How Print Status Drives Document Printing

The print status of an order generation determines when and how documents, such as invoices or order acknowledgements, are printed. Administrators can set defaults for different types of documents using the Order Status Print Status Defaults control maintenance record. Some statuses are unavailable for particular types of printing.

Note: Use the Remove Orders from the OOSRQ When Prt Status Changed To control maintenance have the system remove orders from the Open Order Status Review Queue when the print status has changed to a specific print status.
