About

The "Clone" function is more frequently used when initially building a database.  Cloning will simply copy the detail screen of a chosen item to a new inventory code but not the history, barcodes or existing PLU links.  An item can also be cloned multiple times.  It is handy to save time when creating several items which are very similar and simply changing any details e.g. description, costs to suit.

 

Procedure

  1. From the Sysnet Toolbar click on the Stock icon
  2. Highlight the desired inventory item from the LIST and right click to select CLONE  
  3. Select the STOCK GROUP, RECOMMENDED NUMBER prompt and NUMBER OF ITEMS TO CREATE
  4. Select the STOCK TYPE from the dropdown
  5. Press <OK> to continue
  6. Press <OK> at the recommended number prompt
  7. The inventory DETAIL screen will appear to being editing details
  8. Edit the details as required
  9. Tick to save

 

Note:  Save time by cloning a product type multiple times.  Simply enter the number of items to create when cloning then details can easily be edited in the DETAIL view.  Use the function toolbar arrows to move quickly to the previous or next cloned item.
