How to write about something you swore not to disclose ?

Read the title --ok - here goes .... walking a tight rope of ethics - want to remind you about something that we can't tell you how we know ....

Background .... a good buddy and local CARQUEST Jobber - Bob from Walker Rd - constantly impresses me with the points he finds and solves ... we rag on him ( a term of endearment ? ) to post some info on THIS BLOG ..well guess what ..he reminded me of a few posts from 2008 .... remember we didn't get our Exploris machine in operation until 2010.

Some day you will get a way to list the parts on hand with a stocking qty and that you have (for whatever reason ) in system with a DNR ( do not re-order ) flag checked ....

Bob reminds me that once you master theMass Update screen -- use the CLEAR BUTTON -- check the DNR box --then click YES for the STOCKED - the REAL and the ACTIVE -- and then UPDATE.   A caution - as I remind my partners -- if you are too quick and you clear your ON HAND stock qty -- that will result in hundreds of hours in panic while you correct ...so think and be careful.

Bob does this action a couple times a year - and can stop once we all can get the report of parts effected .... some day ....

Hey Bob - more posts please ....
