  • You can save stores as favorites in the Application Navigator.
  • Setting this up is simple.

Are you constantly flipping between different stores and applications throughout your day?

We talked about how color coding your screens can help, but you can also save stores as favorites in the Application Navigator in both ERA-IGNITE and POWER. Setting this up is simple, and you will be able to get to your most-used stores with a single click.

For ERA-IGNITE:

Select “System Tools” from the top toolbar. Choose “Preferences,” and “Preferences” again.

In the Preferences box, select the “Quick Change” tab.

You will then be able to select up to three stores and branches to be stored as Quick Change buttons. In our example, we’ve selected the Accounting branch for three different stores.
