Shipping Processing Orders
Use this form to process multiple orders automatically in a best-case scenario situation. Best-case scenario assumes the following:
- Current stocks are sufficient to ship all orders and line items in a batch with the Process field selected.
- Items not on hand will have their Process field cleared.
- No condition exists on any order in the batch that would require you to make a decision if you were using the regular order shipping and invoicing functions.
If a condition exists, the system skips that item when processing the batch. You must go back and ship that item manually.
If either the Customer Order Credit Hold field or the Customer Credit Hold field is selected, the system does not let you ship customer orders.
Orders or lines will not be batch processed if a letter of credit is required and the order does not have one, or if the shipping date is past the LCR's expiration date, or if the accumulated value of the order being shipped added to the accumulated shipped value exceeds the letter of credit amount.
If the customer does not require a letter of credit but a letter of credit does exist for this order, you will receive warning messages under the same circumstances as above, but shipping will continue.
This form displays a batch of orders which can come from one of two sources. First, if you enter a Batch ID when you run the Available to Ship report, the system will create a batch of all the orders ready to be processed. Second, you can create a batch manually on this form by selecting .
If you highlight a different form line (CO), the system automatically updates the Detail fields pertaining to that form line.
