    • The INTREPs 'WorkFact' Scenario:

    The Dual Operational Nature Of INTREPs 'WorkFact'
    1.
    The incumbent flexible suppliers catalogues facsimile provides for easy and rapid pick-post operations during the creation of quotations, without interfering with existing materials stock. Materials stock is similarly ordered and delivered, with listings that ease 'Required' – 'In-Stock' reconciliation's.

    2.
    Where raw materials sub-components are locally manufactured, to be utilised for the production of whole locally produced products, or for the production of varying job types, Bills of Materials are constructed with the use of the 'Extras POP' facility, to be delivered in-house as Job Purchases.

    User Operations In General:

    'WorkFact-V2-LAN' is designed to function in MS Windows LAN – multi-user, multi-PC - environments, using MS Office 2003 or later versions. However, MS Office 2003 requires MS Windows operating systems later than MS Windows Millennium. INTREPs 'WorkFact' functions within MS Office 2007/2010 operated by MS Windows 7 and 10 versions without prominent difficlties. The best combinaton is however, MS Office 2003 operating within MS Windows XP Professional(or MS Windows Server 2003), shelled within VM's Virtual Player.

    Users that are 'keyboard' proficient – with keyboard preference – and in possession of ECDL modules 1 to 4 and 6 are particularly preferred. These people are best suited to make the most of 'WorkFact', in terms of time efficiency and in terms of maximising the potential of incumbent data.
