Customer / Supplier search by name

Here’s another hopefully helpful tip. I don’t know if it is documented in the manuals, but it is definitely a change from previous versions and I wasn’t aware of it until recently

When raising a Sales Order or Purchase Order you can use the visual assist to select the customer or supplier. Since XE(?) you can enter the first couple of letters of the address book name and press <Tab>. The system will now take you to the “Long Address Book Search and Select” and will have already located for you all those address book entries starting with those letters. This makes address book selection a lot easier and quicker.

Just a foot note on this. Standard JDE is shipped with the address book constant for “long address ID’ set to an asterisk. I suggest to change this to a different symbol. If you manually insert an asterisk in the fields where the long address functionality is enabled you could inadvertedly select the wrong customer!
