What Does This Procedure Do?
Here you can make printouts of stock orders. The form types that can be printed are stock orders and delivery notes. You create stock orders in the Register Stock Order procedure. When you are registering orders, you can also preview and print the orders. You can print it on a preprinted form or on a blank paper. You can print a stock order document at any time. You will also find a printout sample of a stock order .
In the Form Settings procedure in the Global Settings module, you have the opportunity to decide how you want printouts to be handled.
Managing Windows
The Search Form in this procedure consists of two portions. In the left part, if you have marked the Show stock order outgoing option, you select the printout by order number, to warehouse, shipper's reference and delivery period. If you have checked the Show stock order incoming option at the bottom of the window, you can select by order number, from warehouse, receiver's reference and planned arrival period. If you leave these fields empty, the system will print all orders. Here you also select which type of form you want to print, printout date and number of copies.
In the right portion of the window, you can deselect (uncheck) individual orders that you do not want to print, or select individual orders to be printed, depending on which method you choose. When the right portion of the window is activated, you can also click on Preview to preview the printout.
Stock order status
An order always has a particular "status", depending at what stage the order is in the system. All the status levels (except for status 3) are set by the system. The following status levels exist:
The status of an order determines if and how it can be printed here. The Search Form provides you with the options of printing a stock order or a delivery note. You can also choose Fax, which will print a special fax form that will be sent with a fax program.
If you choose to print several stock orders and delivery notes selected by order number, then only orders with Status 1 will be printed.
There is an exception when selecting by Order number and that is if you only enter one order number in the fields. That will allow you to print the forms for orders with status 1-5.
