CORRECTION for the Munce 2019 2Day Flyer, Christmas Flyer, and Christmas Catalog Files

CORRECTIONS for the Munce holiday catalog files.


NOTE: If you are not sending the Munce 2019 2Day Flyer, Christmas Flyer or Christmas Sale Event Catalog, you can ignore this message.


It was reported that at least one sale price was incorrect and two of the file names could not be used (due to length) in IVPROMO. If you are sending any of the flyers below, please re-download the MunceCatalog.zip file using the same link below and follow the remainder of the instructions, making note of the current file names (M-2DAY-RF.TXT is now M-2DAY-F.TXT and M-CMAS-RF.TXT is now M-CMAS-F.TXT).

The sale price changes are in M-NOV-RN.TXT, M-NOV-RD.TXT, M-NOV-RF.TXT, M-NOV-CN.TXT, M-NOV-CD.TXT, and M-NOV-CF.TXT. If you already processed one of these files, simply download the updated Zip and re-run IVPROMO on the same file. BSMGR will automatically apply the corrected, lower sale price during the dates that the sale is active.

The monthly update disc you receive from BSMGR for RMS contains a current copy of the Christian Books & More® database, new images, music samples, and program changes. Remember to run IVDC after installing your update to reflect retail prices changes for your store’s inventory items. When that program completes, you can use IVL to print labels with the new prices. For your convenience, the RMS program changes included with this update are listed below.


The price files for currently active Munce sales catalogs are included on this update.

If you are sending out one of these Munce catalogs to your customers, you can run “IVPROMO” in BSMGR and enter the appropriate file name.

Remember you can download the current Munce catalog price files by clicking the link below and extract the files into your BOOK folder. http://www.bookstoremanager.biz/content/MunceCatalog.zip

As a reminder, the program will check your inventory file for the following:

  • If you are missing products from the catalog, the program will prompt you to add them, pulling basic information (title, author, retail, etc.) from the Christian Books & More database.
  • Once missing products have been added to your inventory file, the program will set up the following for all the products in the catalog file:
    » Sale price; » Sale start date; » Sale end date; » Promo code.
