Description

In a data entry field where you must specify the name or ID of a city, company, driver, tractor, trailer, or carrier, you can use TMWSuite’s instant best match feature to reduce typing time and errors.

You can click the down arrow on the right to display a drop-down list. It shows the names/IDs alphabetically following the one in the field.

This setting allows you to specify the maximum number of rows, i.e., selections, to display in a drop-down list.

[Misc]GlobalLogon

Applies to

Options

Store the current user ID and password and apply it for each TMW application accessed by the user today or until he/she selects the Exit and Sign Off command from the File menu to close an application.

Notes:
1. This option requires entry of an ID and password only once a day. Entry is needed the first time the user accesses a TMW application. When subsequent access to an application is needed, the system bypasses the logon screen and immediately opens the application. The user may re-access the same application, or access different applications, during the same day without having to log on each time.
2. CRM Right does not have an Exit and Sign Off command.
  - If users have accessed the application from within TMW Operations, they must use the File > Exit and Sign Off command in TMW Operations.
  - When used as a standalone product, CRM Right does not allow users to exit and sign off. Once a user accesses CRM Right, the system will bypass the logon screen until the stored user ID and password expire at the end of the day.
