On the Sales Order Entry Body screen, you can select any of several columnar views to display specific information about an order. For example, if a salesperson wants to see the commission percentage for each item on the order, he or she could change to a view that includes that information.
The views you can choose from depend on your authorization in the system. For example, views that show sensitive pricing information are not available to everyone. Some custom views are also set up in User Maintenance. If you need a view that is not available to you, see your system administrator.
Use the following control maintenance records to update cost views:
For any views that include a unit price, your company specifies whether it wants to display unit price based on the order unit of measure or not, using the Show Unit Price And Unit Of Measure Based On Order Unit Of Measure control maintenance record.
For any views that include an Avail (availability) column, note that this column can display any of the following:
A date — The date on which enough product to fulfill the order will become available.
Now (followed by an available quantity) — There is enough product to fulfill the order, and the quantity shown will be available after this order is satisfied.
Today — No product is available at this moment, but enough of the item to fulfill the order is expected today.
*I* Plen — There is an in-process quantity, but plenty is available.
*I* (followed by an available quantity) — There is an in-process quantity, but the quantity shown will be available after the current quantity is committed.
