AS400
Did you know?
The IBM System i is an early generation of mid-range computer systems for IBM i users and was subsequently replaced by the IBM Power Systems in April 2008. The platform was first introduced as the AS/400 in June 1988 and later renamed to the eServer iSeries in 2000. As part of IBM's re-branding initiative in 2006, it was again renamed to System i. The code-name of the AS/400 project was "Silver Lake", named for the lake in downtown Rochester, Minnesota, where development of the system took place.

Ford 20 Individual Authorization
If the buyer has the franchise code in AS400 and still cannot enter a Ford Closed sale at an auction, try doing a FORD 20 command in AS400 for the auction to get a bidder number.
Go to AS400 at the specified auction, do a Ford 20 - hit F11 twice - 100# of rep and hit Enter - X next to dealer # and hit Enter - Enter again for bidder # or the AS400 will tell you what issue that is blocking the account.
Go back to Manheim.com and see if the user can enter sale, this fixes issues in AS400 for that auction and dealer entering Ford closed sale for future sales.

Proxy Bids AS400 FAQ's: Announcements, Remarks and Lights
Version 8 Created on Apr 29, 2015
Below are some of the frequently asked questions for the proxy bid cancellation rule changes and AS400 Announcements/Remarks/Lights field updates. Note: the answers below apply to the proxy bid cancellation rules after they are enhanced on May 29th 20'.
Question: Will Yellow/Caution light show up online on the Vehicle Detail Page?
Answer: No, but if a Yellow Light is turned on, a clarifying announcement should be made in the Announcement field in the AS400 which will show up on the Vehicle Detail Page.
Question: How will the new Red Light/Yellow Light (AS-IS, No Arbitration) affect the new proxy bid cancellation rules?
Answer: If the Yellow Light is turned on (after a Red Light was already on) to indicate 'AS-IS, No Arbitration', the locations should also be entering the corresponding announcement into the Announcement field which will cancel all proxy bids.
Question: If we have an AS-IS lane that we normally don’t enter an AS-IS announcement but turn on the Red Light on the block, will we have to change our process?
Answer: Yes, you should turn the Red Light on in the AS400 on all these units when they are set for sale to prevent Proxy Bids from canceling.
Question: Will notes be added when the block clerk changes the lights and remarks?
Answer: No. Currently, only Lights and Remarks changes made in the menus updated (RECON1-01, RECON1-04, REGIST-01, REGIST-12, REGIST-13, REGIST-15, PT1-01, PT1-07) will put an F5 note that the field was changed.
