 
			   DAYO INVENTORY TUTORIAL
 
 
     To start, make sure your computer is on.  Once the computer is on you
should see the Dos prompt.  Refer to your Dos User Manual for further
information on Dos.  If you have the DAYO Menu you can start by typing
<CD\DAYO> and press <Enter>.  Next, type <DAYOMENU> and press <Enter>.  This
will start the DAYO Menu and you can enter the DAYO Inventory program from
here.  Locate the DAYO Inventory program using the arrow keys on your keyboard
to scroll through the list of programs until DAYO Inventory is highlighted on
your screen.  Press <Enter> to select the program.  If you do not have the DAYO
Menu you can start by typing <CD\DAYOINV> and press <Enter>.  Next, type
<DAYOINV> and press <Enter>.  This will start the DAYO Inventory program.  Once
in this program, you will need to know how to do a few basic steps such as
creating a purchase order or creating a vendor.  This tutorial will demonstrate
this for you.

 
			 How do you create inventory?
 
     From the main menu choose the option INVENTORY by pressing the number <1>
or use the arrow keys on your keyboard to scroll through the menu options until
the INVENTORY option is highlighted.  To add a new piece of inventory to your
inventory list press the <Ctrl> key and the <N> key at the same time.  Enter
the item information at the prompts.  After each individual detail line for the
new item, you will need to press the <Enter> key.  The new item is now a part
of your inventory list.  If you would like to edit an items price, cost, retail
or quantity press the <shift> key and the <F1> key at the same time.  You will
need to supply a reason for the change to exit editing.  Press the <Enter> key
when you are done.  If you would like to enter more inventory then repeat the
previous steps, otherwise press the <Esc> key to return to the main menu.

 
			  How do you create vendors?
 
     From the main menu, choose the option VENDORS by pressing the number <3>
or using the arrow keys to scroll to and highlight the menu option VENDORS.
Press <Enter> to select it.  Now press the <Ctrl> key and the <N> key at the
same time to add a new vendor to your vendor list.  Enter the new vendor's
information at the prompts.  Press the <Enter> key after each detail line for
the new vendor.  You just created a new vendor.  If you want to change the
vendor information in any way, just highlight the vendor by using the arrow
keys and then press the <F2> key.  Change the necessary information and then
press either the <Page Up> key or the <Page Down> key to save the information.
If you need to add or edit more vendors just repeat the steps, otherwise press
the <Esc> key to return to the main menu.





		       How do you make a purchase order?
 
     From the main menu, you will choose the option PURCHASE ORDERS by pressing
the number <4> key or using the arrow keys to scroll and highlight the PURCHASE
ORDERS option on the main menu.  Press <Enter> to select this option.  To
create a new purchase order, press the <Ctrl> key and the <N> key at the same
time.  Next type in the vendor and press the <Enter> key.  If the vendor is new
you will need to type in the name, address and other information that relates
to the vendor.  Press the <Enter> key after you enter each item of the vendor.
If the vender was previously entered, then the vendor's information will
automatically show on your screen.  After you have entered the vendor's
information or have chosen a vendor, another screen will "pop-up".  This screen
is where you add the detail or items you want to purchase to your purchase
order.  If you do not have any inventory you will need to press the <Ctrl> key
and the <N> key at the same time so that you can create some inventory.  Press
the <Enter> key after each inventory entry.  Once created, the item will be
added to your inventory.  If you already have some inventory then press the
<F3> key.  This will allow you to select inventory items from your list of
inventory.  Use your arrow keys or sorting keys listed at the bottom of your
screen to sort through and highlight the needed inventory items.  Press <Enter>
to select the highlighted item.  When you are finished choosing items from the
inventory list, press the <Esc> key.  Now you are back in the 'Add Detail'
screen.  Review your purchase order for errors and when you are satisfied with
it, press the <Esc> key.  You have just created a purchase order.  To print a
purchase order, use your arrow keys to highlight the purchase order you want to
print and press the <F4> key.  Repeat the steps to make another one, or press
the <Esc> key to return to the main menu.  Eventually you will need to receive
the items into your inventory using option number 2 on the main menu;
RECEIVING.  Refer to your DAYO Inventory manual for further information.  When
we instruct you to type a specific response or key combination, we enclose the
response in <brackets> - do not type the <brackets>.
