NOTE: Browser toolbar (and back button) no longer hidden because of this enhancement. Using the browser back button will navigate out of MC v7.0
NOTE: Many changes and enhancements have been made throughout the Inventory, Work Order, and Purchasing modules to support this enhancement.
NOTE: Important to ensure that field level security settings are logically coordinated with Forms Manager and Complete / Close settings for required fields. Users should be given proper access to any required field so they do not get “stuck” trying to fulfill requirements that they do not have permission to fulfill.
NOTE: Feature is also very valuable to customers that do not have shifts in the labor force, as it provides a beneficial method to globally apply a schedule and schedule exceptions to labor records.
