Menu codes are the lines pushed from VSB and are used to group the parts and labour together so it can be invoiced back as a combined total to the VSB spec line
If you look at the spec line in VSB, it will state the POS company, WIP number and Line Number.
The Line Number is the “Menu Code” seen in POS – all labour lines and part lines require the same menu code # to match the line # i.e. 01 or 03 as per example below. Using sort from the toolbar, menu codes will be grouped to ensure all parts, menu codes etc added prior to invoicing
If you change or remove the menu code on the WIP it will no longer match to the spec line in VSB and it will therefore not know which line to allocate the invoiced cost against in VSB. This will therefore prevent you from being able to invoice the WIP.
