Default Values

This function allows you to create user defined fields and set defaults values for other fields. This is helpful if you want to populate certain fields with the same value every time, or if you want to keep track of something that is not already in AMS. You may also choose to skip over unused fields.

  1. The first default is User Def 1. This is the first user defined field and is typically used for the receiving location of items. The default is set to WAREHOUSE but it can be changed.
  2. The next default is User Def 2. This is the second user defined field and is typically used for the storage location of items that you received. The default is set to REC FLOOR, or receiving floor, but it can be changed.
  3. The next default is User Def 3. You may use this field if you want to keep track of something that is not already in AMS.
  4. The next default is User Def 4. You may use this field if you want to keep track of something that is not already in AMS.
  5. The next default is Weight. You may enter the desired default value or leave this field blank.
  6. The next default is Cube. You may enter the desired default value or leave this field blank.
  7. The next field is Ship From. You may select your location's DODAAC as a default Ship From address. This DODAAC will be filled in for you when you create outbound shipments, so you do not have to select it each time you ship items.
  8. The Beep Volume controls the sound level on the scanner. You may set it to low, normal, or high.
  9. You may choose to require a signature for tally sheets by selecting the Actual Signature Required box. When this check box is selected, the signature will be required in the Get Signature section of Dispatch.
  10. You may check the Commercial Tracking # required box if you wish to require a tracking number for each scan. This is useful when you have multiple TCNs, each with a different tracking number.
