Customer Administration Change Ship To Report overview

Customer > Reports > AR Reports > ARAS

Function acronym: ARAS

Use this report to change an existing ship to designator to a new ship to designator.

When changing ship to designators, all records with the old ship to designator are changed to the new designator. The old ship to designator is deleted. If you specify an existing ship to designator in the New Shipto field, you get an error when you run the report and the rename fails.

Note: Changing ship to records can be a slow process. We recommend that you change ship to designators when other processes are not being executed.

Note: If accounts receivable updates are entered when the Customer Administration Change Ship To Report is run, important data may be lost.

We recommend that if you run the Customer Administration Change Ship To Report to process multiple ship-to changes, you run it as a stored report and use a job name. If the function fails during processing, you can run the report again without re-entering all the new and old ship-to designators.

The report lists all files that were updated with the new ship-to designator. If any active transactions exist, they are listed.
