Open Order Shipping/Billing Entry - Purpose
OP120E
The Open Order Shipping/Billing Entry program (OP120E) performs the entry portion of the open order shipping and billing process. Shipping transaction entry by individual sourcing company/warehouse or for all company/warehouses on the order is supported. Selection of which company/warehouses to ship and potentially bill is determined by the company/warehouse entered on the Function Select screen.
The program maintains workfiles that contain original order data as well as the changes and shipping information entered during the shipping process. At completion of the entry process, a transaction is written to the Shipping/Billing Transaction file (OP120BP). This transaction triggers the shipping and billing update process that is performed by the Shipping/ Billing Inventory Update program (OP125E).
The entry program performs the standard processing routines such as: pricing, costing, gross margin checking, tax processing, weight/volume calculations, credit checking, and inventory update calculations for the workfile.
If the Electronic Data Collection module is installed, the Open Order Shipping/ Billing program maintains transaction errors that occurred during the Electronic Data Collection processing. The transaction errors are maintained when the Open Order Shipping/ Billing program are called through the Electronic Data Collection Menu. The transaction errors are corrected or deleted during the maintenance process. At the completion of the correction process, a transaction is written to the Shipping Confirmation Transactions file (OP120BP2).
