TJS LAB, CUSTOM CODING DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 3 ■ INTRODUCTION DAYO Orders creates sales orders based on the DAYO Inventory, Customer, and other DAYO databases. Orders can be printed on a standard printer or a Hewlett Packard (tm) Laserjet compatible printer. The order can be printed on a pre-printed form, on the Laser printer in a special laser format, or as a standard/default form. This application is multiuser; capable of supporting many users when used on a PC based LAN/Network. It can, however be run (like all DAYO products), as a 'standalone' application. DAYO Orders closely models itself after the DAYO POS (Point of Sale) application, and is totally integrated with that application. Some of the DAYO Orders highlights are: Multiuser (ie: Novell) Templates Databases are dBase (tm) compatible HP Laser Special Orders Preprinted Orders forms support Standard Orders forms Customer Bill To/Mailing Address Labels Special Customer Pricing (With DAYO Price Book) Margin Discount Off List Fixed Configuration Settings Sales Tax Codes Terms Codes Invoice Type Codes Shippers/Method of Shipment Codes Passwords (with DAYO Passwords) Reports Other DAYO Products: DAYO Inventory Inventory Control, Vendors, Purchasing, Receiving DAYO POS Point of Sales (Billing & Invoicing) DAYO Price Books Special pricing for your customers as well as a wide range of product catalogs/reports DAYO AR Accounts Receivable DAYO AP Accounts Payable DAYO BO Back Orders DAYO EOP End Of Period Posting DAYO Passwords Password protect your DAYO system DAYO Smart Reports A variety of reports pertaining to the above modules DAYOX Network/LAN Index Maintenance Utility DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 4 ■ COPYRIGHT/LICENSE This manual and software is copyrighted with all rights reserved by TJS LAB.

Authorization to distribute the Shareware Version (unregistered) is granted. ■ DISCLAIMER No warrant is made that this software will work in all environments, or with all resident programs and hardware configurations. TJS LAB has tested this software in many environments and found it to perform as expected, however, this software is licensed "AS IS". TJS LAB will not be liable for any damage done to your data, hardware and/or software systems as a result of using DAYO Orders. ■ REQUIREMENTS *** IBM or Compatible CPU 640K memory * DOS 3.3 or above Hard Disk ■ SETUP To setup DAYO Orders, copy the contents of the DAYO Orders floppy disks into a directory on your hard disk (ie: \DAYOORD). If this is the Shareware Version, you need to UnZip/UnArc the files here. When you run DAYO Orders for the first time, it will create all the database, index, and configuration files it requires for operation. If you are using other DAYO modules, be sure to enter the location of these databases into the DAYO Orders configuration. Type and enter 'DAYOQ' at the DOS prompt to run the program (ie: C:\DAYOQ). DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 5 ■ MAIN MENU After a few moments and possibly a reindex, the main menu will appear: DAYO Orders Version 3.0 TJS LAB ┌───[February 1991]──┐ Copyright (c) 1989-1991, All Rights Reserved │S M T W T F S │ ╓────────────────────╖ ├────────────────────┤ ║ 1 ORDER ║ ████▄ ▄█▄ █░ █░ ▄███▄ │ 1 2│ ╟────────────────────╢ █░ █░ █░█░ █░ █░ █░ █░ │ 3 4 5 6 7 8 9│ ║ 2 CUSTOMERS ║ █░ █░ █░█░ ▀█░██░ █░ █░ │10 11 12 13 14 15 16│ ╟────────────────────╢ █░ █░ █▀▀▀█░ ▀█▀ █░ █░ │17 18 19 20 21 22 23│ ║ 3 CONFIGURATION ║ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ │24 25 26 27 28 │ ╟────────────────────╢ ████▀ █░ █░ █░ ▀███▀ │ │ ║ 4 REPORTS ║ └────────────────────┘ ╟────────────────────╢ ╓────────────────────────────────────────────────╖ ║ 5 MISC ROUTINES ║ ║ DAYO ORDERS STATISTICS ║ ╟────────────────────╢ ║ DATABASE NAME RECORDS SIZE ║ ║ 6 EXIT ║ ║ INV.DBF Inventory 1 1K ║ ╚════════════════════╝ ║ ORDERS.DBF Order Header 0 1K ║ Select Option ║ ORDERSD.DBF Order Detail 0 0K ║ ║ CUSTOMER.DBF Customers 309 154K ║ ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ ▄███▄ █░ █░ ▄███▄ ▄█████▄ ████▄ ▄██▄ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █▄▄▄ ▀██▄ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ █░ ▀███▀█░ ▀███▀ ▀███▀ █░ ████▀ ▀██▀ View-Adjust-Create Order The left side of the screen is the actual main menu.

