How To: Turning B-Flag Serial Numbers On and Off (03-31-98)

Overview

This tutorial describes how to turn serial number items “on” and “off.”

Step-by-Step

  1. From the ‘B-Flag Serial Number Maintenance’ menu (03-31-98):
    1. Enter “1” to turn B-Flag serial numbers “On.” All items with a ‘B’ in the ‘Seq#’ field (Field 30) of Inventory Master File Inq/Maint (03-01) will have the ‘Serial #’ field (Field 6) set to ‘B’ and the ‘Seq #’ field will be cleared.
    2. Enter “2” to turn B-Flag serial numbers “Off.” All items with a ‘B’ in the ‘Serial #’ field (Field 6) of Inventory Master File Inq/Maint (03-01) will have the ‘Serial #’ field set to ‘A’ and the ‘Seq #’ field (Field 30) set to ‘B.’
    3. Enter “3” to run the ‘Load B In Seq# If A Flag Serial #’ option. All items with an ‘A’ in the ‘Serial #’ field (Field 6) of Inventory Master File Inq/Maint (03-01) will have a ‘B’ loaded into the ‘Seq #’ (Field 30) field. This allows these items to be converted to B-Flag serial number items when ‘B-Flag Serial Turn On’ is run.
