Procedures to Follow During Initial Setup

Initial Setup procedures are designed to establish master file records and to help you transfer information from existing records to the Purchase Orders application.

The first step in Initial Setup is to enter master file and historical data for the application. Here is a list of those files:

  • Parameters
  • Terms
  • Vendors
  • Product Classes
  • Warehouses
  • Products
  • Products By Warehouse
  • Products By Vendor
  • Special Instructions
  • Status Codes
  • Alternate Addresses

You should print lists of these files after you enter master file data to ensure that data was entered completely and correctly.

The second and final step in the Initial Setup procedure is End Initial Setup. After you select this menu option, the system begins the Live Operations phase.
