Features
The user must be first given access to view Features in User Security>System Maintenance>Tables: Features.
It's used for setting up guidelines for the sales team to order a product with specific requirements. This is more typically used in the furniture business rather than the appliance business. Here you will define the code of the feature and also outline the description.
You can then set up features to link to a brand in settings 3 of the brand table. Anytime you add a model within this brand, it will automatically populate this feature.
You can also go into an individual model and set up features. This will override the brand features.
In order for the features to flow from invoicing to purchasing, backorders must be turned on in Invoicing Variables.
When first adding a model to the invoice, it will say that the features have not been defined.
You then have to double click into the features box and fill in the necessary information. If you copy the invoice or split it, it'll carry the features you set along with it.
The features will then flow through to the PO when you backorder to the invoice. You can also update the features at the PO level in the case of sales making an error when originally setting it up. Please note that the features you verify on the PO will not update on the invoice however so there will be a discrepancy between the two. It is advised to correct the features at the invoicing level before going to order.
