Look What Alert Can Do!

Welcome to Alert’s weekly feature where we discuss things Alert
does that you may not know about!
Let’s PAWS and learn!

Auto Tax Credit

How many times have you charged tax to a customer, and need it to be taken off the ticket?
Then you’d have to go through the process of crediting the ticket, copying it,
and re-doing it. Did you know that we created a utility to make that process happen with
the click of a button? In the closed ticket, simply go to the Action menu and click
on Create  Tax Credit. A new ticket will be generated with the sales tax taken off!
All your GLs will properly balance and your audit trail will be perfect.

This Week’s Featured Enhancements

Subrental Enhancements

The Subrental module of our rental industry software got a few new enhancements! Let’s look:

We added a print button to the Subrental overbooking screen.

Next, we now show user-entered descriptions of bulk generic rental items.

Transfer Tickets can now be displayed in the Document Center.
The setting is located in Codes & Setup -> Store Parameters -> Multi Store Transfer.

Call the Help Desk or email us at support@alertms.com to schedule your free upgrade!

Alert users hang on every word! We usually have spontaneous
outbursts of applause, an occasional bow by an Alert programmer,
and furious note-taking. (Don’t worry, conference attendees get to go
home with the slideshow for future reference!) Watch this spot for a note about
a featured class or event each week leading up to the conference!

Labor Day

Perhaps our employees will hike out to the Maroon Bells,
like our own  Abe Clinger  did last week. Look at his gorgeous photo!
