An order structure is a group of items (parent item and components) that are connected to each other and sold as a whole.

The following describes the retrieval of an order structure where you have the possibility to either add or delete component lines and/or component quantities.

Prerequisites
The Changeable field in the Structure type table must be set to YES for the structure type connected to the parent item.

  1. Repeat steps 1 through 3 in Manually enter a sales order.
  2. On the Order lines panel, enter the code for the parent item (this parent item should be defined as Changeable) in the Item/Assortment field and quantity in the Quantity field. Click OK.
  3. You access the Structures panel, displaying both the parent item and all components in the order structure. (Note: If the parent item is a fictitious item, the Order line, main info panel will be displayed before this panel. This is because you always have to enter/confirm the cost price for an order line with a fictitious item.) You have several options on this panel. You can:
    • Change the Quantity, Dispatch date and Critical status of the parent item (in the upper section of the panel).
    • Add new component lines. Click Add. The input fields are displayed on the bottom of the panel. Add the information and click OK.
    • Change the Quantity and Unit of a component line.

    Make your changes and click one of the following function keys:

    • Click All unmarked lines if you want to copy all component lines that are not marked.
    • Mark the lines you want to copy and click All marked lines.
  4. You return to the Order lines panel where the system displays both the added parent item line and component lines. Note: Whether or not the component lines are displayed with a price, depends on how the structure type used for the order structure was set up.
