Improved Process for Oracle Retail Documentation Corrections To more quickly address critical corrections to Oracle Retail documentation content, Oracle Retail documentation may be republished whenever a critical correction is

needed. For critical corrections, the republication of an Oracle Retail document may at times not be attached to a numbered software release; instead, the Oracle Retail document will simply be replaced on the Oracle Technology Network Web site, or, in the case of Data Models, to the applicable My Oracle Support Documentation container where they reside.

This process will prevent delays in making critical corrections available to customers. For the customer, it means that before you begin installation, you must verify that you have the most recent version of the Oracle Retail documentation set. Oracle Retail documentation is available on the Oracle Technology Network at the following URL:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/documentation/oracle-retail-100266.html

An updated version of the applicable Oracle Retail document is indicated by Oracle part number, as well as print date (month and year). An updated version uses the same part number, with a higher-numbered suffix. For example, part number E123456-02 is an updated version of a document with part number E123456-01.

If a more recent version of a document is available, that version supersedes all previous versions.

Reports 7 - Labels 1

Reports 7 - Labels

Overview This document is designed to give a ‘flavour’ of the potentials when generating stock and display labels.

If the label style you desire is not listed please speak to your implementation consultant.

Labels can be modified and tweaked using Crystal® in house or as a chargeable service provided by Oracle®.

Note: When presented with a date and time range to ensure the report includes all the data it is recommended that the start time is set to 00:00:00. This ensures all transactions

logged on the chosen date are included.

Labels Generated from the Menu Please note this document details the most common type of stock label produced by FRS. There are other formats of label spanning small accessory labels to large A5 sized labels designed for easy scanning in a warehouse scenario. Please discuss your label requirement with your implementation consultant.

Labels are generated either via a menu option or from within a specific application. The size, style and content of the label are label specific however labels can be changed by yourself (If you have crystal knowledge), or by Oracle® (please note this may be a chargeable activity)
