Set Flag Value on Order Detail based on Document Action Qty

The Order Processing documents allow you to enter additional text into the line ‘description’ based on the document quantity confirmed – i.e. if you confirm the quantity as zero you could add text relating to the item being out of stock within the description block on the invoice. This new feature allows you to set a flag ‘value’ against the order detail relating to the response.

Installation

Document Design Manager

The facility to set the flag item and the value to update is available within the Document Design parameters. To update select Installation from the main menu followed by Application Manager and Document Design Manager (Compact and Professional users should select Installation then Document Design Manager).

Choose the Order Processing application and the document type required and the list of available documents are displayed, enter the number of the document you wish to update at the bottom of screen and the document will be displayed.

This new feature is available on parameter screen 11; select Parameters from the main toolbar and use the ACTION button to move through to screen 11 – Order Detail Items to be Confirmed.


Set Item Value – set to enable the flag options. When set a pop-up parameter screen is displayed that allows additional settings.


Set Detail Item – select the data item on the Sales/Purchase Order Detail database to update, only N/T/C item types are allowed. The values to be updated are set as:

§ When Diff Qty – enter the value to update into this item if the quantity is amended.

§ When Zero Qty – enter the value to update into this item if qty is zero

§ When Non-Zero Qty – enter the value to update into this item if quantity is not zero

 Note

 If ‘When Diff Qty’ is set then this overrides the other two settings if the action quantity is manually amended during document production.
