For Gordon and Gotch, if you manually invoice magazines on the computer and later intend to send or print return forms from the computer please make sure that you enter title and issue.
I was talking to them today. They told me that they have warned people time and again that “no code = no credit”.
So now they cannot credit a newsagent on a DOS site for some magazines as a result. What they stated was the little key punch girls in China cannot ‘make up’ issue codes -- so if they are blank -- they punch blank -- thus an invalid issue, so no credit.
We are now preparing to send a newsletter to our clients to explain how to setup Gordon and Gotch so this cannot happen again.
