NSC | How to Apply the General Preference "Maximum Entries in Dropdown" to Inventory Detail

edited Oct 21, 2022 4:44AM in Accounting / ERP

Scenario

When setting up Inventory Detail in transactions, users may right away view the list of Inventory Numbers/Bin (or other details) in the dropdown list or a separate list pops up depending on the preference set in Home> Set Preferences > General > Maximum Entries in Dropdowns field.

Solution

In the Maximum Entries in Dropdowns field, users enter the maximum number of records that they want to appear in dropdown lists. When a list has reached that limit, the list will pop up in a window of its own. The highest number users can enter is 500.

See the illustration below:

The Maximum Entries in Dropdowns 10, and the user needs to populate Inventory Details, specifically Serial Numbers, for a transaction.

Howdy, Stranger!
