Configuration: Parts Highlighting
Use Parts Highlighting or Parts Requisition Highlighting to apply row highlighting to part numbers based on the criteria you select. Once configured, highlighting appears on transaction detail screens—not on the Executive Summary.
-
Rules on the Parts Highlighting screen apply to the Parts Invoicing Details tab.
-
Rules on the Parts Requisition Highlighting screen apply to the Work Order Parts Requisition Details tab.
You can specify the conditions to be highlighted and what colors to use. For example, you can highlight parts with negative on-hand quantities, those with no bin location, or parts that have had zero sales in the past twelve months. These conditions are highlighted by the colors you specify.
Parts Row Highlighting Example on the Parts Invoicing Details tab
When multiple rules are configured, the system applies the first matching rule. Therefore, you should list the most important rules first. Use the Move buttons to arrange the list.
Also, do not define too many rules.
To open the Parts Highlighting screen Navigate to Configuration > Parts > General > Parts Highlighting.
The highlighting rules you configure on this screen apply only to the Parts Invoicing Details tab. They do not apply to Work Order Parts Requisition Details or the Executive Summary.
