Monthly Procedure


The Monthly Process is contained throughout this help system, but here I will put it into a step-by-step process and send you the pertinent help pages.

Monthly Process (do once per month).


  1. When the new Previews Catalog is received, download the file with Previews on Windows. If the file is not available, call Cheryl Sleboda at Diamond and complain. You cannot proceed to step two until this step is complete. See New Previews File Program for more detail.
  2. Inform CBPF to find customers' auto-pulls for the new Previews Catalog. See Order Monthly Items Program (left column of buttons only, under 'Find Monthly Auto Pulls') for more detail.
  3. When nearing the order deadline (online orders due date) from Diamond, then export the CBPF data to Previews on Windows. See Export to POW Detail for more detail.
  4. When the order has been completed with Previews on Windows then Import the final numbers into CBPF from POW. See Order Monthly Items Program (Import Button Only) for more detail.

Weekly Process (Do once each week)

  1. When you receive the weekly e-mail from Diamond, proceed with processing in preparation for your weekly Diamond shipment. See Weekly Pull File Program for more detail.
