InvFix 6.00Last edited: December 15, 2003 08:09 AM
Basic Inventory uses a dual data file system for its recipe information. These files can get out of sync with each other, causing the Recipe Detail Report to misreport the recipe table or error out. It can also cause recipe entries to disappear and reappear. InvFix reindexes the recipe files to correct the problem.
InvFix is designed for in-house and developer use. It requires an understanding of DOS and Basic Inventory file structure to verify proper operation and should not be given to an end-user.
Syntax
INVFIX {/DEBUG}
* /DEBUG – Primarily designed for in-house troubleshooting, this replaces normal video output with record information.
Technical Information
InvFix is run from the application directory and requires 600K of available base memory.
InvFix first backs up the PLU? ? ? ?.RCP files used by Basic Inventory to create the Recipe Detail report. It then reads all the ? ? ? ? ?.RCP files to get the initial recipe information. Note that these are the files actually used by Basic Inventory when computing inventory item usages. Finally, it writes new PLU? ? ? ?.RCP files.
If a ? ? ? ? ?.RCP file is corrupted, InvFix cannot repair it. The solution in this case is to delete the file and then run InvFix to generate new PLU? ? ? ?.RCP files. Due to memory limitations, InvFix can only handle inventories with up to 40 inventory items per menu item. It will error out and inform the operator if the inventory exceeds this limitation.
Every inventory item has a ? ? ? ? ?.RCP file containing a list of the menu items associated with it. Every menu item has a PLU? ? ? ?.RCP file containing a list of the inventory items associated with it. Both files contain the recipe amount. See the Basic Inventory Technical Document for more information on file structure.
