Work with sales orders or Service orders, Order line, Main info (DMR30701)

Related topics

The title differs depending on from where you accessed the panel; either from

  • the Sales tasks menu, or
  • the Service order tasks menu (DC1 Service must be installed and activated).

Note: If you are in Work with orders in error mode, the main title of the panel will read Work with orders in error, Order line, main info and any erroneous information will be highlighted after you click OK. In addition, not all functions via the fnc list will be available.

On this panel you enter detailed information for the order line.

DI information

When DI is activated a tracking file is used to carry the original values for Item code, Quantity, Unit, Sales price and Dispatch time. (Note: DI tracking is controlled by order type.) Tracking is also performed for changes to these fields in manually entered orders (i.e. entered via mail, fax or phone and confirmed by DI). All order confirmation formats (paper, fax, e-mail and EDI) indicate any changes to these fields.

Note: When DI order confirmations are printed the print program compares the original values with the actual values and indicates any changes on the order confirmation printout. When a sales order line is deleted all information relating to this line is removed from the tracking file.

Batch-controlled items

The Batch entry panel will be displayed for batch-controlled items by clicking Batch, if any of the following applies:

  • New line – the order type is without pick list.
  • Changed line – quantity is changed, the order line status is 40 or 45 and if a pick list has not been printed for the order.

The Batch entry panel is not displayed if any of the following applies:

  • the order is a credit order with pick list
  • BtB order
  • Internal order
  • MDC order
  • sales order type has Update stock on hand = NO.

If deleting a cash sale order and/or a single cash sale line, the Batch file and Inventory transaction creation routine will only be updated for a batch-controlled item if order type has the Update stock on hand field set to YES in the Sales order type table.

Profit check

If limits are defined per item group in the Profit/margin limits table, a profit check is done to calculate the line profit, when the order line entered. If the profit for the order line is not within acceptable limits, a warning is displayed. If the profit is too low or too high, it signals the handler of the order to look at the prices and discounts. This warning, however, can be overridden by clicking OK.

A profit check will not be performed on line level if:

  • the line is free of charge (FOC)
  • the line belongs to a structure
  • quantity is negative
  • a credit order

If limits are defined per order type in the Profit/margin limits table, a profit check on order level is performed, based on the order type, when the order is complete and Back is clicked. If the profit for the order is not within acceptable limits, a warning is displayed. Price/discount information on line level can be changed, if necessary. Alternatively, the Sales order profit enquiry can be accessed to the view the profit situation for the order.

This warning can also be overridden by clicking Back again to accept the profit and complete the order.

Note: No profit check is performed on order level if a credit order.

Pricing and discount information

Split lines will not automatically be re-priced when quantity is changed. If a manual re-price is started for a split line, a warning message will be displayed, informing the user that the quantity on the split line will be used in re-pricing and may cause another price than from the original price calculations.

Availability check information

Note: If DC1 Manufacturing is installed and activated, order lines holding items of class 2 and 3 will be handled as transit orders. When entering an order line holding an item of class 2 and an item type of 1 or 2, the transit code will be set to YES and an availability check will be done for transit orders. When the order line is of BtB type, or when an order line holding an item (or items) of class 2 is created, an availability control against normal stock will be performed. If there is enough normal stock to cover the order quantity a warning message will be displayed. You may, however, ignore this message and continue with the order line.

When a sales order line is entered against an item/warehouse that allows transit, the “net on hand quantity in transit” will be controlled. If there is a surplus in the transit quantity that covers the order quantity, a message to this effect will be displayed. Take note, however, that this is not valid for fictitious items.

For a produced item, availability check is done according to the item’s bill of routing and/or sales and operation plan if this is specified for the item in the Item file. If the item is not available and the item’s bill of material and/or bill of routing have been used for the availability check, you will be able to select the MTRCAP (Material/capacity clearance enquiry) program function to analyse the shortage.

  • The order is not a credit order, internal or BtB order.

