The Titan Manual

This document contains, or links to, all Titan documentation. The first section is a review of the many features and functions of Titan. Even if you have been on Titan for years, there may be new features, or features you didn’t need before, you could use now. The second section lists each of the Titan modules, and the programs in them, in the order they appear on menus. Program headings include a brief description of its purpose. A number of Titan documentation articles are linked to the headings. Following this, the third section lists links to all documentation articles in alphabetical order. Not all of these articles are linked in the second section, as their subject may be more general in nature. So you will want to scan this section for articles as well.  The fourth section links to Titan demonstration/training videos. The final fifth section is a series of Frequently Asked Questions and brief answers from Titan support.

How do I get these old receipts off of the list of receipts to choose from?

How do I create a refund check to a customer?

 

What needs to be done at the end of the day? The month? The fiscal year?

                There are no specific actions that need to be done at the end of the day. Most companies run the invoice End of Day routine at least once daily but it can be run at any time. All users should be admonished to log out of Titan at the end of the day. NOTE: If you do not log out, the processing date at the top of modules left open will not be updated and new transactions entered the next day will be dated to the previous day. The month end may end on different dates for different modules. Change the fiscal period for each module (GL, AR/OE, IP, AP) as needed. Remember that in most programs you can change the fiscal period for a specific transaction or batch as well. Customer statements and Financial Reports are usually run at month end but can be run at any time later by selecting the previous fiscal period or back dating. Year end can be run at any time in the following fiscal year. Refer to year end documentation. 

 

How do I find out who last accessed/edited this record?

                                The most recent customer record update user is displayed on the Edit Customer>Edit>Misc tab. The most recent Item record update (edit) user is displayed on the Edit Item>Edit tab. Users with access to the SQL Tools or Report Writer can list the user that created a record and the date and time of creation, and the user, date, and time of the most recent edit. The Titan database does have the ability to log all changes to specified files but this must be setup by BCR support and is recommended only for limited special needs or circumstances due to the added performance overhead. 

 

What fields are required when creating a new customer/vendor/item?

                New customer and vendor records require just an ID and company name. New item records only require an ID. A number of fields may be filled automatically by record defaults setup in System Defaults and the item class. Your company may require specific information in other fields. Some companies choose to create template records that already have the settings preferred and use the Copy button to create a new record rather than starting from scratch.

 

I have multiple vendors for the same product.  How can I set this up?

                You will need to make sure the Multiple Vendors Per Item option is checked on the System Defaults>IP>Item Master tab. In Edit Item select the Vendors tab for the item and add vendor in the grid at the top of the screen. Use the Vendor dropdown on the Edit tab to select the primary vendor.

 

How do I change an item number to a new number?

                On the Administration>System menu go to the Change/Merge Item # sub-menu. You can change one item or create a batch of items to change. This process will change the item number throughout Titan, so all transactions referencing that item will now reference the new number. There is an option to copy the old number to the Auxiliary Item so that you can still locate the item by that number if you wish.

 

How do I combine two customers into one?

                On the Administration>System menu go to the Change/Merge Customer ID. This will change the ID of the customer being merged in all transactions to the ID of the “new” customer merged to. The new customer can be a completely new ID or an existing customer. If the customer is new then all settings for the existing customer will be copied and the old customer deleted. If it is an existing customer then only transaction references are copied.

 

I need to modify item pricing.  How can I do this for many items at once?

                Titan has a variety of tools to help change the pricing and/or costing of multiple items. If you have new prices or costs on an Excel spreadsheet then the Import (Excel) program might be used. Depending on the specific nature of the change, the Inventory Price Changes, Inventory Quick Price Edit, or Inventory Cost Update could be the best tool to do this. If you are using Price Categories or Matrix Pricing then those tools may make the changes needed to customer pricing.

 

Where can I go to look at customer/vendor/item history?

                There are numerous standard reports in Titan that will give you various information about the transaction history of these records. And an infinite variety of custom reports can be created to display history in any other form you might require. Additionally a number of sub-tab screens in order entry, purchasing, edit customer, and edit item have displays of history. 

 

My vendor’s invoice includes freight/additional cost.  How do I handle this?

                The AP Distribution Wizard was designed specifically for this purpose. See documentation.

 

How can I see my total sales/cost for a given period of time?

