A Change has been made to how Default Stock Areas are set within ACR. The Default Stock Area option in the Port Parameters screen will now set the default stock area for use for the following menu items:
- All Invoice creation options (Standard Invoice, Standard Credit Invoice, etc)
- All Mail Order creation options (Standard Mail Order, Standard Credit Mail Order, etc)
- Point of Sale
- All Order creation options (for both Domestic and Overseas ordering. Including from Min/Max and from History)
- Manual Stock Receipt
- Manual Delivery Docket
- Process Electronic Invoice
- Process Danks Invoice File
- Goods Returned
This will now allow for a port (computer) to be set to use any available Stock Area as its default stock area, rather than being able to only set the default stock area for sales only. As each port is able to have a different Default Stock Area set, it allows greater flexibility in use of the ACR system.
To set the Stock Area you would like to use as the default, simply open the Port Parameters menu item on the Port and change the Default Stock Area. Log out of ACR and log back in for the new default to take effect.
Note: All ports have a default set in Port Parameters currently. It you use multiple Stock Areas it is advised to check the default Stock Area that will be used on a port.
Users in the Administrators user group are now also able to access the Port Parameters screen from within the above menu options by clicking: File > Properties > Port Parameters.
