Information Systems:Norwin's Christmas 2015 Page

This is a scribble page with notes for the time I will be away. It is to be archived/removed in the future. Feel free to edit this page and leave comments for when I return.

RF Guns

I don't expect any RF gun troubles - but there are 5-6 spares in the cage that are ready to go. I've never had to use these but I pre-configured them. Just load them up with a battery and wait a little bit as they will need to cold boot and pull settings from MobiControl. 3 guns have been sent in for repair, expected back in the new year.

Buying 10-15 more batteries in the new year, just to replace some more of the old ones

uniTV

uniTV is fairly stable these days too, but there is a new hotline logging protocol, which you can read about here: uniTV Hotline Instructions.

Stores (none of these are urgent matters)

Kerrisdale - I helped Colin set up colin@medicinecentre.com on his new iPhone, which works, but we didn't properly configure outbound/SMTP (so he can receive but not sure if he can send). He may call back for assistance on this, although I emailed him instructions I found on a site and left him with that. He's busy so he may not care about this for a while.

Kerrisdale - I'm working with Eugene to fix this thing for him on AssystPOS. Basically he can't do item receiving by invoice, only by internal PO. I confirmed with another store that you should be able to receive by invoice. Anyways, it's a Telus thing, and the extent of my efforts have just been confirming that it is supposed to work and that it's not us but if Eugene calls just let him know I'll be working on it next year.

Fraser MC - Aliya is the new shareholder I've been dealing with. She's quite frazzled at the moment (as anyone would be opening a new store) but I think she will be working through the holidays. She's the one who's worked at Blueridge. She knows Web Orders and is set up for that. She's getting Kroll, which I've set up, but she will need her credentials. I'll email this to you today. Also, she may ask for shelf labels for her initial store order. I can tackle this with Sheila when I get back.

Robin's Pharmacy - Need to fix Catapult shelf labels, they're misaligned. I want to cross this off by today.

Central (Dufferin?) - Richelle at CD Dufferin is the new pharmacy manager and wants to do something about email. She either wants to use the existing unipharm email, or forward that to her gmail. I also want to cross this off by the end of today. If not and she calls, basically she's looking for an email solution.

Christine's DocView and PDF exporting

DocView 9 now has a problem exporting documents as PDF. I got the Send as PDF function to work, which automatically opens up IBM Notes, creates a new message and attaches the exported document. However, the Print to PDF (Print --> select Adobe PDF as the printer) doesn't work. It crashes the program. This is totally a convenience thing, but I want to fix this eventually.

Cheryl's monitor risers

Doing the creative cloud desktop swaps will probably free up a riser. If you have some time please give one to Cheryl. She already has one there and is just waiting on another.

Belt printers in receiving sometimes stop working

This is a wireless thing. You may get a call that one or two mobile belt printers will stop working in receiving. Please read about the problem on this page Mobile_belt_printers, which I've created as penultimate page for Mobile belt printers but which currently only has one thing on it - how to fix this problem.
