Order Type

[rdingman]

System: 5.3, DB2
We have been flagging orders "F" for future orders. The code appears to change automatically to "A" once the expected ship date equals current date. I just want to confirm that this is handled by Accpac and if so, is there a way to turn off this feature.

Thanks,

Rick

Do you mean OEORDH.TYPE? That should have these values:

1 - Active
2 - Future
3 - Standing
4 - Quote

Yes. The order is set to 2 for future, but is changing to 1 without any user intervention. It appears to be based on current date matching future date.

It changes during IC day end processing when the future date = the current date.
It cannot be turned off, that's what it is designed to do.
