Override Maintenance - Launch Workstation/User
Override Maintenance - LaunchUse this screen to launch the Workstation/User Override Maintenance program where you set up the printer information for all the workstations/computers and all sessions for those computers for a specified company and location.
If
you are using network workstations or TCPIP connections and the device
descriptions are dynamically allocated, it is necessary to set up printer
information by the user. To do this, enter the user's ID in the
Workstation field instead of the
workstation ID, and enter the printer information based on where that
user's transactions should print.
To have the system set up the print information by user, the Device ID in the system MUST start with QPADEV (the default of dynamically assigned devices), and control record VRTDEV needs to be set to Y.
When the system is set this way and a user with an override profile that was set up in this program signs onto a workstation with a Device ID that starts with QPADEV, the program updates the workstation's description (if one exists) or creates a new workstation record with the printer information from the user's profile. This happens each time a different user (with an override profile) signs onto that workstation.
The user's profile also overrides the Corporate Access and Initial Menu settings for the workstation when they sign on.
The
following default workstations must be created for each location:
*BARCODE - Used as the default when printing bar code labels from either the inventory system or the purchasing system.
*CRTINV - Used from the Create Invoice option.
*CYCLEBILL - Used as the default for all cycle bill invoices.
*DFT - Used if no other record is found for the print option being run.
*FAX - Used to determine the output queue and forms ID name for fax jobs using Fastfax®.
*FAXICS - Used by companies that fax via ICS software.
*PICKUPTKT - Used when issuing or reprinting a pickup ticket.
*PO - Used when creating a purchase order.
*RESERV - Used when creating or reprinting a reservation.
*STATEMENT - Used when creating or reprinting statements.
*TRANSFER - Used when creating, reprinting, or receiving a transfer.

Access this program from the System File Maintenance menu. Enter either a workstation ID or a user ID along with the company and location in which the profile is being set up. Press Enter to advance to the maintenance screen.

If you
are using network workstations or TCPIP connections and the device descriptions
are dynamically allocated, enter a user ID and set up printer information
