Business Benefits
In any operation, there will occasionally be a discrepancy between the original Order and the amount actually Shipped. For control purposes, it is important to know when these discrepancies have occurred, so that you can take appropriate steps to remedy the situation or prevent it from happening again. This program produces a Discrepancy List that spotlights these situations.
Note: For related documentation and workflows, see OR - Order Analysis and Adjustments.
Usage
Use this job to print a list of all Cancelled or adjusted lines from Orders, so that the daily Shipped Order Documents can be checked to ensure that all necessary changes were made properly.
The report also includes a reference for all Orders which were entered using program OE.21 [Enter Shipped Orders]; i.e., Orders for which a Shipping Document was created manually or by some other means.
The program divides the Orders by Client, with each Client on a separate page. The Client's page(s) can be sent to him so that he can see what lines were . cancelled because of insufficient stock, or . adjusted at time of confirmation.
The report generates a report number series. Keep a copy of each report for later reference.
Note: An Order will be held in the system until it is either confirmed or Cancelled, so it is important that the report be run at least once a week to delete these Cancelled lines.
Preconditions
