Creating An Order
Typing in the catalogue number of an item directly
Adding your own specials
Other ways to add items to an order
If you know the Catalogue Number of an item you can type it in and Electrika will automatically do a
search for you. First add a blank item to the order by going to the last entry and pressing the <Down
Arrow> key on your keyboard. Type in a Catalogue Number in the Cat Number column. The
Manufacturers and Local Database will be searched and if an exact match is found the item is copied into
the order and you are taken to the Qty column. If an exact match is not found you are taken to the
Catalogue Number Search window where Electrika has located the nearest match.
You can add your own Specials by typing S under the S column of a new blank item, allowing you to
change all the columns of the item. You can also edit the details of an item that has been brought in from
a manufacturers Catalogue by typing S under the S column to make it into a special. Labels or headings
can also be added as specials.
