Convert functions to menus dialog

It's possible that you might have functions in your database that you wish to use as menus. A function is essentially a menu with client and cover quantity details. The convert functions to menus dialog allows you to convert already created functions into menus, whilst still keeping a copy of the original function.

To launch the convert functions to menus dialog use one of the following methods.

 

Select Tools->Merge/Bulk Delete->Convert functions to menus from the menu bar        or

Click on the button_toolconvertfunctiontomenu toolbar button.

 

The program will ask you if you wish to perform a database snapshot just in case an error should occur in the conversion process. Resort Software recommends that you perform a database snapshot before any major changes are made to your database. Select yes or no and the convert functions to menus dialog will be displayed. See the following image.
