Consolidating the Current Sales Order With Another

Within Sales Order Entry, you can consolidate the current order with another order to create a separate, new order.

To consolidate the current sales order with another one:

  1. Create or open a sales order and display the order's Body screen.

  2. Use the Mode hot key to display a list of options.

  3. Select Consolidate to New Order and press Enter to display the Consolidate Current Order Gen To screen.

  4. In the Consolidate to Order# field, enter the sales order with which you want to consolidate this one.

  5. In the Copy All Lines field, enter Y to include all lines on the order or N to enter a range in the next two fields.

  6. In the Start Line field, enter the number that identifies the first line on this order to consolidate with the selected order.

  7. In the End Line field, enter the number that identifies the last line on this order to consolidate with the selected order.

  8. In the Leave Items on Order field, enter Y to retain the current order, or N to cancel the items on the current order. If you are copying all lines, the entire order will be cancelled.

  9. To verify that the selected order is the one you want to consolidate with the current order, use the View hot key to display the (view-only) Sales Order Entry Body and Status screens.

  10. If you are satisfied with your selection, use the Begin key to display the Sales Order Entry Body screen and consolidate the orders. The line items that were added include a comment indicating their order source; for example, Consolidated from Order S1324157.

  11. Continue processing the order.
