Using the Item Availability dialog
The Item Availability (IA) is used to view the availability of items controlled by Max4Sale or Points4Sale restrictions within a selected item tree group in Sales. In addition, an operator can add an item to the sale or swap an item already in the sale for another item on the IA dialog.
To set up an action button for IA, use AVA to designate a main Sales button in the [Interface] section in the global .INI. If no main action button is present, an operator can go to Tools > Actions and find the IA button there. To configure the number of rows and columns on the IA dialog (10 rows and 7 columns are the default), use the following .INI settings in [Preferences] .
[Preferences]
ItemAvailabilityRows=9
ItemAvailabilityCols=5
Two security settings directly affect how operators can choose items:
• Sales – Allow operator To See Oversold Max4Sale Items − With this setting an operator sees items on the IA dialog that have reached their Max4Sale or Points4Sale limit. Without this setting, the operator cannot see the items that have reached Max4Sale or Points4Sale limits and, therefore, is not able to sell them.
• Sales – Override Max4Sale Limits − This setting allows an operator to sell items that have reached their respective Max4Sale or Points4Sale limit. Operators who don’t have this setting cannot sell items that have reached their limits.
