"Titles Maintenance" should be used when it is necessary to modify the information on a title or catalog inventory record.
Note: You may also use "Titles Maintenance" to create new catalog inventory records; however, it is highly recommended that you use "New Catalog" to create the catalog record and "Receive Inventory" to receive new quantities or "Receive PO" if you are using the Purchase Order module.
Note: To finalize a save on all changes and additions to all tabs, the Save button on the lower left of the "Titles Maintenance" tab must be clicked.
Note: All quantity and cost adjustments made in "Titles Maintenance" will affect General Ledger; however, if it best to change cost when receiving inventory in "Receive Inventory" rather than modifying it in "Titles Maintenance". It is also best to transfer out quantities using "Transfer Inventory Out" rather than manually changing the quantity in "Titles Maintenance" as a more accurate record is then kept in the inventory history.
"Titles Maintenance" consists of the following five tabs:
- Description Info: The 'Description Info' tab contains the primary information on titles or catalog inventory. There is just one description record for each catalog number, regardless of how many store locations you have. The fields that appear on the 'Description Info' tab are the same that appear in "New Catalog". Refer to "New Catalog" for an explanation of these fields.
- Detail Info: The 'Detail Info' tab contains the information that is location specific, such as quantity, reorder quantities, cost and pricing information. The fields that appear on the 'Detail Info' tab are the same that appear in "New Catalog". Refer to "New Catalog" for an explanation of these fields.
- Vendor Info: The 'Vendor Info' tab contains the vendor information for each vendor you receive the inventory item from.
- TOC: The 'TOC tab' contains the individual titles if the inventory item being established contains multiple individual titles. These titles will be included in searches performed in "Display Inventory".
- Active-e: The 'Active-e' tab contains information that pertains to the Active-e technology. If you are using Active-e, refer to the Active-e documentation for the information found on this tab.
