File to Use

Use this field to indicate which file you want the system to use when selecting items and information to print on the RLA or RBL report.

• For price labels, select one of the following files:

• • Inventory FileSelect this option when you want to print labels for a range of items from your inventory file. For example, you realize that items from a particular vendor have no bin labels.  You'd select the inventory file to print the bin labels, filling in the vendor code as your from/to range.

  • Price Change FileSelect this option to create bin or price labels for items in the Item Price Change file (IPC).  Just make sure you print the labels before finalizing the price changes with the Price Change Report (RPC), option F.

  • Purchasing FileSelect this option if you want to print bin or price labels for items being received through Purchasing and Receiving.  You can print labels for items you received manually, or items you received with Electronic Receipt Posting (ERP).  Just make sure you print the labels before finalizing the PO with the Receiving Report (RRP) option F.

  • Transfer FileSelect this option if you want to print bin or price labels for items being received at your store due to an interstore transfer.  You can select a single transfer by entering it in both the "from" and "to" transfer fields that displays on the from/to page of the Price Label Report (RLA)..

• For bin labels, select one of the following files:

1. • Inventory FileSelect this option when you want to print labels for a range of items from your inventory file.

   • Promotion FileSelect this option if you want to make sale signs.  Make sure you set up the option "Default Promo Label format used for Windows Label Printing" so the system knows which label to use when printing bin labels from the promotion file.

   • Item Change fileSelect this option if you want to print new labels whenever an item's description or mfg. part number changes, or when a new item is added.  To use the Item Change file, the option "Allow printing bin labels in RBL for the Item Change File must be set to Y in Options Configuration.
     
     
     Item Change records are purged as soon as bin labels are printed for those changes, even if they are printed using a file other than the Item Change file (such as if you select the Price Change file or the Purchasing file when printing bin labels).
