Update Transfer Exemptions

When you choose option "C" from the Global Utilities Menu (1), you will arrive at this screen.  

Please note that we already have some data in our test record 

There are two fields here to fill out.

In field #1, you may place any part number that you DO NOT WANT  to be automatically transferred form one warehouse to another when a customer invoice is filed.  Suppose you are a car dealer with several locations and you have stacks of a certain brochure in each location.  When an invoice is produced for a customer, the operator adds a brochure to the invoice, and then accidently chooses one from another location.  You don't need it because you already have a pile in your showroom. By adding "BROCHURE" to this list, you stop the transfer of brochures between locations.

In field #1, you may place a legitimate warehouse or store code.  This will prevent any transfers from being produced from this warehouse whenever a customer invoice is filed.  In a typical situation, you will probably not use this field, but if, for example, you have two warehouses very close together and you have a warehouse manager who is in charge of both, you might not want to produce the transfers from the secondary warehouse to the main one every time an invoice is filed.

Here is an example:  You have warehouse "AA" and warehouse "BB" in the same town.  Warehouse "AA" is the warehouse that you deliver from.  A customer contract is filed, and one of the items is in warehouse "BB".  You don't want a transfer printed from "BB" to "AA", because the warehouse manager will know where the stock is, and does not need to produce transfer paperwork for himself.
