Description

The settings tab 'WMS Purchase Entry' contains settings specific for the 'purchase entry' process in E-WMS. This module allows you to scan items to be ordered, and then read these item requirements back as new Exact Globe Next purchase orders. Besides these module settings, also hand terminal settings have to be configured.   

Communication
This setting determines the default method of reading transactions from the mobile devices. This document provides more information on E-WMS communication methods.

Ask user
When enabled, at each 'read-back' in the control center, the user is able to choose the communication method through a pop-up window. Under normal circumstances this option should be disabled. In practice this option will be used when you are communicating with different types of hand terminals - for example wireless ASP hand terminals, and also with CAB Activesync hand terminals (it is not recommended to use several communication methods in the same database).

Scan code
Determines how an item is identified after scanning an item- or scan code in the 'item' field. This document provides more information.

Printer
This is the default printer used when printing E-WMS reports; this document provides more information.

File name
See document WMS 'file name' settings.

Report settings (all sections)
See document WMS reports.

Printed
Determines what status a purchase order should have, after reading back from the scanner.
When enabled, the purchase order will have status 'processed' (printed)
When disabled, the purchase order still has to be printed manually.
