Received Item and Record


Screens > Received Item and Record

Effectively the Received Item No (In) and Record Screens are identical. They differ only with the validations they make before opening and the presence or absence of the Date Back field. The Date Back Field will be absent on the Record form.

The Received Item Number Screen (In) is accessed from the Main Actions Menu, by entering ALT-A+R or clicking the  icon on the ToolBar. The screen is used to record the return of equipment that has been sent to an external agency for calibration or maintenance. Before using the In command you must move to the Item Number for which you would like to record the return.

TrackPro will check to ensure that the item was recorded as having been sent out. If it wasn’t sent out you will receive an error message. You will then have to use the send out function to record the fact that the item was sent out before you can get the item back.

The Record Screen  is accessed from the Main Actions Menu, by entering ALT-A-E or clicking the  icon on the ToolBar.
