Size Codes
Set up the size ranges for the garments on your style master file. In the example, code “A” has 4 sizes while code “B” has 8 sizes. Each code defines a range of sizes. AIMS supports up to 24 sizes for each style.

Prepack Definitions
Each size code can have multiple prepack definitions.  Prepacks can save a lot of time by automatically spreading the quantities by size when entering customer orders.   For example, a style comes in sizes S-M-L-XL and is sold by the dozen packed 2-2-4-4.  If a customer buys 3 prepacks, the system automatically enters the quantities for each size as 6-6-12-12 for a total of 3 dozen.

Color Code Master File
This is a user defined table that allows you to enter a long descriptive name for each color code in your system as in the example below.

Many of the reports and all of the documents seen by customers (such as order confirmations, picking tickets, invoices, etc.) include the long description from the color code file so that it is always easy to identify the correct garment. The “NRF” color codes are also included in the system for compliance with the National Retail Federation standards.

Code File
This is a series of user defined tables defining items such as billing terms, ship via, debit and credit adjustments, and other information. A sample code file for billing items is shown below.

 

After you set up the code file, whenever the system requires the billing terms, such as on an invoice, you only have to type the letter “A” for Net 30, or “B” for Net 10, etc.  Don’t worry if you can’t remember the correct code.   If you leave it blank or make a mistake, the system will always popup a window with all the valid choices.  You never have to remember any codes.

Passwords
AIMS comes with a built in security system.  If you choose to use system security, each operator will have a password and security profile that enables or disables specific functions.  For example, an operator from the production department may be permitted to look at the customer order file, but may not be permitted to make changes.   Similarly, a customer service operator may be permitted to look at the cutting ticket file, but not be able to make changes.
