Introduction

This document provides instructions for running monthly Manufacturer Reports.

All the manufacturer reports now run from the Manufacturer Reports Menu. (Menu option 5-10-1). The reports no longer print or save to disk. Retrieve them to a local folder using WinSCP and e-mail them to the appropriate manufacturer. (Refer to the WinSCP documentation for full instructions).
