Program Details

When you first access Account Inquiry, the upper portion of the screen contains a Go to field, which is used locate specific account numbers. The Go to field is case sensitive.

Press F2 or the image\find_shg.gif icon to search for an account number.

You can select the image\filter_shg.gif icon if you want to limit the number of records that appear in the inquiry browser. You can also choose Options-->Filter Values.

The Account view displays by default. From the Windows menu, you can select other windows of information to open. From the Account Inquiry program you can access five views of information in the lower portion of the screen. You can display the following views:

Sync Feature

Sync is a method of connecting the entry programs with information displayed in customer, item and vendor inquiries. It is a helpful feature because it enables you to get real-time information such as customer balances, vendor balances and warehouse quantities, while you are working in entry programs.

You can select the image\unSync.gif icon to change or update the information displayed in this inquiry. When you use the Sync feature, the icon display changes to image\sync.gif. Use this display to note whether your inquiry is in Sync mode.

Inquiries are synchronized on a per user basis. In other words, if you are signed on to FACTS in one window with one name and signed on in another window with another name, it will appear as if the Sync function is not working.
