Two imports bring HikVision data into BOS Enterprise:
Import Products creates or updates HikVision items from the HikVision master database.
Import Serial Numbers reads the serial numbers on a HikVision commercial invoice (CI) and creates the Purchase Order and Goods Received with the serial numbers.
Both are on the HikVision Menu (button) and need the HikVision settings (see HikVision Reference).
Navigation Example
Main Menu > HikVision > Menu (button) > Import Products or Import Serial Numbers
Enter the product models or product IDs in the box on the left. Select all Products to Update fills in all the HikVision products you already have.
Click Import.
When it is done, the message "Import/Update Complete." appears. The grid lists the batch, and Items not found lists the entries that are not on the master database.
Optionally, click Email to send the list of items not found to the HikVision email address.
Creates the Purchase Order for the invoice (or uses the one in PONO) after you confirm ("Create a new Purchase Order for the selected Invoice?").
Then "Successfully imported to Purchase Order No. <n>" appears.
Import Goods Received linked to Purchase Order
Copies the Purchase Order to a Goods Received after you confirm ("Receive the items in the selected Invoice against Purchase Order No. <n>?").
Then "Successfully imported to Goods Received No. <n>" appears.
Import missing Products
Opens Import Products with the invoice's missing product IDs filled in. If none are missing, "All the Products on the selected Invoice have already been imported." appears.
Open Purchase Order / Open Goods Received
Opens the linked transaction.
How the Purchase Order and Goods Received Are Built#
The Purchase Order is for the HikVision supplier, with one line per product and the serial numbers on each line.
Each line has a quantity of 1: check the quantities before you complete the order.
Running an action again replaces the lines on the existing Purchase Order or Goods Received.
Every product on the invoice must be imported first: otherwise "One or more products on the selected Invoice are missing." appears.
The Goods Received needs the Purchase Order first: otherwise "The selected Invoice has not been imported to a Purchase Order yet." appears.
The Transaction Types must be set in the HikVision settings: otherwise "Transaction Type - Purchase Orders has not been set. See Menu > Settings." (or the Goods Received message) appears.
