    Setting User Preferences?

    by CourtneyNHS » Tue Jul 28, 2009 6:00 pm

    Hello,

    I was wondering if there is a way to set the user preferences on the way screens are shown. For example often times I am working only with the cost information in the PO screen so I scoot the cost column over next to the description & quantity received. Sometimes I adjust the Column width to fit the info i am using. Is there a way to lock this in so that when I close the window and come back to it it will remember that preference?

    Another thing i found happening is when I would make these adjustments to column width and placement and then close the window and come back to it later the column widths would remain as i had left them but the columns went back to their old placement. Causing me to have to manually stretch columns back out and then move them out of the way again.

    Am I doing something wrong?

    I'm hoping for an easy solution that will allow me to lock in my preferences and change them when i need to without affecting the rest of the Retail Edge computers on the network.

    Thanks,
    Courtney Karnes

    As you have seen RetailEdge will save the column widths for a particular Manager screen. In addition, the active tabs like Sales or Sales Items or House charge in the case of the Customer Manager are also saved. So that when you open a Manager screen, the view you had will be displayed. This is saved on a per workstation basis.

    The only thing that does not get saved currently is the column order. This is a suggestion that has been made and is in the list.
