Initial Setup

This is the Initial Setup menu. It is used to access Order Entry Initial Setup submenus, and to end the Initial Setup phase.

Initial Setup screen

While you are still in the Initial Setup phase of Order Entry, you can continue to access and change fields on all screens. Once you have established all necessary master files, you may end Initial Setup.

After you select this procedure, the Live Operations phase automatically begins, and certain fields and files may become inaccessible. When Initial Setup is ended, the following changes occur:

• A new menu appears in place of the Initial Setup menu.
• Day-to-day order entry processing can begin.
• Certain fields in the Parameters file become display only and cannot be changed.

Please keep this Initial Setup manual available for reference in case questions arise as to how the application was originally installed.

When you are ready to end the Initial Setup phase, select “End Initial Setup” from the Initial Setup menu. The screen on the next page allows you to end the Initial Setup phase.
