Enabling the Business Advisor Queue

In order to collect the inventory and accounts receivable data that displays in Business Advisor, you must enable a pre-built queue called BUSADV. This queue includes the Inventory Valuation report (RIV) and the A/R Aging report (RAG).

The pre-built BUSADV queue is for a single store. If your business is multistore, you must modify the queue (as described below) to gather inventory information for all stores.

Do not run more than one Inventory Valuation Report (RIV) with Option H to gather Business Advisor Data per day. If you run more than one RIV report with Option H in a single day, then the inventory value will be overstated. Contact the Eagle Advice Line if you run RIV Option H more than once in a single day.

  1. From Network Access, at the Function prompt, type SEQ and press <Enter>.

  2. Using the Up or Down arrows, highlight the queue named BUSADV.

  3. Press <Run>.

  4. Press <Tab> to move to the ENABLE column.

  5. Type Y and press <Enter>.

  6. Press <Change>.

  7. Press <End> to exit.

  1. Multistore only:  RIV, one of the Business Advisor reports, includes a Store field that must be modified for multistore. Do the following to modify it:

The Store field for the RAG report displays 1. This is okay, the RAG report will create Business Advisor data for all stores, even though Store 1 displays in this window.
