GLOBAL CUSTOMER FIELD CHANGES

Have you ever wanted to make a change to a field in customer maintenance for a large number of customers?  For example, have you changed your finance charge percentage but dread entering the information for each customer?  Take heart, there is an easier way than editing every record in Customer Maintenance. 

In Accounts Receivable/Setup/Accounts Receivable Utilities, you will find an option called Global Customer Field Change. 

Using this option, MAS90 allows you to modify specified customer fields for a large group of customers.  In the Global Customer Field Change screen, you will make two entries for each of the fields displayed:  Change From and Change To.  At the Change From fields, enter the customer data you want MAS90 to match.  At the Change To fields, enter the new data which you want to replace the existing data.  For example, if you want to change the customer type for customers with type A100 to customer type B200, enter A100 at the Change From field and enter B200 at the Change To field.  If you want to change the field for all customers, select the All check box next to each field to indicate that all data for that field will be changed to the information entered at the Change To field, regardless of the data it currently contains. 

For more information on this utility, please refer to the MAS90 help screen or the Accounts Receivable manual.