The following configuration settings are the key ones. These settings should be determined and set prior to any creation of Orders! Be sure you understand each option before creating your first order. The default settings may not be what you require! Auto Print Order - Prints Order automatically after completion. Defaults to 'Y' Last Order Number - Your Order numbers will start (default) at '1' unless you change this Order Printer Type - You can select 1 of 3 Order printout types: Standard, HP Laser, or Pre Printed Defaults to STANDARD Order Printer Port - Defaults to LPT1 Order Copies - Defaults to 1 Default Tax Code - Customers with no TAXRATE will receive the sales tax rate associated with this tax code. Defaults to '1' Default Order Type - This becomes the default TYPE (ie: REG), for customers with no TYPE field entered in their customer records. Defaults to 'REG' Default Shipper - This is the default Shipper/Method of Shipment for customers that do not have it entered on their records. Defaults to PICKUP Default Terms - This is the default Terms (ie: CASH, NET 30), for those customers that do not have it entered on their records. Defaults to CASH DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 7 Inventory Location - Defaults to current drive/directory, but may reside in the \DAYOINV\ directory... Customer Location - Defaults to current drive/directory, but may reside in the \DAYOAR\ directory... POS Location - Defaults to current drive/directory, but may reside in the \DAYOPOS\ directory... Price Book Location - Defaults to current drive/directory, but may reside in the \DAYOPB\ directory... ■ KEY INVENTORY & CUSTOMER FIELDS To make it possible for you to create an Order, you must have at least one customer and one item in your inventory. Key fields these customer and inventory records greatly affect the Orders process. For instance, the inventory database (INV.DBF) has the following key fields: The PRICE field obviously determines what is to be charged the customer/ client. The only exception to this is the DAYO Price Book pricing methods. Inventory items can be TAXABLE or not. Apart from the obvious benefit of having the customers name and address, the customer database (CUSTOMER.DBF) also has its important order related fields: The tax rate field (TAXRATE) field determines the sales tax rate to be charged this customer/client. The TERMS field determines how the customer/client is to pay (or not to pay), for the items. For example, a CASH terms customer will pay 'on the spot', whereas a customer with terms of 'NET 30' has thirty days to make payment for the order (later made into an invoice). The SHIPPER field alerts you to how the customer wants the items shipped to him. The TYPE field is perhaps the most important. It is this field that determines how the order data will be posted to the databases after it gets invoiced. There are 8 default order/invoice types, but more can be added. It is imperative that these default TYPE entries NOT be altered. Any additional TYPE entries will be handled (posted), just like the REG (Regular Sale) type. REG - REGULAR SALE Ret - RETURN Ref - REFUND DIR - DIRECT SHIPMENT SPC - SPECIAL LON - LOANED EXC - EXCHANGE TRN - TRANSFER VOD - VOIDED DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 8 The PBM (Price Book Margin) and PBL (Price Book List) fields work with DAYO Price Book to provide special pricing to the customer. ■ CREATE ORDER Okay, time to create an Order! After selecting the ORDER option, the initial Order screen will appear (below). Note that much of the customer information is printed atop the screen. All other customer data is accessible by simply 'browsing' through the customer database; by using one of the FIND function keys (F5,F6,F7,F8), or by using the right/left/PgUp/PgDn arrow keys. There are more fields to the right of the initial screen! Press F1 (for HELP), if you want more information about the special keys involved in a browse screen... ■ ORDER INITIAL SCREEN DAYO Orders Version 3.0 TJS LAB ORDER ┌───[February 1991]──┐ ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ BILL TO: SHIP TO: ║ ║ JOE MORGAN JOE MORGAN WAREHOUSE #34 ║ ║ PO BOX 334366 890 EAST LOWELL ROAD ║ ║ 89033 WINTER PARK STREET ║ ║ CASSELBERRY, FL 34330 ORLANDO, FL 55555-5555 ║ ║ CUSTOMER # TYPE SALESPER TERMS SHIPPER ║ ║ 1234 REG JD COD UPS GROUND ║ ║ PHONE ATTN CREDIT LASTDATE ║ ║ (407) 291-5555 SAM SPELDING 7000.00 12/28/91 ║ ╚═══════════════════════════[ Select The Customer]═══════════════════════════╝ CUSTOMER NAME ATTN ───────────╥────────────────────────────────╥───────────────────────────────── 1 ║ TOM JOHNSON ║ TOM 2 ║ JANICE ICE COMPANY ║ JOSE 3 ║ JOE MORGAN ║ SAM SPELDING 4 ║ MORGAN ENTERPRISES, INC ║ 5 ║ HARRODS ║ DING MING 4 ║ SALLEY MORGAN ║ 5 ║ CATHY MORGAN ║ Esc (Abort/Exit) Enter/Return (Select) F1 (Help) Ctrl N (Add) Find: F5 (Customer) F6 (Name) F7 (Ship To) F8 (Phone) F9 (Zip Code) 1/20 DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 9 ■ SELECT CUSTOMER OR ORDER Select (highlight), a customer you wish to create an order for, then press Enter/Return.

