- How do I see the entire inventory? (Not just one account at a time)
- It's very easy to see ALL of the inventory. When on the Consignment Entry view and looking at any account, go to the Records menu at the top of the screen and choose Records > Show All Items. Now you'll see every item in the order it was entered into the system. If you want to sort by account, simply click on the header of the Account column in the Consignment Entry view to do so.
- What is the difference between the Item Price Tag and Batch Price Tag options?
- The difference between Item Price Tag and Batch Price Tag printing is that the Item Price Tag option will print only the current record you have selected in the Inventory List, while the Batch Price Tag will print all of the items you are looking at.
- What does the Fee column in Inventory do?
The Fee column in the inventory views can be used to take out any fees associated with a particular item. This is useful in the case clothing needs to be drycleaned or a piece of art/furniture needs to be fixed, at the consignor's expense.
So let's say you have a 60/40 consignor/store split for sales and you price an item at $100 and assign a fee of $5. When the item sells, let's assume at $100, the consignor will be owed $60 minus the $5 fee = $55.
