This feature will allow you to post Invoices, Claims, Job cost Sheets, Picking Tickets, Quotes and Work Orders to a "batch file" for printing.  This "batch file" saves all stored documents until ready to print them.  When printing any of the above-mentioned documents, you will see an option labeled "Post to Batch".  Simply select this option and click the Print button.

Posting Documents to the Batch

1.  Select the document to print.

2.  Select "Post to Batch"

3.  Click Print

When Post to Batch is checked, a pdf file is created in a subdirectory where the RFMS files are located.  The last batch for the workstation for any batch type (Invoice, Quotes, etc.) will remain on the disk until the next time that workstation does another batch printout for that batch type.

For example, let’s say you have a batch named Invoice1.pdf. In the event that the batch fails to print, it is simple to use Adobe Reader to load this batch and print selected pages.

How to retrieve documents posted to batch files

1.  Click Reports and select Batch Print.  A drop-down list will display.

2.  Select the appropriate document by single-clicking.  

Choose the sort order by single-clicking on the field names in the Verbose column. Notice that the Rank number denotes the order of your sort. 

3.  When you have selected the appropriate sort order for this particular document batch, click the print button. The documents will be combined into one .pdf file that will display.
