Backorder Creation Header - Edit - Load Invoice

Like the Invoice Creation program, you can create a backorder from a customer’s previous sales. This could be used as an alternative to standing orders. When you select an invoice, Micronet loads that invoice into the backorder, retaining all the previous pricing and quantities. You can then delete, amend or add lines as you require for this backorder.

  1. Display the Backorder Creation Header screen.

Refer to "Maintaining the Backorder Creation Header".

  1. Select EDIT | LOAD INVOICE.

Micronet displays a selection screen showing previous invoices for this customer.

  1. To narrow the list of invoices, complete one or more of the following fields:

 

Field

Value

 

Invoice No

If you know the number of the invoice you want to load, enter it.

 

Order No

If you know the order number for the invoice you want to load, enter it.

Micronet displays the invoices matching your criteria at the bottom of the screen.

  1. Double-click on the invoice you want to load, or select an invoice and press the Enter key.

Micronet redisplays the Backorder Creation Header screen with the details of the invoice.

  1. If you want to edit any of the details on the Backorder Creation Header screen, refer to "Maintaining the Backorder Creation Header".
  1. If you want to edit the backorder lines, select PROCEED or press F2.

If the debtor is set not to allow backorders, Micronet displays the following prompt.

 

Technical Tip

Whether or not a debtor allows backorders is set in the Allow B/O field on the Debtor master file (refer to "File - Debtor - Debtor").

  1. If you want to allow the backorder for the debtor, select Yes. Otherwise, select No.

If you selected Yes, Micronet redisplays the Backorder Creation screen.
