This option can be used to list the non-bulk rental products for which the product status code should be changed when the equipment is returned on Rental Return or when the pickup ticket is closed in Close Pickup Ticket or exchanged on Exchange by Contract, Exchanges By Customer, or Confirm Exchange Pickup.
The Status Code update action can be set by individual product, to either occur automatically or to force the operator to Verify the update.
Settings in the Divisional Return Parameters control and activate the processing for the Rental Return and Exchanges, including the Stop Auto Status Change For No Rent flag that can be set to prevent the product Status Code from being updated in Rental Return, and Exchange by Contract when the non-bulk rental product has a current status that does 'not allow rental'.
A setting in the Divisional Delivery/Pickup
Parameters controls and activates the processing for the Pickup
Tickets.
If the product status code is updated when the Pickup ticket is
closed, the clerk will NOT be prompted again for the product status
code at the Rental Return.
Product groups can also be designated using Auto Status Code Update By Group.
The prompts are:
Check this box if the change to the product Status Code must be
verified by the operator in Rental Return,
Exchange by Contract, Exchanges By Customer, or Confirm Exchange Pickup.
A screen will display the Old Code and the New Code.
The operator can accept the new code, select another code, or
reject the code change, as outlined in Updating
Product Status Codes.
Note: When the product Status Code is updated in Rental Returns, Exchange by Contract, Exchanges By Customer, Confirm Exchange Pickup, Close Pickup Ticket, Work Orders, or Close Internal Work Orders, only codes with the same "Allow Depreciation" flag can be substituted for the current product status code. This restriction helps maintain a consistent depreciation flag status for each product.
Note: This is not necessarily the current status of the product.
Check List Feature:
This is also activated in the Divisional
Return Parameters.
The Check List can be setup in Product Check
Lists with the appropriate service instructions.
Product Groups must be flagged by Status Code to print the Product
Check List in the Status Code Actions By
Group.
Check List Printers can be used to specify
to which printer the Check List should print. (e.g. Shop Printer,
Wash Bay Printer)
Maintenance & Service:
A setting in the Divisional Work Order
Parameters can be set to generate a prompt to update the
product status code when the service of the equipment is completed
and the W.O. is closed in Work Orders or
Close Internal Work Orders.
This allows the equipment to be flagged as ready to rent again.
If this option is NOT used, the product status code on the
equipment must be updated manually when the service work is
completed. This can be done in Rental
Inventory or Update Product Status
Code.
If the product was not put on a Work Order when the status code was updated at return or exchange, a Time Delay field in the Group window of Status Code Actions By Group can cause the system to record when the product was updated to this status code and will automatically set the item back to the original status code after this time allowance has passed.
