Searching for Items with Quick-Look Codes

A quick-look code can be any combination of numbers or letters that’s easy to remember. Many dealers use quick-look codes as a way to look up tire sizes without having to type slashes or letters. Searching with quick-look codes is helpful at point of sale.

To search with quick look codes

1. Select Maintenance from the Inventory menu. The Custom Inventory Lookup screen appears.

Tip: To reuse the codes from a previous search, click Past Lookups and make a selection from the drop-down list.

2. Click the tab you want to use for the search.

3. In the 3-Quick Look row, click the Start field and type a full or partial quick-look code.

Tip: Clicking Clear removes the quick look code from the screen.

4. To use different sort codes for the search, type the letters or numbers for the codes in the Sort field.

Note: You can use up to four of the sort codes displayed to the right of the Sort field. When a sort code cannot be used to perform a task or organize information on a report, it’s disabled.

5. Select or the following check boxes as needed:

To include active items in the search, make sure the Active Items Only check box is selected.
To include discontinued items in the search, make sure the Include Discontinued Items check box is selected.
To display the items from the highest to lowest order on the Inventory List, select the Descending check box.

Note: Because TireMaster is designed to always display quantities from highest to lowest, the Descending check box is disabled when the letter Q is the only code entered in the Sort field.

6. Click OK. The Inventory List appears.

7. Select an item and click OK.
