how many orphaned core part sku's do you have ?

Wonder how many orphaned core parts you have with no matching part number .... run a 8-15 3 dot 6 and your report will spit out quite a few. These problems happen when something goes wrong at the DC more often than not. You are left with old sku's of cores.

9 times out of 10 this is not that important - but on that one time when you ADD the part --the part will not link properly with the EXISTING core --and you will sell the part without the core being charged ... there is not easy way to fix (normally) so you go to the 3-2 and manually delete the CORE part number (if the report says ..... AAA 12345 is missing .... you delete the AA9 12345 part number. Try 10 then re-run the 8-15 3-6 to see it works .... last time we ran it we had 200 parts but in past years we have had a TON of parts show up .... how is your list ?

Decimal key shortcut

This tip from Abe Enns at Petes Paint & Parts ---thanks Abe for sharing it .....Just a little short cut that I came across while closing a point of sale. If you are more comfortable using the number pad on the keyboard, then try this. When you are ready to close an invoice and you are ready to push either F2, F3, or F4, push the decimal button and that will get you right to the form of payment options at which you can type what form of payment you want and close the invoice. It saves having to look down at the keyboard and looking for the F keys. I find it saves a bit of time.
