Enter the number of desired decimal places (2-6) in your selling prices.

Select Yes if you want Micronet to use free stock rather than actual stock on hand for purchasing, overstock and understock calculations for reports and inquiries.

Select how Micronet should calculate free stock:

• Ordered – Micronet calculates free stock by adding what is due to come in into the on hand calculations
• Delivered – Micronet calculates free stock by adding only what has actually been delivered.

Notional quantities are used where the sales quantity is different to the ordered quantity for orders - for example, for meat supplies where orders are in quantities and sales are in kilograms, etc. Select Yes if you want Micronet to use notional quantities, or No if you don't.

Select Yes if users can override an item's description during order entry/invoicing time, or No if they can't.

Consignment stock is goods you receive from a supplier but don't pay for until they are sold to a customer. Select Yes if you want to enable consignment stock in Micronet, or No if you don't. Selecting Yes allows users to select an item as consignment stock when they are processing an invoice or credit note.

Select your default method of stocktaking:

• Use Original Stock on Hand
• Overwrite SOH with Stocktake Qty
• Append Stocktake Qty to SOH
• Stocktake with Serial Numbers
• Zero Completed Serial Numbers
• Add to Existing Batches.

For more information about stocktake methods, see "Creating a New Stocktake Batch".

This is normally set to Yes, however the calculation of the new month opening stock figure can slow the End of Month process and adds an extra record to your Product Movement Register audit file. Customers with very large inventory files (over 50,000 items) should check with their Micronet representative to evaluate the impact of this option on their system performance.

Micronet can calculate and display the free stock figures differently in various areas of your system by including or not including certain quantities as required.

This is the free stock figure that Micronet displays during order entry.

This is the free stock figure that Micronet displays during the creation of purchase orders.

This is the free stock figure that Micronet displays during sales inquiries.

This is the free stock figure that Micronet displays during inventory adjustments.

Names of your selling prices 1-8 for Group 1 (wholesale) and Group 2 (retail) customers can be setup and stored either company wide (i.e. one set of sell price names for all items), category wide (i.e. one set of sell price names for each product category), against each supplier, or against each individual item. This field is related to the Sell Price Breaks field on the Invoicing Configuration screen – see "Edit - Program - Invoicing".

Select the order in which you want Micronet to check and display the sell price names for items:

• Item then Category then Company – this option enables the Group 1 Names and Group 2 Names tabs in the Product Category master file so you can enter product category sell price names – see "File - Product Category - Group 1 Names" and "File - Product Category - Group 2 Names"
• Item then Supplier then Company – this option enables the Group 1 and Group 2 tabs in the Supplier master file so you can enter supplier sell price names – see "File - Supplier - Group 1" and "File - Supplier - Group 2".

If you plan to use colour/size matrixes for managing products such as clothing, light fittings, etc., then you have to indicate to Micronet what the part number structure is going to be. This can be set as a system wide configuration or against each colour/size master item.

The options are:

• \y – master item code
• \s – size code
• \c – colour code
• \p# – pad; will pad the next code (item, colour, size) with leading ‘0’ to a max size #
• Abc – free text.

For example: \y text\c \p10\s will result in “MasterItemCodetextColourCode 00SizeCode”.

The typical setup is:

\y-\c-\s

where y is the part number, c is the colour, and s is the size.

For more details on using the colour/size matrix, refer to "File - Colour/Size Table".

If multiple bins has been enabled in the last field, select the order in which you want the bins displayed. Options are:

• Priority
• Bin Location
• Stock on Hand.

If multiple bins are enabled in your Micronet system, use this field if you want Micronet to refresh the bin allocations on invoices, MJC orders, POS dockets, etc. before they are posted. This ensures that if stock levels in the allocated bin change during a delay in processing, Micronet re-allocates the order to the highest priority bin location. To select the transactions where you want Micronet to refresh the bin locations, select the browse button (...) next to this field. Micronet displays the Reallocate Bins screen.

Check the box for each transaction type where you want Micronet to refresh bin allocations, then select the Ok button.

When a transaction of a selected type is posted, Micronet removes the allocated bin and selects a new bin based on the current system bin settings.

Select Yes if you want Micronet to generate automatic inventory numbers when you create new items, or No if you want to allocate inventory numbers manually.

If you selected Yes in the previous field, enter any prefix you want displayed before automatic inventory numbers.

If you have a gift voucher payment type, your gift voucher numbers in Micronet must be at least five characters long (for more information, see "Edit Company - Edit - Payment Types".) If your gift vouchers numbers are smaller, you should enter a prefix in this field that will make the voucher numbers five digits long. For example, if gift voucher numbers are three digits, you might enter GV to produce gift voucher numbers GV001, GV002, etc.

Select Yes if your company uses barcodes in EAN13 format. This only works with the specific EAN13 barcode font supplied by Micronet (ean-13.ttf). If an EAN13 barcode only has 12 characters, a check digit will be added.

If you are using automatic EAN13 barcodes, enter any prefix you want displayed before those barcodes.
