Creating a supplier
Before executing a measurement, supplier´s data from various
suppliers can be entered. The supplier´s data is saved together with the
measuring data and can also be found at the printout. The supplier´s
data can be modified or deleted at any time.
The first line is empty. This line can be used when you don´t want to
indicate a supplier´s name.
You also have the possibility to read in your samples with a barcode
scanner. The barcode data is also saved and can be found at the
printout too.
All these fields have to be chosen before starting a measurement.
