Do not display this message again?

[Clive.Aspen]

When I'm downloading orders and actinic is updating the online stock,
I'm forever having to click 'ok' to the various messages;

one product has moved to below the warning level

one product has been suspended

etc etc

These messages appear through out the order download, and need to be clicked 'ok' for the download to continue. This is pretty annoying.. meaning I have to sit through the whole download (which can take a good few minutes) clicking 'ok' for every other order.

It wouldnt be so bad I suppose, if the message actually told you which item had been issued a stock warning or was suspended... but it doesnt.. there is no useful info in the message at all.. and what is more annoying is that I cant tick a 'dont show this message again' there doesnt seem to be that option.

Is there a way to stop these messages from stopping download every few seconds.. Or must I sit there throughout the download clicking 'ok' every couple of seconds...

Maybe I could train a monkey to do this.. but I've run out of bananas.

You can manage most of the messages under Housekeeping | Warning Management.
You can also run an order download using the command line options (eg "C:\Program Files\Actinic v10\Catalog.exe" /d /u) - see the main Actinic program help for Command Line.

but not the warnings that appear during download.

Did you downloading from the command line?

[Clive.Aspen]

not yet, but even if that works its not really a viable solution.
I have people working for me who are not computer experts and I wouldnt want them doing anything from the command line !
thanks anyway.

Based on what Duncan said above you could make a little batch command? Your order processing guys then would only have to double click the shortcut to run the command and would never see any command line interface.

Been a while but something like this might do:

@echo off
START C:\Program Files\Actinic v10\Catalog.exe /d /u

Then save that as 'downloads.bat' where you want the shortcut to appear.

I think that Mole-End's OSOP or OSA will also download without interruption.

Which Actinic version are you using? If you have version 10 and you use the stock auto sync, it will download orders automatically on a regular basis (you can adjust how frequently) and you won't get all the messages; just a summary in the status bar showing how many orders were downloaded.
