Keyboard Shortcuts

Use the Ctrl + 1 key combination to bring up the “Quick Add” form. After this form opens, press the key which corresponds to the underlined letter of the item you are wishing to create. For instance, to create an new order, press the “O” key.

Highlighting text such as an order number and pressing Ctrl + G, will trigger a search for that item and any related items. Pressing Ctrl + G while no text is highlighted will simply open the search form.

Pressing ALT + [ will open the Scan to Complete production feature.
