The increased number of details is available automatically
on update to Release 6.8, however, when using a large number of details you may
wish to review the settings for locking stock records when updating
Sales/Purchase Order Headers.
By default when updating order headers the system
exclusively locks the stock records in use on the order so that changes in
credit and reserved status can be reflected in the linked stock items. With an increased number of details the lock
and unlock of the stock records can take a noticeable amount of time. An existing parameter within the Optional
Features allows for the system to only lock the stock records after the
Order Header update and only locks if the operator changes the credit/reserved
flags.
To update this setting select Installation from the main menu followed by Application Manager and Application
User Facilities. Select the required
application followed by Enter/Amend
Orders and then Advanced Input
Facilities and Optional Features. Screen 2 of the Optional Features allows this
parameter.
Lock Stock AFTER Input
When Amend Header – set to place record locks, if necessary, when save
changes to Order Header. Note if the
operator changes the credit/reserved flags and a stock record cannot be locked
then any changes to the order header will be rejected and the operator warned
accordingly.
