Pre-pack Maintenance
It is useful to be able to define pre-packs that are comprised of a specific size run, color, or any other attribute combination and respective quantities. A pre-pack is not linked to any particular customer or style. It can be utilized with any style as long as the pre-pack attributes match the style attributes. Once used in Sales Order Entry or Purchase Order Entry, Pre-packs are defined as assembled kit items in MAS 500 making processing easier and more efficient.
Style Maintenance
A list of style substitutes can be set up. This list can be accessed during Sales Order Entry.
A user can quickly copy one style to another, assign a new ID, and description, and preserve the rest of the attributes. Attributes can then be revised as needed.
