Tip

Product Status is now colour coded is some cases as per the key shown above. Readysell has also made our new conditional formating formatting feature all users. So you can add additional colour rules to lists views and transaction lines yourself. See Changing the formatting on lists using appearance rules


Tip

Purchase runs for Back Orders Only should include products that are on sales back order, no mater what there status is as long as you have flagged to include the extras like Indent Products and Obsolete Products. So if you want to only purchase a product by sales back order. Set the status to Obsolute and set the ignore updates flag on the product to not update product status from the price book

If the flag is turned on on a purchase run to Always Purchase Back Orders means even if the back order purchase is on an outstanding purchase order, order it again.


Info
titlePlease note

When setting the status to Indent the Ignore Status field will be flagged as True. So when an automatic product up is done the status of the product will not change.


Tip

On all Purchase Run Types, other than Back Orders Only, the tick box/flag is greyed out for Include Indent Products.

If you need to include Indent products in your existing and new purchase run sets, change the Purchase Run Type to be Back Orders Only, turn on the flag for Include Indent Products and then change the Purchase Run Type back to be what was originally set in there.  Save your changes.  This will make sure that Indent products are then always included in your purchase runs.
