Instructions Using the Training Module
  • Navigator Bar The navigator bar in the upper
    right hand corner allows you to go to the first,
    previous, next or last slide by pressing the
    corresponding buttons.
  • Go To Menu You may also right click anywhere on
    the screen (except for a button) to get the Go
    To menu.

6
Navigator Bar
  • 1) First Slide- takes you to the beginning of
    the show.

2) Previous Slide- takes you to the previous
slide in the show.
3) Next Slide- takes you to the next slide in the
show.
4) Last Slide- takes you to the end of the show.
7
Go To Menu
  • To the right is the Go To Menu. You may use
    this to go to the previous or next screen, but
    more importantly, you may click the Go button to
    go to other screens.
  • You may also change the arrow, or pointer, to a
    pen and then change the pen color.
  • Lastly, to end the show without watching all of
    it you must click the End Show button.

8
Go To Menu (CONT.)
  • After you click Go you may choose to click
    either Slide Navigator, By Title, or Previously
    Viewed.
  • Go-Slide Navigator- shows you a numbered list of
    all of the slides in the show. You can scroll
    down the list or type in the number of the slide
    you wish to see and it will automatically find it
    for you.

9
Go To Menu (CONT.)
  • Go-By Title- a list of the titles of slides 1-60.
    From here you will be able to choose which slide
    you want to go to by scrolling up and down the
    list of titles. You must use the Slide Navigator
    to get to Slides 61-141 as they are not included
    on the Go-By Title list of slides.

10
Go To Menu (CONT.)
  • Go-Previously Viewed-This takes you back to the
    last slide you viewed. This is particularly
    useful when you use a link or button to get to a
    slide then want to return to the slide you just
    left. The Navigator Bar merely allows you to go
    to the previous slide in the overall order, not
    the last slide viewed.

The Hidden Slide and Custom Show options are
grayed out because they have no use in this
training module.
11

  • Now that you are familiar with the training
    modules options lets go on. You may go back to
    the Contents Screen by clicking the Contents
    button and use the buttons there to go to the
    section of your choice or you may continue taking
    the full tour now by clicking Continue Tour.

Taking Inventories
  • Before life with CheckMate, taking inventory was
    a bothersome, exhausting task that had to be
    drudgingly carried out at least once a month.
    Breathe easy now fellow inventory takers.
    CheckMate has reduced taking inventory to
    scanning bar codes with a portable bar code
    reader and then uploading the data into the
    program for complete analysis. No more time
    wasted on drawn out inventory sessions now you
    can take inventory at laser speed.

57
Portable Bar Code Reader
  • A portable bar code reader is a hand-held device
    that runs a simplified version of the CheckMate
    program and is used to collect data and record
    transactions away from the computer.
  • Prior to using the portable bar code reader, a
    connection called an Initialization must be made
    between CheckMate and the bar code reader. After
    the reader is initialized, you may then collect
    data.
  • When all the data is collected, youll bring the
    portable back to the CheckMate computer. Then
    select Upload and Process, a quick series of
    procedures that will incorporate the new data
    into the CheckMate database.

58
Physical Inventory
  • When a physical inventory is taken on a portable
    bar code reader, you may view, edit, or update
    the inventory by clicking Maintenance then
    Physical Inventory.

Maintaining Database Integrity
  • Just as any motor or other machine working with
    different parts needs regular maintenance to
    continue running smoothly, CheckMate also needs
    to be regularly maintained. The tools to maintain
    the integrity of your database are called Reindex
    and Cleanup.

Lock the System- you must do this before using
any of the tools. When you lock the system, no
other users may use CheckMate until you have it
unlocked again. To lock the system, click on
Utilities, then Lock. The words System Locked
should appear in the upper right corner of your
Main Window. Now you may Reindex or Cleanup.
92
Reindexing Stock Records

    your index files.

INDEX FILE
The index files control the sequencing of your
data. For instance
INDEX FILE
INDEX FILE
INDEX FILE
FOSTER, D.
ALLEN, T.
These records arent in correct order, but after
you reindex,
ALLEN, T.
COSTEA, M.
COSTEA, M.
FOSTER, D.

UNIT OF ISSUE AND CASE SIZE
Unit of Issue is the usual number of items that
you issue for the specific part. CheckMate will
auto-suggest this number as a quantity whenever
you issue this item.
Case Size is the usual number of items that come
in one case when you receive a shipment of this
item. CheckMate will auto-suggest the number you
put here as a multiplier whenever you receive
this item.
114
STANDARD STORAGE/QTY IN
Standard Storage is the usual place where you
store this part. When you receive a shipment of
items CheckMate will automatically place this
storage location in the storage field for the new
item.
Qty In is the number of items you have in stock
at the moment. This number will change
automatically when you receive or issue an item.
115
REORDER/TARGET/CRITICAL
Reorder Point is the point at which you need to
order more items. If the quantity gets lower than
this, you need to reorder.
Target is the optimal number of items to have on
hand. When you reorder, CheckMate will suggest
that you reorder enough items to get you back up
to the target level.
Critical is the least number of items you may
have on hand. When you run a critical report
CheckMate will check if any items have quantities
that are below critical level. It will then show
these to you so you know which items need to
reorder first.
116
ON ORDER/PRICE/COST
On Order is the number of parts you have on order
but have not yet received. The number of parts
you receive from an order will automatically be
deducted here.
Price is the amount of money you sell this part
for, or what a customer pays when you issue him
this part.
Cost is the amount of money you buy this part
for, or what you pay when you receive this part.
117
Common Identifiers
  • A common identifier is a description or quality
    of an item that can be used as a link between
    items with similar qualities but separate part
    forms. A common identifier is also known as a
    group. You can reorder parts by group. Click to
    see Reorder by Group Report.

