RE: attaching the userid to inventory batches

["Shaw, David" <dshaw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

This is one of those really annoying holes in MAPICS that people have been
asking to be filled since IMHIST was added in MAPICS II.  When we bought /db
Mod 0 back in 1990 we asked MAPICS for this, and it's still not there after
all these years.  If you use the PM&C interface to process your
transactions, you can get there since it logs the employee number ("badge
number") of the person who performed the transaction.  Since we had to have
this information for FDA compliance, we ended up modifying MAPICS so that we
would have this information for all inventory transactions, not just those
from PM&C.  It was a bear to maintain (no doubt still is - I left that
company last year), but it was absolutely necessary for us.  If you can use
PM&C, I'd highly recommend going that route.
