Copy templates

In Infor LN FP3, you can copy sales orders and order lines in the Copy Sales Order (tdsls4201s000) session. In this session, you can enter specific Source fields and Target fields and you can select various copying options.

However, this copy functionality appears to be too limited and does not cover the many copy requirements.

In Infor LN FP4, a new functionality is introduced for copying sales orders and sales order lines, called the copy template functionality. You can now indicate whether or not copy templates are used in the copy sales order (line) process.

With copy templates, you can specify how order (line) data is copied. A copy template includes a standard set of copy exceptions based on which existing orders are copied to target orders. Copy exceptions can be sales order header fields or sales order line fields for which you must define a copying action. If a field is not defined as a copy exception, it means the field is automatically copied from the source order (line) to the target order (line).
