On the Notes tab, the Manufacturing Instructions can be enhanced by using Rich Text formatting features. These features can be used, for example, to highlight important instructions to production staff.
The font type, size and colour can be set to the whole text, or just to specific words or sections. Similarly, text can be made bold, underlined, or italicised.
Rich Text features can also be applied to Bill of Materials Notes and Bill of Materials operations Notes.
Note: Rich Text formatting can be used in Sage layouts, but this requires the layouts to be produced using Crystal Reports instead of the standard Report Designer.
To apply rich text features, highlight the section of text to format then choose from the Rich Text formatting options:
Font Style : Select the preferred font style from the drop-down list.
Font Size : Select the preferred font size from the drop-down list.
Bold : Click to set/unset the selected text as Bold.
Italic : Click to set/unset the selected text as Italicised.
Underline : Click to set/unset the selected text as underlined.
Font Colour : Select the preferred font colour from the palette.

Analysis codes are extra pieces of information that can be added to Bill of Materials. Each analysis code has two parts; a Code for the type of information and a value, or set of Values, that can be applied to each item.
Before setting Analysis Code values on BOM Operations, the analysis codes must be setup in Accounting System Manager and then assigned for use by BOM Operations in the Maintain Operation Analysis Codes screen. Analysis Codes added to this screen will then also be available to the Operation records in Manufacturing System Manager.
For BOM Operations, analysis codes are useful as a way of classifying operations to distinguish between them; or as a way of recording additional information about each operation.
For consistency, and to eliminate duplication of effort, if the BOM Operation line is added from the Operations Register, the value set in each Analysis Code on the Operation record will be automatically copied into the corresponding BOM Operation Analysis Codes as it is added to the BOM.
The Field Label can be set to a different name, which sets the Name that is displayed on the BOM Operation Analysis codes screen. Changing the field label will not affect the Analysis Code value copying from the Operation to the BOM Operation line.
Once analysis codes are setup for BOM Operations, use the Analysis Codes tab on the maintain BOM Operation screen to set values on each BOM operation.
Select Mandatory if all your BOM operation lines must use this Analysis Code. To make an Analysis Code mandatory, you must have specified a default value for this analysis code in Accounting System Manager.
Each operation can be assigned a specific working calendar. The calendar defined against the operation will then be used when calculating production lead times in MRP and when raising new works orders.
To set the relevant calendar you wish to assign to this operation, open the Details tab and update the Calendar field.
When defining Subcontract Supplier information you can enter a KgCO2e value (per each) for the subcontract process in to the Subcontract Suppliers grid KgCO2e column. This will then be used to calculate the Carbon Footprint of the items you manufacture whenever this process is completed on a Works Order.
Each operation can be marked as requiring a Quality Inspection upon completion.
To enable this, tick the Requires inspection upon completion checkbox, you can then optionally choose a specific inspection template to apply to the inspection record.
Whenever a works order operation booking is processed, where there is a quantity complete specified, an operational inspection record will be created and added to the Works Order Operational Inspections List view for processing.
Should a user attempt to book time to a subsequent operation, or log on to the operation via Cim200 SFDC, before the operational inspection is completed, they will be presented with a warning advising them of the outstanding operational inspection.
