Application User Facilities

To enable the ‘Change Status Logging’ these new items need to be referenced within the Application User Facilities. A new parameter screen within the ‘Enter and Amend Orders / Advanced Input Facilities’ sub menu allows the Change Status Logging options.

Selecting the ‘Change Status Logging’ parameter screen allows you to reference the newly created data items so that, on change of status, the selected details are recorded.Note that you can leave the detail references blank so that details are only written to the order header.
