In a multi user environment where others could be adding jobs at the same time, it is a function of Jim2 to monitor the sequence of unique job numbers issued at all times. If a user creates a job from a quote, then wants to cancel that job, they may only do so by applying a status of Cancel to that job. Jim2 will time/date/initial stamp the cancellation, log the history of the cancellation, and lock the job from further edit. It will now only be available to view. |
