Phoenix Version 2 Upgrade
New Feature
Rental Insurance – A new feature has been added to Phoenix to make collecting rental
tape insurance quick and easy on every transaction. This new feature can be configured
to automatically add the tape insurance on each rental or the clerk can be prompted
at the end of each transaction for the tape insurance. In either case, your clerks
will not have to remember to ask the customer if they want the tape insurance; it
is automatically put on the invoice or the system prompts the clerk each time (when
rentals are present on the transaction).
The tape insurance activity/revenue is tracked through the merchandise section of
Phoenix. During the setup you create a new merchandise item and create a new department
called “Tape Insurance”. In the configuration, you point to this new merchandise
item and select to either prompt or automatically assign the tape insurance. You
will be able to track the number and revenue of your tape insurance sales by day,
week, month, and year. The tape insurance figures will show up on your end of day
report under the merchandise department summaries.
Modifications
The three main search screens (rental product, customer, and merchandise) have been
modified to accept scanned barcodes with the leading character indicators (/ . $
% -). The system now strips these characters from the field before the search is
performed. Many of the older barcodes had leading characters to identify which database
the code belonged to. You will now be able to scan these older barcodes at the search
screens without any difficulties.
Customer Report Generator – When choosing the “Notes” field on a custom report,
the report would produce blanks in this field. This version obtains the correct
information and displays it on the report
