Company Set-up

This document describes the process and the required screens to be used in setting up the information for the Company running the warehouse. Other guides describe the set up of the warehouse, owners, etc.

This is a generic guide based on the version of the CALIDUS WMS system at the time of writing.

Panel	A panel on a form contains data to be viewed or entered.
Button	A clickable button. Denoted in this guide as bold.
Field	Data that can be displayed or entered is referred to as a field. This is the core of where you will view or enter information within Forms. Fields are described by Labels and usually come as a pair. These (and labels) are denoted in this guide as italics.
Table	When there are multiple data to be shown in a group, those records are usually displayed in a table. Tables allow showing multiple fields in columns, are scrollable vertically and sometimes horizontally, will have buttons for title labels if the columns are sortable and may allow configuration, usually through a Configure button, which will take you to WHS0909.
Label	A label is the annotation of the field being displayed and typically tells you what it is. CWMS supports multi-lingual labels in a lot of forms.

As menus in CWMS are pretty much completely user configurable, this may have less meaning than you would like in your system, and we generally refer to these on what we call the standard menu structure.
Control Bar; Format bar	The control bar for searching, inserting and pretty much doing anything within the selected Oracle form. See System_Navigation_Guide#Format_Toolbar for more information.
Key; Function Key; Shortcut Key	Alternative terms for a keypress on your keyboard. In this guide, these are denoted with fixed width text in a box e.g. F4
