Summary
It is possible to configure your Logistics Planning screen to suit your needs by changing the Headings on the main job list page. This article explained how to add\change these heading.
More Information
Go to " Logistics Management Maintenance Options Parameters Planning Display Customisation".
- This shows a screen with the following headings:
Field Width Heading Line/Item
These columns have rows (down the page that are numbered 1 to 15. This relates to the number of columns across your Planning Screen. The sections below explain how all these fields work.
 | Tip: It is possible to Add a Blank line for a new row by pressing <S+F10> and rows can be removed by pressing <F10>. |
Field
Each Possible field is assigned a number (E.G. 04 = Text 1 (Line 1 - 5).) These numbers and be increased by pressing <F1> or decreased by pressing <S+F1> or the relevant number can be simply entered if you know it.
 | Information: Adding a number here will auto fill the rest of the fields with their Default information for that particular item. |
Width
This is the width of the column that applies to the selected item (E.G. as the 1st line of the remarks field is 30 Characters wide this would say 30)
| Tip: If you want to get more columns on your Planning screen you can reduce the amount of space a field takes you can reduce it E.G. in the example above of our 30 Character Remarks line if you only need 15 Characters of this you could set the width to 15 to give you more space for other things. Be aware you WILL only see 15 characters of the field and thus if more are typed they WILL NOT appear. |
Heading
This is the Title that will appear in the to of the Planning screen (E.G. for 04 = Text 1 (Line 1 - 5) this would appear as REMARKS as this is what is configured in the "Prompt Customisation" Screen. See below in the see also section for "How do I Change my Job Entry Prompts?" or click Here
It is possible to change this if required, if for example you needed to shorten it you could make this REM to make for a smaller column
Line/Item
This is the item number related to some of the fields on the Job Properties screen. One Example of this would be if the second Line of the Remarks Block was set to a heading of AREA, when this field was set to 1 (the default) the heading and content would be REMARKS but when changed to 2 this would then Pickup the Prompt for that Line I.E. AREA.
