The General Store For Windows

Notice the folder image at the top of the inventory receipts window (circled in red). Click on this
image and it will open as shown above.
Adjustments
If you are using the data to process Inventory Adjustments, you must first select the Adjust or
Replace option at the top of the adjustments screen, before clicking the import file folder icon.
The Adjust option adds to or subtracts from the current on hand quantity, while the Replace
option replaces the current on hand quantity. Once this option is selected, process the import file
by clicking the file folder icon at the top of the adjustments screen. You will be asked if you wish
to verify each item in the METRO.DAT file.
This means that you will have to press the Enter key on your keyboard after each item. Answer
No here most of the time. In doing so, the contents of the imported METRO.DAT file will be
applied automatically. Click the Save button and the receipts will be saved and a receiving report
will be printed.
Purchase Orders
When using the data collector to process a purchase order, you must click the Add button on the
navigational toolbar to create a new purchase order. Then select a vendor to order from. After
these two steps are completed, you can then click the folder image at the top of the purchase
order screen to process the file.
As in adjustments, you will be asked if you wish to process the file with verification, and again,
we suggest that you answer No here most of the time.
When finished with the purchase order, click the Save button to save the purchase order. You
can also click the Print button to print the purchase order before exiting the purchase order
function.
