You may want to set up specific "jobs" in your integrating application for certain routine sales. For example, you could create a job for all the parts and labor required to perform a tune-up. Then you could quickly perform a lookup on the items listed in the job without having to look up each item individually.
To set up a job, select the required parts and labor items used in LaserCat and send them to your integrating application. Your integrating application will allow you to access dialog boxes for selecting descriptions of groups, part and labor categories, and tire sizes.
To select a catalog description, do the following:
Open the appropriate dialog box from your integrating application.
Type a description that best fits the part or operation you want to look up. You can type all or part of a word, or type more than one word.
For example, type the words brake pad.
Click the magnifying glass button.
The Description scroll box lists displays only those entries containing the word or letters that you typed.
Find the appropriate description from the scroll box.
You can also type additional words to further refine your search.
Click OK.
LaserCat 3 displays a success dialog box and sends your selection to your integrating application.
To view the descriptions that you have set up, open the Show Categories and Groups dialog box from your integrating application.
