounts
Choose an existing account from the Name drop-down, then edit the details, and click Save. Or click Clear, then enter the details of a new account (if you require multiple accounts.)
Carriers
Maintenance > Carriers
During initial setup, you need to come to this screen to configure your connote sequence generation, and setup your label and connote printers.
Dangerous Goods
Maintenance > Dangerous Goods
Enter the UN number and select your entry from the drop-down list. If the UN number doesn’t exist (i.e. a new DG), just enter the new details and click the Save button.
Click on Delete to remove the selected entry from the list.
Item Types
Maintenance > Item Types
Select an item type from the drop-down list to maintain an existing type, or enter a new item code (NOTE: Item Codes can be a maximum of 10 characters) to create a new item.
The length and weight measurements are defaults for the selected type, but can be modified when creating a consignment.
Maintain Receivers
Maintenance > Maintain Receivers
As with the consignment screen, use the Select field to locate a receiver. The details recorded in the Receiver database are default values, but can be over-written in the consignment screen.
Service and Account are linked to Carrier, so to set a default value for these fields, you must first set a default Carrier.