When the requested quantity, according to the rules, is covered by NCC quantity the NCC number will be retrieved when adding an order line and displayed in this field, with a message displayed. This denotes that the order quantity is covered by NCC stock and that a reservation of the order quantity is made on the NCC. A value can also be entered manually, changed and blanked out in order to remove the NCC stock reservation. Note: A re-price will be done if the following is true:

  • NCC number is entered/changed (except when a price/discount has been manually entered, Main info Price code = 180)
  • NCC number is removed and the price was retrieved from that NCC number (Price code = 100 or 101).

See About NCC selling for more information.

Warehouse
Displays the warehouse entered for this sales order line on the initial panel. You cannot mix warehouses if a complete delivery is defined for the customer. The warehouse cannot be changed if:

  • batch records exist for the order line. Any batch records must be deleted before the warehouse is changed.
  • the order line is created from a delivery schedule.
Sourcing pol
Displays the sourcing policy defined for any of the following and searched/picked in the following order:

OFR used
Displayed for informational purposes only and does not have any influence when an existing line is changed or replanned. The first part of this field displays the OFR code retrieved from the order header for the customer. If the OFR code was manually entered when creating an order line, to override the code retrieved from the order header, the second part of this field will display the manually entered code. See OFR (Order Fulfilment Rule) code.

Pricing

Sales price
Displays the manually entered or retrieved sales price (see Retrieval of sales price), but can be changed. If you change the price the gross margin is updated accordingly.
Price unit
Only displayed if the PRCUNIT (Price unit handling) function is activated in the Function control file and is an optional entry here. See About price unit handling for more information. If you choose to let the system automatically retrieve a price and a Default sales price unit is defined for the item this field is normally left blank and the value is retrieved together with the price. You can, however, enter a price unit manually. Note: If you enter a price manually and your company uses Price unit handling, but no price unit is defined in this field, the default sales price unit will be retrieved and displayed as a default. The sales unit is the unit used for retrieval of the sales price. See Example: Pricing unit for sales order/quotation line.
Prc unit qty
Only displayed if the PRCUNIT (Price unit handling) function is activated in the Function control file. Displays the price unit quantity (Main info the sales quantity presented according to the price unit). See About price unit handling for more information.
Catch weight
This field is only displayed if the CTCH-WGT (Catch weight) function is activated in the Function control file and is an extension of price unit handling. The setting in this field is retrieved from the Item file for the Item/Unit and determines if you will be allowed to change the price unit quantity for the order line.

This field is only open for input if the following is true:

  • the item on the order line is not a fictitious item.
  • the item on the order line is not a serial number controlled item.
  • The order line is less than status 30.
  • The order is not an Internal replenishment order.

If the Item’s sales unit is defined for Catch weight handling, this flag will be defaulted with a YES setting but can be changed to NO. Likewise, if the Item’s sales unit is not defined for Catch weight handling, this flag will be defaulted with a NO setting but can be changed to YES. Note: If the item on the order line is a structure parent a check is performed against the sales price calculation code for the structure type for both the current (parent) item and for items included in a structure. If the sales unit is defined for catch weight and the structure type for the item has sales price calculation code 1 (Parent sales price is used. Components prices are set to zero) or 3 (Components sales prices are summarized and added to parent’s sales price and then set to zero) this flag will be set to NO and cannot be changed since catch weight handling is not supported when components sales price is set to zero.

See About catch weight handling for price units for more information.

FOC
Indicate if the sales order line will be free of charge.

Note: The FOCTYPE (Free from VAT charge type) function must be activated in the Function control file. If this field is set to YES, then the sales order line will be exempt from VAT charge.

Note: If the net line price is negative the line will automatically be put on hold. See Fix negative prices for more information.

Net line am
Displays the net amount, excluding header discounts, in system currency for the line. It is calculated as:

Net line sales price * quantity

Note: This field can only display a maximum of 10 positions, including any decimal point. If the amount exceeds this value, this field will display the last 10 positions in the amount. However, the database will be updated correctly.

Cost price
Only displayed if the item is a fictitious item, or the system cost type is FIFO and this is a credit note. Enter the cost price of the item, in system currency, indicating the stock value. The cost price is used, for example, when calculating the profit margin of the order line.

