MLUL - MAILING UTILITIES
To open MLUL, press <Alt M> ("Menu") and follow the Menu path illustrated below, then press <Enter>, or simply enter <MLUL> in the "Enter Program Name" field and press <Enter>.
Each store has its own "Mailing List." From time to time you may wish to consolidate the lists into one list and replace each individual list with the consolidated one. See Multi-Store documentation for instructions for doing this.
Enter the "Old Area Code" and the "New Area Code." Then enter prefixes for this area code. (Up to ten prefixes.) Select "Continue" to change to the new area code.
This option moves current purchase totals and current transactions to last year’s purchase/transaction totals. Total purchases/transactions are not affected. You are given the option to exit without running the history roll.
Enter the "Oldest Tracking day to keep on File." This will permanently remove all tracking records prior to the date entered.
Select "Continue," and at the "Are you sure you want to delete?" message, select OK to delete.
A message window will display the number of records deleted.
Combine Tracking (Multi-Store Only)
This program allows you to combine the tracking information from one store to another. See Multi-Store documentation for instructions.
This option allows you to clear to zero any accumulated amounts toward qualifying for coupons.
Select "Continue," and the coupon amounts on all customers’ MLM accounts will be cleared.
This is a special utility that is used for odd circumstances surrounding the optional ODBC driver.
E-Mail Maintenance
This option allows you to display and fix or delete invalid e-mail addresses (Ten at a time).
Note: BSMGR’s E-mail is an optional feature and is only available for Windows users at this time. Call the BSMGR sales department if you are interested in purchasing this feature.
If you change a category, it will affect your mailing list history. For example if you change Fiction from Category 58 to Category 200, the mailing list history for Fiction sales will remain with Category 58. This utility will move the history to the new Category 200, thereby assuring an accurate report when tracking your customers’ Fiction purchases.
This option allows you to combine the records of mail list customers. This can be useful in a case where there are two mail list records for the same person. They can be combined for sales history purposes
