Understanding the Document Line Checker Notifications

The line checker is a column found in the Lines Sub-Page of the Jobsheet, Sales Quote, and Sales Order. It provides warnings regarding any Item or Labour added to the lines, ensuring the user is alerted to any errors, warnings, or relevant information associated with the added item or labour.

In this article, we will look at what they actually mean and the implications of posting the document:

Line Checker in Technician Jobsheet

The Technician Jobsheet allows the technician to see notification about Item Unavailability as well as whether a substitute for the item exists. The following is how the notification appears and what the technician should do to view it:

  1. If a line has a notification in the line checker, the icon appears in the Show Document Lines action, and when clicked, it displays the lines with the notification in italic and bold for the Item No., as shown below.

  2. When the technician selects the line with the italic and bold Item No., they will now see the icon notification on the Check field. The technician needs to click on the icon to find out what the notification is about.
