Worksheet 260 should NOT update Quantities

Nov 15, 2005 3 Replies

A worksheet 260 should not update quantities and there should be another worksheet that does that. I have had clients run a 260 for several reason (add alias, change description, etc.) however because the 401 comes after the



260, everytime a 260 is run, it screws up the quantity amounts in the store.

Eric,

Not sure why you think this is wrong, if you browse the manual or help files, you will see that this is how its supposed to work. Very rarely would you ever run a 260. A 260 will send _ALL_ data, including on-hand counts that HQ thinks is correct, to the stores.

If you want to update alias or description, then run a 250.

Sounds like you need a refresher about the different worksheets. HQ Manager | Help | Worksheets | Styles

YOU MUST NEVER USE 260 UNLESS TOLD BY MICROSOFT OR RESELLER. The 260 replaces the dynamic information and should be avoided at all cost.

Use 250 if you have changed description or alias etc... Use 300 series for price etc...

Also we have a HQ Misc Utility that has some task wizards that creates worksheets automatically so you do not have to decide which worksheets to use.

I stand corrected, I didn't know that the 250 would download descriptions and subdescriptions

Thanks
