Entering Account Numbers
In the Optifacts system, account numbers should not be preceded by leading zeros. Leading zeros will be added to account numbers by default.
Entering Values
Values for various materials are input in the fields illustrated below:
Inputting these values is similar to inputting dollar amounts. You must type the decimal point in the numeric entry. For example, if you want to input an entry of 3.5 for the Sphere, you would type 3, the period, and the 5. When you press Enter, the number appropriately aligns within the field. Some fields default to an entry when you Enter through it. Caution: If you do not type a decimal, all numbers typed will fall to the left of the decimal when the Enter key is pressed.
Entering Data in Fields
- The Enter key is used to store data input within a field. If the Tab key is used the cursor will not move, and you will receive an error sound (if your system is configured for sound).
- The Arrow keys can be used to navigate between fields however, the data will not be saved unless the Enter key is pressed.
Date Format
- Dependent on system configuration. IE: DD/MM/YYYY (DAY, MONTH, YEAR). If you enter the date without inputting the 4-digit year, the cursor will not move from the field until the date format is input correct.
