Decor 24 User Settings Report

Decor 24 - F13 Function Key (CMS Options)

SuperUser Settings

These settings control the configuration and functionality of DECOR 24 on an individual user. User settings give you the flexibility to limit users to specific accounts and information. They have precedence over the global settings.

When you first access user settings, a screen appears that allows you to pick the user profile you want to work with. You can use F1 to add Decor 24 users.

The Days Since Login setting works in conjunction with settings on DNAV - Online User Settings (D24 2) of the global settings to disable or delete inactive users. User is disabled or even deleted if Last Accessed Date is more than a specified number of days.

The following table provides descriptions of the functions available on the User Profile Selection screen.

Field

Description

User

User IDs should be set up for each operator.

These user IDs are used for Decor 24 only. They are not related to your IBM system user IDs. It is recommended that your Decor 24 user IDs and passwords never be the same as your IBM user IDs and passwords.

Active Status

A Y entry enables the user to use DECOR 24. An N signifies that the user profile is no longer active. This can be useful when you don't want to delete a profile but want to disable it for a limited time.

Email

This is the default email address for the user. It is used throughout the system in places like the Welcome and Reminder screens and in sending price lists.

Default Account#

This field contains the default account number (from your core system's Billto File) for the user. If the user is setup as a Super-User, and has access to multiple accounts, this value will change to the account the user is currently working with. You can search all the current accounts by entering a ? in the field and pressing Enter.

Super-User Flag (*ALL)

By Co#/Salesperson#:

By Multiple Accts

These three settings let you decide the level of account access this user will have. Only one of these settings can be flagged Y. If more than one is flagged Y an error message will display.

Super-Users

Super-users have access to all the accounts on your system.

Co#/Salesperson#

You can limit user access by company and salesperson number.

Multiple Accounts

Lets you choose which accounts to give a user access to.

Default Warehouse

Leave this warehouse field blank if you want Decor 24 to use the account's warehouse (from the Billto File) as the default warehouse.

If this warehouse field is filled in, it is used as the default warehouse for this user throughout Decor 24, instead of the account's Billto File warehouse.

D24 Admin This setting allows users to create new D24 accounts.
Contact Admin Allows users to create new contacts for the Billto accounts assigned to their user record.
Payment Profile

These codes are created via menu option PAY 1 and dictate the level of access that a D24 user has for making online payments via Heartland or another third party payment system.

Presentation Code

This field contains the Presentation Code that the user is setup to use when accessing Decor24.

Presentation settings control the appearance and functionality of the DECOR 24 web pages. Some of the things you can do with these settings are:

  • Customize the logo that appears on the page

  • Direct your users to the correct help and home links

  • Change and customize the entries on the left side of the page

  • Change the title of almost every link

  • Change the titles on the search boxes

  • Customize the error and warning messages that appear during Decor 24 operation.

Default Rolled Goods U/M

Handling Charge or Discount applied to ALL orders

Use this field to add or subtract a percentage from all orders placed on Decor 24.

To apply a discount, the percentage value MUST be a negative value (1.50-). So, when keying in value, use the Field-Minus key.
Allow Order Entry Access Use this flag to tell Decor 24 whether or not to allow Order Entry. If N is selected, then all Item searches will be merely for inquiries.

Allow Multiple Sessions per User

When a user logs into and starts using Decor 24, the user name and a session number are validated by Decor 24. This combination of the validated user name and session number are required to use the Decor 24 web services.

Prior to the introduction of this setting in 2013, a user could only sign into one Decor 24 session.

If the setting is activated:

  • User will be able to sign into multiple sessions using the same login.

  • The shopping cart is user specific and is shared by all active sessions.

  • The session that checks out will include all the items in the shopping cart when they check-out their order.

  • After check-out the shopping cart is empty in all other sessions.

  • If one session changes the default Account#, then all other open sessions will adhere to that change. The other sessions might need to refresh their views to see the change.

If the setting is not activated:

  • Decor 24 will restrict users from signing in multiple sessions using the same User ID.

  • Users of Decor 24 webservices are blocked from accessing the services if there is an active Decor 24 session for that User ID.

Press F11 to proceed to the rest of the user settings. These settings are the same as the ones that comprise the respective screens of the DNAV - Online User Settings (D24 2).

Decor 24 User Settings Report

This report, which produces a spreadsheet, gathers user information from the Decor 24 User Settings (menu option D24 2) and the Billto File.

The report is accessed via the F10 - Listing function on the Decor 24 User Settings (D24 2) window.

The following information is included on the spreadsheet:

This report is accessed via the F10=Listing function on the initial screen of the User Settings File (D24 2).

The only screen in this process allows you to choose how to distribute the report.

The Destination Folder is the IFS directory where you want the spreadsheet to be placed. Once the spreadsheet is generated and sent to this destination you can retrieve it via the Windows Explorer, if you are mapped to the folder.

If you do not enter a destination folder, you must enter an email address. If no destination folder is entered, a temporary one is created that is automatically deleted when the email is sent.

Enter the email addresses of the person or people you want to receive the report. To access more lines, press the Page Down key.

Decor 24 - F13 Function Key (CMS Options)

The F13=CMS Options function key, on the global/user setting screens, allows you to request E-mail price catalog data in a comma separated variable (CSV) file format.

In order to user the F13 feature, you must be licensed for both CMS and Decor 24.

When F13 is pressed, the following screen appears.

CMS Trading Partner ID - Enter the CMS Trading Partner Id for the dealer/user you want to activate item catalog privileges for. This must be the same ID established within the CMS application.

Allow CSV Price Catalog Submission - Enter a Y in the field Allow CSV Price Catalog Submission to grant access to price catalogs. If a partner ID is provided and the Allow CSV Price Catalog Submission field is set to Y, then Decor 24 allows users to request CSV (via E-mail) formatted price catalogs.

  • Use the A option to always invoke the Stock Check web service for a supplier who has been set-up to use web services.
  • This setting overrides the Enable insufficient inventory message setting on screen 4 of the global/user settings. What this means is that if the Enable insufficient inventory message was set to N and the Enable B2B Web Service StockCheck for enabled suppliers is set to A the stock check web service will be executed regardless of the insufficient inventory message setting.
  • Suppliers are enabled for web services via the F11=B2B Config function on the Green Screen Supplier File (menu option FIL 3).

SuperUser Settings

Through the X=SuperUser-Salesperson and Y=SuperUser-Multiple Accounts settings you can grant or restrict users access to certain accounts or salesperson numbers.

    The default settings are controlled on screen one of the user settings.
