Key Board Shortcuts For Order Entry

Search All

To search all when in a list of customer, vendor, or item IDs; press the ‘F6’ key.
The search can also be accepted by pressing Enter, no need to click the ‘X.’

Quick Entry
During order entry, press the ‘F3’ key to bring up quick entry which can help to speed up order entry, especially with multi-page orders.

Quick Return
When entering items in an order where the item only needs a quantity ordered, press the ‘Page Down’ key to jump down to the next entry instead of tabbing through the whole line.

Use the ‘Page Up’ key to jump back up to the last Item ID.

‘Ctrl+Tab’ can also be used the same way as ‘Page Down’ and ‘Ctrl+Shift+Tab’ can be used instead of ‘Page Up’

Page Up and Page down
If there are bundles on an order the combination of ‘Ctrl+Page Up’ can be pressed to jump to the next bundle up.

Inversely, ‘Ctrl+Page Down’ will jump to the next bundle down.

Home and End
To get to the first item in an order press ‘Ctrl+Home.’

To get to the last item of the order, press ‘Ctrl+End.’

Edit Item Descriptions
When tabbing through an order detail line to edit a description, tab to the description field and press “F2” to place the cursor at the end of the text rather than having all the text selected.

Record Selector Deletion
To remove all or a large number of the records from an order, move the mouse to far left of the items on the order, hover the mouse over one of the boxes and hold down the left mouse button.

Move the mouse across the records to be deleted. The boxes for the items that are selected will turn black.

Then press the ‘Delete’ key and Paradigm will remove all of the items that have been selected.

Trim Draw Quick Access
Holding ‘Ctrl’ and clicking on the ‘Img’ button, bypasses the File List popup and opens the trim draw program, directly.