                There are a number of sources for this information in Titan. The Management Information program (Administration>Reports) can give you performance information for a variety of metrics including sales and cost of goods over any time period and in comparison to another period. You can run and Income Statement (General Ledger>Reports) at any time for any date range. There are a number of reports on the Order Entry>Reports that will produce performance information in a variety of forms. And you can create a custom performance using the Report Writer.

 

How can I create new periods for the upcoming fiscal year?

                On the Administration>File menu go to Edit Fiscal Periods. Enter the year in the box on the left and hit return. This will automatically create the periods for that year.

 

How do I set an item/customer/vendor to be inactive/discontinued?

                Items can be flagged as discontinued on the Edit Item>Edit>Status/Other tab by setting the Item Status to Discontinued, which will meant that the item cannot be purchased, but remaining stock can be sold. Setting the Item Status to Inactive will prevent it from being either purchased or sold. Customers can be made inactive by un-checking the Active option on the Edit Customer>Edit tab. This will prevent new orders being entered for the customer. 

 

How do I set an item to be non-stock?

                To make an item non-stock uncheck the Stocked Item? option on the Edit Item>Ordering tab. This will display addition Non-Stock Type options: Nontangible/Service,  Tangible, and Absolute Misc. The non-stock tangible setting will allow you to filter those items out of suggested buying routines.

 

How do I process a credit/debit for a customer/vendor?

                If the credit, or debit, does not involve the addition or reduction of inventory items, and is purely financial, then you can use the Payments/Adjustments>Enter Credit/Debit Memos program in the Accounts Receivable module to adjust a customer’s account, or the Check/Memos>Enter Debit/Credit Memos program in the Accounts Payable module to adjust a vendor account. If a credit to a customer is due to returned goods then you will want to use either a sales order/invoice with negative quantities, or a Credit Memo with positive quantities. Either can be created from the Order Entry module. If goods are being returned to a vendor then you can create a Vendor Return in the Inventory/Purchasing module. When posted the Vendor Return will immediately reduce inventory and create an AP credit that can be taken when you do Check Preparation.           

 

How do I cut a check to a customer for a credit balance?

                If the customer wants a cash refund for an outstanding credit balance you will need to create an AR debit memo (AR>Payments/Adjustments>Enter Credit/Debit Memos)to offset the credit on their account. This will debit your AR account. The credit should be to any adjustment account you choose. Then cut a check using AP>Check/Memos>Instant Check. This will credit you cash account. The debit should be to the same adjustment account so that the net is zero.

 

I need to find out who my top 10/100/1000 customers by purchases were this year. How do I see that?

                In the upper right corner of the Report Writer is a Select Top field. Create a report from the CUSTHIST file that selects records with the YEAR equal to this year and links to the CUST table so that you can include other information such as COMPANY and SALESMAN. Sort the report by the TOTAMT field from 9 to 1 (high to low) and enter the number of customers you wish listed in the Select Top field.

On the different document type tabs highlight the document in question and corresponding invoice, payment, etc. details will be displayed in the grid at the bottom of the screen.

How do I get this old invoice that’s been paid already off of a statement?

                Normally invoices do not list on a statement if they have been paid off completely in the previous month (e.g., an invoice paid off in June should not appear on the July statement.) Occasionally an invoice may have a fractional penny balance in the record that is not displayed. If this happens contact BCR support to have the balance cleared in the data. 

 

How do I find out what was in a GL batch?

                In Show Account Activity on the GL>General menu, enter the batch number as the Starting and Ending Batch Number in the fields provided then click the Update Display button. Be sure to enter some filter before hitting Display Update or ALL GL entries will be displayed and this could take a long time for your system to process.

 

How do I find out who created this item?

                Users with access to the SQL Tools or Report Writer can list the user (ADDUSR) that created records and the date (ADDDATE) and time (ADDTIME) of creation in the ITEM table.

 

In AP invoice entry, how do I get these old receipts off of the list of receipts to choose from?

How do I create a refund check to a customer?

                If you have a customer that has a credit balance in AR and you need to write them a refund check, you will need to do two things. Create a debit memo for the customer equal to the amount of the refund. This will zero their account balance and debit the AR GL account. The credit account can be any adjustments account. Then you can create a check using the Instant Check program. This will credit the GL cash account. The debit should be to the same adjustments account you used for the debit memo, leaving a net adjustment of zero.
