Set-Up Screen: Email, Product & Catalog Number Blanks

Top  Previous Topic  Next Topic

 

Email

Enter the royalty holder's email address in this blank.  Just to the right of the email address is a light blue button.  By clicking on the button, AnyBook will activate your email program and insert the address in the "TO" blank.  Like the phone button, you can change the function of the email button so that it copies to the clipboard.  The button's function is set in Basic Set-up.   More information on the AnyBook's email features can be found in the Help Menu accessed from the Main Invoice Screen.

Product, Catalog Number, Price

In the product blank, enter the name of the product from which the royalty holder will be receiving royalties.  The best way to enter the product's name is to click on the "L" button beside the Catalog Number blank.  This will bring up the Product Pop-up list and a list of products.  Pick the correct product and press Paste.  The product name, catalog number and retail price will be entered in the blanks automatically for you.  (Note that you can also activate the list of products by double clicking in Product Name or Catalog Number, selecting EDIT and PASTE FROM LIST from the Menu Bar or pressing CTRL+L on the keyboard.)

Category

You can also produce a royalty report for a product category instead of an individual product. To do so, the category feature needs to be turned on and the prefix of the category entered in the Catalog Number blank and the category name entered in the Product blank.  To turn on the feature, select TOOLS and ROYALTY BASED ON A CATEGORY from the Menu Bar. More Information

Abbreviated Product Name.

The abbreviated product name is used for listing purposes.  In this blank, type in a shortened or abbreviated version of the product name.  You have 20 characters of space to work with.  AnyBook will attempt to shorten the name when you paste a catalog number and product name from the Product Pop-up list, but you'll want to review and re-work it to your satisfaction.
