Stock Check Warnings by Status

Diamond and Premier Only

Within Sales Order Entry then the status of the order affects how options for stock check warnings are processed – mandatory stock warnings only applying to active orders with the warning as option for hold, forward and quote status orders. In addition, quotes allowed you to ignore stock checks but checks would apply for other status.

New options are available within the Application User Facilities for Sales Order Processing to control, per status, whether stock checks are mandatory or should be ignored.

Installation

Application User Facilities

New parameters have been added to the Optional Features for Sales Order Processing. From the main menu select Installation followed by Application Manager and then Application User Facilities. Select the Sales Order Processing application and then Enter/Amend Orders, Advanced Input Facilities and Optional Features.

The prompt ‘Warn if less than physical/free stock’ gives a pop-up with additional options and the new status control options are available here.

Against each order status you can select whether the stock check is mandatory – leaving blank applies a warning only or you can set to ignore the check completely. You can’t set both flags for any one status.
