18. After printing the run sheet you can print your Key Label tab and print your Delivery docket/label. What you might consider is cutting the A4 paper in half and printing the delivery labels on the A5 sized paper to save money but everything being delivered must fit of course.
19. Move to the top toolbar and the function.

Note!! You must always tab off the last supply figure entered for it to capture. A handy tip is to watch the total at the bottom alter when you last tab. If you do not tab then that last figure will not capture.

The supply details will automatically carry forward to the next corresponding supply. All you will need to do, if necessary is alter the supply, bulk size and sub agent quantities. This saves you the task of entering in supplies each day that can become a bit tiresome if you rarely alter your sub agent’s supply.
