I put it under Sporadic, because it's not a generally recognized issue, but it happens to us every single time.
We have On-the-Fly Item Number creation turned off. Used to work fine - you try to enter an Item Number and first you'd get a "Not found, do you want to create?" If you said Yes, then you'd get a "That ability has been turned off" message.
For the last couple/few years that no longer works and I'm wondering if there's anyone else with the same issue so that maybe we can figure out what we have in common so they can find and fix it.
If I enter an invalid Item Number and press Enter, it goes to the Description Field - no warning of any sort.
If I then back up (Shift+Tab) one space, it goes back two, to the Line Number field, and clears the line.
However, there is now a Line there with the bogus Item Number there, and nothing else.
One distinction I
thought I noticed this morning, and this is that it appeared the problem occurs only happens if you do exactly as I describe above.
This morning, I found that when I Enter/Tabbed PAST the Description to Ship Qty, and then Shift-Tabbed back up, it didn't enter the bogus Item Number. I did this twice to make sure, and it worked both times. However, when I later tried going further, to see if it continued at each field, or let me enter all the way through, I couldn't. As soon as I got
to the Ship Qty field it Entered the line with the Bogus Item Number in there. However, this morning Evo had been veeeery slow on my computer, so maybe I was backing up before it realized I had entered anything. So, whether
this (going to Ship Qty before backing up) is a consistent issue or not is hard to tell at the moment.
