After successful conversion of the advice file, you can view or print the advice data if required.
A printed advice note contains the following information:
Order number
Date
GRN number
Part number
Description
Qty. advised
Bin location
Note: If the manufacturer does not provide a bin location on the advice note file, the software uses the main bin location from your stock file. This allows bin listings to be generated from the converted advice file. Parts advised that do not appear on the stock file will have a location of NON/STK.