The field is optional if the sales order type for the order has been defined with Update stock on hand set to NO.

If a fictitious item, this field displays the standard cost price from the Item file if the item type for this item has the Fict std cost retr field set to YES in the Fictitious item type table. This can be changed.

Man priced
Output only. This field is populated during the very first entry of the line and is set to YES if the user manually enters a price and/or discount and/or the FOC field is set YES. In all other cases it will be set to NO. If the price and/or discount is added or changed later on for the line it will not affect this flag.

This field works in conjunction with the handling of additional discounts. If the Additional discount field in DIS control file is set to NO and you manually enter a price or discount at creation then no other discounts, except H type will be automatically applied during the pricing and re-pricing of this line. See The types of discounts automatically applied to the line for more information.

FOC
Indicate if the order line will be free of charge.
Discount ID
Displays the discount id, holding the reason for the discount, that was assigned to the discount amount or discount percentage. If multiple line discounts exist, this is identified by the panel value *MULT in this field. Tip: Access the function for Discounts from the Function list to view the Line discount information.
Qty to inv
This field is only displayed if the Bonus pricing policy parameter is set to YES in the DIS control file. If the same item bonus functionality is set up in the system and the setup stipulations are met for the item on the order line, the quantity that is invoiced to the customer will be less than the ordered quantity for the item. This field displays the quantity that will be invoiced for this order line, but can be changed. If changed it must not be greater than the ordered quantity.
Ctrb ord sum
This field is only displayed if the Order summary disc field in the DIS control file is set to YES. This flag is retrieved from the Item file during line entry, but can be maintained. It controls if the line contributes to the summary of quantities and amounts in the basket qualification and the order summary discount calculation. At the same time it controls if the line benefits from any order line summary discounts (O-type) and header discounts (H-type). All lines that do not contribute to the order summary will NEVER benefit from it, in other words no order line summary discounts will be applied and no header discount will be apportioned over these lines.
Exp reb amt
Only displayed if the DC1 Customer/Supplier Rebates (RBT) application is installed and activated. This field displays the expected rebate amount for the sales order line according to system currency. The expected rebate amount is considered in gross margin calculation. The gross margin is calculated as:

Net line value – Cost value / Net line value

(where net line value = Net line amount – Expected rebate amount, and Cost value is equal to Line cost value + SMS rebate amount).

Ord sum disc
This field is only displayed if the Order summary disc field in the DIS control file is set to YES. The field is updated to the order/quotation line from the sales price and discount calculation program and is set to YES as long as originating price source and none of the applied discounts are set up with Order summary discounts set to NO. The field only controls if the line benefits from any order line summary discounts (O-type) and header discounts (H-type). If a line does not contribute to the order summary then it does not benefit from it, regardless of how this field is set.
Mrg line cst
Only displayed if you are authorised. Displays the margin line cost value basis in system currency. This cost is used to calculate the profit margin. The value is calculated accordingly:

Order line quantity x Margin cost price basis (1) in system currency and in price unit (2)
(1) Is retrieved using the Margin cost basis defined in the Item file or in the DIS control file
(2) Is calculated from cost unit by dividing the margin cost price basis with the conversion factor for the cost unit
Gross margin
Only displayed if you are authorised. Gross margin is based on the Margin cost basis flag in the Item file or in the DIS control file. Displays the gross margin percentage of the sales order line, which is calculated as follows:

(Net sales price – Margin cost price basis) / Net sales price

Note: If you have authority, you can manually change the gross margin in the Gross margin input field below. If you change it, both this field and the sales price (in the Sales price field) will be updated accordingly.

Note: If you change the sales price of the item in the Sales price field, this gross margin will be updated accordingly.

Gross margin
Only displayed if you are authorised. Entry is not allowed for structure components where the parent has pricing code 1 or 3. Manually enter the gross margin percentage for the order line. After clicking OK the gross margin will be updated in the Gross margin field above and the sales price for the line will be updated accordingly. Note: Any existing discounts will also be affected.
