When there is more than one, we use the scrap code for "other" then write
in the comments all the scrap reasons. All our scrap reports print the
operator comments in order to show this data. Stupid, I know, but it's the
only way we've figured out (that our operators are willing to do) so far.
This has always been a flaw IMHO. I've used Vantage for the past 10
years--two different companies--and attended several user group meetings in
the Twin Cities area, and this is a common issue at both of the companies
I've worked for and pretty much every company in the user group. And unless
I'm missing something, without custom programming, I only see two
options--punch in and out to record the data, or do it in the comments like
we do. Neither are good choices.
