Days To Keep

The number of days documents of the type should be kept in the system before they can be selected for canceling on the Process Orders (SO501000) form.

Based on this date, the Cancel By date on the Sales Orders (SO301000) form is calculated. If the value is 0, this date is equal to the current business date.

Hold Orders on Entry A check box that indicates (if selected) that the system should save documents of the type with the On Hold status by default.
Hold Document on Failed Credit Check A check box that indicates (if selected) that the system will change the status of the order to Credit Hold if the customer fails the credit check. The credit check is performed each time the order is saved.

This check box is available for editing if the selected order type has the Sales Order, Invoice, Mixed Order, or RMA Order automation behavior specified on the Template tab of the current form.

Remove Credit Hold on Payment Application

A check box that indicates (if selected) that the system will automatically remove a sales order of the type from credit hold when a payment has been applied to the full order amount. The system automatically selects this check box when a user selects Hold Documents on Failed Credit Check for the order type, but you can clear it.

If you clear the Remove Credit Hold on Payment Application check box for the order type, the Credit Hold status will remain unchanged in the sales order when the payment has been applied to the full order amount. In this case, the user can change the Credit Hold status in either of the following ways:

  • For an individual order by opening the order on the Sales Orders (SO301000) form and clicking the Remove Credit Hold command on the More menu
  • For any number of orders by selecting the Remove Credit Hold action on the Process Orders (SO501000) form and processing the needed orders
Attention:
If the customer specified in a sales order has the Credit Hold status on the Customers (AR303000) form, the sales order cannot be moved from the Credit Hold status. It maintains this status even if the Remove Credit Hold on Payment Application check box is selected for the order type on the current form and a payment has been applied to the full order amount.

Ship in Full if Negative Stock Is Allowed

This setting is applicable to sales order lines with stock items that are not serialized and to sales order lines with serialized items that have the When Used assignment method.

Disable Automatic Discount Update

A check box that indicates (if selected) that the system treats already-applied discounts to an order of the type as manual. When a user runs discount recalculation or adds new lines to the order on the Sales Orders form, the system preserves the set of applied discounts; it checks whether these discounts are still applicable for the order, but does not apply any other new discounts to the order. If a user manually changes any of the discountable amounts or quantities in the order, the system recalculates the fixed set of applied discounts based on these changes.

If the check box is cleared for the order type, the system refreshes all automatic line, group, and document discounts.

Recalculate Discount on Partial Shipment

Require Customer Order Nbr. A check box that indicates (if selected) that users must fill in the Customer Order Nbr. box on the Sales Orders form when they are entering new orders of this type. In this case, the system generates an error if the Customer Order Nbr. box is not filled in and validates the entered number for uniqueness, based on the option selected in the Customer Order Nbr. Validation box of the current form. If this check box is cleared, the system does not ensure that the customer order number is specified and does not validate customer order numbers when an order of the type is saved.

  • Allow Duplicates: The system allows the user to enter duplicate customer order numbers on sales orders (that is, the same customer order number can be entered on multiple sales orders).
  • Warn About Duplicates: If a user enters a customer order number that has already been specified in another sales order, the system generates a warning but allows the duplicate number.
  • Forbid Duplicates: The system displays an error message when a user enters a customer order number that has already been specified in any other sales order. The entered document cannot be saved until the user specifies a unique customer order number.
