Why:

Bulletins are a way of informing a user who is selling a part that there is a special price or a promotion for that part. When a part with a bulletin is added to an order, a message window is displayed to inform the user about the bulletin.

 

Where:

From the Part View, highlight the part and select Part > Open To > Bulletin. This will display the Part Maintenance window for the selected part, open to the bulletin tab.

 

How to Maintain Part Bulletins:

The bulletin tab contains a list of any bulletins already set up for the selected part. Double-clicking a record will display a Bulletin Maintenance window where all the bulletin details are held. Here, certain fields can be updated.

To create a new bulletin, in the bulletin tab select File > New > Part Bulletin. This will display a Create Bulletin window. Input the start and expiry dates for the bulletin and how you want it to be published (immediately on screen or as a notifier to the user). If you want the bulletin to apply to all branches in the company, make sure you select the Company check box.

The narrative is the short description of the bulletin that is displayed in the Part Bulletin View. The larger field beneath the narrative is for a longer explanation of the bulletin and appears in the order entry routine.

To delete a bulletin, highlight it in the list and right click then select Delete.
