Aren't I supposed to be able to use this to change defaults while the system is still live? Because, I certainly cannot do that. It doesn't let me change things.

Message printed at the bottom of Sales Orders.

Those are in SO defaults, not in SD-Q. Only SD-Q (IS Tech Support Settings) can be changed on the fly.

The 8/4 update has a new Master Defaults program in Evo (load the ADMIN menu) that does NOT require all users to be out of the system to make those sorts of changes.  But I did just discover a problem with the Sales Order Ending Lines.

why do you have to modify your RTMs before updating? unless you are using Evo notes there shouldn't be any issues.
and you could turn Evo notes off until you get the RTMs updated if that were the case...
 
 

Turning off Evo notes does not stop you from using them.. just stops the system from printing them. you can still see them in ARA and APA

I am a bit confused after reading this thread.  There are default settings for each module in two places, for instance WO defaults are under WO, and also under SD.  
I looks to me like these are  basically the same.  Is this true?
 
Then there is the SD-Q Master defaults (which also seem to be the same as the other defaults) which I assume is what Lynn is talking about being able to change on the fly. Am I correct?
 
The first time I opened this, however, as I was looking through the WO settings the "You can't change this because there are users in the system" message  popped up and then the program basically crashed with a couple of messages (last of which was "too many POPS" ).  I had to CTRL/ALT/DEL to get out of it.
I have opened it since with no problems but  I am not sure I trust it not to have this issue again in the future.  
I have no idea what or where DEF-Q is.  

Maybe that was the problem I had at first also, it seems to be working now.  I didn't even look at the title bar to see the DEF-Q!  
Thanks, Colin.