This task can be accomplished by deleting the records from a browse screen, then performing the 'PACK' option from the MISC ROUTINES. Prior to performing this 'clean up', be sure to do a good backup of the Orders databases. The backup is especially important since you will be permanently removing the records. - On occasion (maybe an under statement), index files will get corrupted, especially on networks. To 'fix' a corrupted index requires that everyone 'get out of' the DAYO databases, and then perform a reindexing (actually a recreation of the indexes). The reindex is accomplished by running the DAYO Orders program with a parameter of 'INDEX' (or using DAYO X). ie: C:\>DAYOQ INDEX - If you are on a multiuser network, you must 'flag' (change file attributes) of all files to make them sharable, readable and writable. Note that the command/program 'flag' may be called by a different name on your network. ie: E:\>FLAG *.NTX SRW or just to be safe, go ahead and flag all files in the DAYO directory: E:\>FLAG *.* SRW - Indexes are recreated once every day. This is automatically performed by the first user to run DAYO Orders. This process will take more time as your files get larger. This process should take place daily, but you can run it at night with a batch file that waits until after midnight (ie: DAYO Clock), or a with most scheduling programs. All other users and computers must be out of the databases, or the procedure will not occur properly. Remember to 'flag' the files sharable, readable and writable. - Backups of your data and configuration files should take place daily! You have no doubt heard many scare stories. They are all true! The key files that need to be backed up all have the extension of .DBF, and .CFG. The .DBF files are your databases. The .CFG file(s) contain your configuration information (as seen in the Configuration module). DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 71 - If you are on a network, It is NOT recommended that you use dBase III+ with the databases. It may write an end of file marker not always recognized by DAYO. Appending additional records to the database after this point often leads/creates a 'bad record' in the database. - If you must use dBase (tm) with DAYO Orders, and you are on a PC based network/LAN, be sure to SET EXCLUSIVE OFF before you open ANY databases. This will allow the opened databases to be shared, and more importantly, prevent a user (or all users!) from 'crashing'! - If the SIMPLE EDITOR tends to 'hang' your CPU, even on small files, then do not use it... Hope to fix this 'feature' with the next upgrade... - If you require an additional decimal for your taxrate (ie: 0.0625), then you will have to modify the TAXRATE field in the databases TAXCODES.DBF, INVOICE.DBF, ORDERS.DBF, CUSTOMER.DBF, ARH.DBF. Use the MODIFY DATABASE option in the MISC ROUTINES to change the length from 5 to 6, and the number of decimals from 3 to 4. ┌───────[ MODIFY STRUCTURE: TAXCODE.DBF ]─────────┐ │ FIELD_NAME FIELD_TYPE FIELD_LEN FIELD_DEC │ │════════════╦════════════╦═══════════╦═══════════│ │ TAXCODE ║ C ║ 1 ║ 0 │ │ TAXRATE ║ N ║ 6 ║ 4 │ │ ║ ║ ║ │ │ ║ ║ ║ │ │ ║ ║ ║ │ │ ║ ║ ║ │ │ ║ ║ ║ │ │ ║ ║ ║ │ │════════════╩════════════╩═══════════╩═══════════│ │ Press Enter to edit any field... │ └───────[PRESS Ctrl W TO SAVE AND EXIT]─────────┘ DAYO Orders, TJS LAB Page: 72 ■ TJS 'Computer' LAB TJS LAB is an association of programmers and technicians that produce customized, multiuser software for the PC based network (ie: Novell and others).
