SOE Print Parameters Control Maintenance Records

The following control maintenance records belong to the SOE (Sales Order Entry) category and apply to print parameters.

Enable MSDS Print With Invoice

Indicate whether the system prints material safety data sheets (MSDS) along with the invoices that have product that require one. ClosedMore:

Options

  • Yes - Prints invoices that do not require an MSDS, followed by the invoices that do require an MSDS. As the invoices that require an MSDS print, the system prints the corresponding MSDS on a different printer.

  • No - Does not print MSDS sheets or an MSDS Order Summary page. Does not sort invoices according to their need for MSDS sheets before printing.

Outcome of setting this control record

If set to yes, following the invoices that require an MSDS, the system prints an MSDS Order Summary page. This page lists all of the products on the invoice that require an MSDS and the MSDS that each requires. The MSDS Order Summary might contain multiple pages. The system also prints the MSDS number on the invoice as a line item comment associated with the product that requires it.

If a product on an invoice requires an MSDS but one is not printed for it, the system sends a tracker to the user or message group specified in the User To Get Tracker When MSDS Is Not Printed For Productcontrol maintenance record. The tracker contains the invoice number, customer number, product number, and MSDS number.

Default Value(s)

No

Dependencies

If set to Yes, User To Get Tracker When MSDS Is Not Printed For Productcontrol maintenance record for the system to notify a user about a missing data sheet.

Options

  • Yes - Sends invoices to the Invoice Preview Queue.

  • No - Does not send invoices to the Invoice Preview Queue.

Outcome of setting this control record

If set to Yes, orders with a print status of Q go to the Invoice Preview Queue, even if the customer is set to receive zero print copies of their invoices.

Default Value(s)

No

Action if set to Null

Same as if set to No.

Order Status Print Status Defaults

For each transaction type and order status, select a default print status code. ClosedMore:

Options

Orders can have the following status codes:

  • Y-Yes Print - Prints a copy of the appropriate document.

  • N-No Print - No document prints.

  • F-Fax - Faxes a copy of the appropriate document to a customer.

  • A-E-mail - E-mails a copy of the appropriate document to a customer.

  • H-Hold for Printing - Use to hold a printing

Invoices can have the following additional status codes:

  • P-Detailed Invoice Preview Report - Causes the invoice is to be selected for and included in the Detailed Invoice Preview Report. This is a typical print status setting for an invoice.

  • Q-Invoice Preview Queue - Causes the invoice to be selected by the Invoice Preview Queue, if that program is used before the Detailed Invoice Preview Report.

  • At the Invoice Preview Queue, the print status of the invoice can be changed to P to include the invoice in the Detailed Invoice Preview Report.

  • B-Batch Print - Makes the invoice available to the Print Invoices program.

  • M-Flag to be Placed on Manifest - Flags the order so it can be placed on a shipping manifest.

    After the system places the invoice on a manifest, the print status remains an M until the shipping manifest is closed. Once the shipping manifest is closed, the system looks at the Print Status Override On Manifest Closecontrol maintenance record for the associated branch to see if the print status should then be overridden. If no override is specified, when the shipping manifest is closed, the print status is reset to the default print status that was assigned to the invoice transaction type in this (Order Status Print Status Defaults) control maintenance record.

  • H-Hold-No Batch Print - Puts a hold on printing the invoice as part of a batch through the Print Invoices program.

Outcome of setting this control record

Determines the print status for each transaction type, such as Received P/O and each order status, such as Call When Complete.

Default Value(s)

N-No Print

Action if set to Null

Same as if set to N.

Complete this record if your company uses Outbound E-mail and you are not using Eclipse Forms.

Indicate whether to print all generations of an open order on the first print of acknowledgment. ClosedMore:

Options

  • Yes - Prints all generations the first time the system prints the order acknowledgement.

Same as if set to No.

Additional Information

If you are using Eclipse Forms, use the all generation document to print all the open generations of an order on the acknowledgement.

Print Phantom Waits For In-Process Receipts

For each RF branch, indicate whether the system waits for in-process items to be put away before printing an order generation. Set this record for only RF branches. ClosedMore:

Options

  • Yes - The system waits to print an order generation.

  • No - The system does not wait and prints the order generation with in-process items. Non-RF branches should always be set to No.

Outcome of setting this control record

If an order is not processed because this record is set to Yes, the system assigns the open order status Waiting-IP to the order in the Open Order Status Review Queue. The user can ignore the in-process quantity and manually select and process orders in the Open Order Status Review Queue with a status of Waiting-IP, which means the system prints the generation with what is available.

Default Value(s)

No

Action if set to Null

Same as if set to No.

Additional Information

None