When you add a part you may enter an identifier
in the group field. If it is a new identifier you
will be asked if you want to add a new group. If
it is in use the part will be linked to the other
parts with the same (or common) identifier in
their group field.
118
Upload and Process
  • Upload and Process is a series of events that
    incorporate the collected data from the portable
    bar code reader into the CheckMate database. To
    do an Upload and Process, click File, Portable
    Bar Code Reader, then Upload and Process. You may
    also do each of these events separately, at
    different times. (click here for more info. on
    Upload and Process).

119
Upload and Process ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
  • The user must do both the upload AND the process
    together when entering collected data into
    CheckMate. If the user only uploads (doesnt
    process), then the next time another upload takes
    place the data will be lost.
  • If the user uploads and does not want to process
    the data right away, he may save the uploaded
    data to a disk by going to the CheckMate root
    directory and copying the file collect.dat to a
    disk/other directory. When the data is ready to
    be processed, the user may copy the file from the
    disk back to the CheckMate root directory for
    processing.
  • If bad data is collected--data that doesnt meet
    the required specifications for your
    program--CheckMate will give some type of warning
    during the process.

PO Status Report
  • After you have printed the PO Status report, you
    will go out with your portable bar code reader
    and start receiving the order (unless you have
    already received the order and are using the PO
    Status report as a discrepancies list for your
    receipt. If that is the case, click here). First,
    however, you must make sure that the portable is
    initialized and ready to go. If you havent
    initialized your reader yet, follow the
    directions here. If you have initialized the
    reader already, click here to learn how to
    receive the order.

Initialize Portable Bar Code Reader
  • To initialize the portable bar code reader, you
    must first go into the Setup window under
    Utilities and select the Reader Port.

132
Initialize Portable (cont.)
  • Next, from the Main Window, click File, Portable
    Bar Code Reader, then Initialize Reader, and you
    will be given complete step-by-step instructions
    on how to initialize your bar code reader.

133
How To Receive Parts
  • Once the reader is initialized, you may begin to
    receive parts by pressing the F2 key on your
    portable bar code reader. Next you will enter the
    PO number. After you do this, press enter and the
    data collection screen will come up.

134
How To Receive Parts
  • Enter stock number (FIC, NSN or Vendor Part
    Number), and then the number of cases, or scan
    the barcode on each box.
  • For catch-weight items, you may scan the barcode,
    then press the key and enter the exact weight.
    CheckMate will add them up for a total weight.
  • Press the Esc button in the lower right hand of
    the bar code reader to return to the Activity
    Selection menu.

135
Discrepancies List
  • Now that you have finished receiving you must
    compare the list of items that were supposed to
    be received with the list of all of the items
    actually received. However, instead of comparing
    the receipt and order yourself, CheckMate will
    compare them and then print a discrepancies list.
  • To see this discrepancies list, go to the PO
    Status report which now, instead of being used as
    a list of expected items, will be used as a list
    of those items which are missing from the order.

136
Other Functions
  • CheckMates other portable functions are Issuing,
    Moving (Move To and Move From on the portable)
    and Count. Click on one of these activities for

How To Issue Parts
  • Once the reader is initialized, you may begin to
    issue parts by pressing the F3 key on your
    portable bar code reader. Next you will enter a
    Work Order number if one is available. After you
    do this, press enter and the data collection
    screen will come up. All of the information that
    you need to enter for each part will be on this
    screen part location, part number, quantity,
    serial number and multiplier (when applicable).
    CheckMate will prompt you to enter each of these
    at the right times. For detailed information on
    issuing parts, click here.

138
How To Move Parts
  • To move a part you must do two things. First you
    must complete a Move From activity. Then you have
    to complete the Move To activity. Move From and
    Move To are F5 and F4, respectively. In a Move To
    or Move From activity, not as much data needs to
    be entered as when you are doing other more in
    depth activities, such as receipts, issues, or
    inventories. All that needs to be entered is the
    part number, location (new or old), and the
    quantity of parts being moved. Move To and Move
    From activities are shown separately on activity
    reports.

139
How To Take Inventory
  • To take an inventory press F6, Count, on the
    portable. After you do this, press enter and the
    data collection screen will come up. All of the
    information that you need to enter for each part
    will be on this screen part location, part
    number, and quantity. When you are ready to take
    inventory, scan the bar codes of the parts that
    are missing and enter all the other information
    CheckMate asks you to enter. After you do this,
    Upload and Process the information and then see

    CheckMate shows as checked out and what you found
    to be checked out.
