Enhancements
CrossMaster-HD
CrossMaster-HD, a quick cross-reference tool for finding part
numbers and their cross references, has been totally redesigned
with easy-to-use Legend-style navigation. It has also been updated
with more than 2,000 vendors, 1.7 million part records, and 7
million crosses. CrossMaster-HD can be accessed through numerous
fields in Part Number Display (IN601), Parts Order
Entry/Processing (PO120), and Repair Order Entry/Processing
(RS120), to allow you to quickly look up cross references in
inventory. You can also control which CrossMaster-HD prompts
appear within these programs, as well as whether or not inventory
should automatically be checked.
Price file transport
Allows Karmak to process price file requests from your Legend
system and send the price tapes as zipped (compressed) files. The
files are sent via File Transfer Protocol (FTP), unzipped on your
business system, and then put into their proper directory, making
it faster and more convenient to update your price files.
Cross Reference file import
A new program for Versions 5.7 and 5.7-1 allows you to import
an Excel-generated file of cross reference records. After the file
has been imported, you can choose to print a trial run so the
cross references can be verified before actually updating the
Cross Reference file. You may also choose to do a complete run,
which prints a complete listing and updates the Cross Reference
file. Once the program is submitted to the batch process, the Cross
Reference Import Listing (CR916) report is generated.
Core cost
The Legend system now requires a cost to be entered in Parts
Order Entry/Processing (PO120) and Repair Order
Entry/Processing (RS120) for a core part, which prevents core
returns with a cost of zero.
Sales and Accounting Enhancements
Sales Management integration
Version 5.7-1 integrates your Legend system with our new
ProfitMaster Sales Management module. Legend users can now take
advantage Sales Management's advanced deal tracking and processing
features, including Local Purchase Order (LPO) functions. LPOs help you track the true cost of each unit by
attaching orders to vendors or your own departments. The ability
to place a limit on the LPO total, which cannot be exceeded, helps
you control unit costs. In addition, Legend Version 5.7-1
Accounting programs are fully integrated with the Sales Management
module, including floor plan reconciliation, LPOs, and deal forms.
