Cost Centers (User Defined Fields) Cost Centers are used to apply specific customer request information at the time of item issue. Ex: Lets say that your customer wants to know why a product is being dispensed. They usually have specific needs such as: the product will be used on LINE #2 or Vehicle #6 or Project “C” or GL Account or Shift “3” Etc. These specific values can be entered by the employee at the time of product issue.

Advantage and Gauge Calibration Gauge Calibration Schedules must be setup in CribMaster Client. An employee using CribMaster Client will determine by list (check mark) when and what Gauges to send to Calibration. This list would have to be sent to the on-site distributor to remove from the vending machine. Items are calibrated and returned to the vending machine however, someone using CribMaster Client would have to change the item status from in Calibration to Active. Gauges must be serialized. All of these tasks have to be processed on an on-going basis by the distributor.
Best Practices KIS (Keep it Simple – when you can) Suggest that you treat all items as EACHES. (At least to start with) Suggest that you do populate “COST” and “ISSUE PRICE” with the same values. “COST” is the distributor Cost. “Cost” could be unknowingly published on a report. Issue Price and Cost are not the same field. Suggest that you define SITE-ID as customer abbreviation. Suggest that you name CRIBS with Customer and Location. Suggest that you add a prefix to all Employee IDs.
