Modifying EDI Orders Allowed

If this check box is selected, you can manually modify orders with the origin EDI.

Note

LN cannot create freight orders for sales orders that originate from EDI.

Generate Projects (PCS) from Internal EDI Orders

If this check box is selected, projects received by means of intercompany order exchange are generated in the receiving company. LN only generates the project if this is received in combination with product variant data.

If this check box is cleared, LN does not generate the project code, but prints a list. To generate a project automatically, you must start the Generate (Project PCS) Structure for Sales Orders (tdsls4244m000) session from the Sales Order (tdsls4100m900) session, or the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000) session.

Confirm Back Orders automatically

If this check box is selected, back orders are automatically confirmed.

Back orders can be automatically confirmed when:

  • Deliveries are reported back from Warehousing and the Shipping Constraint field in the Sold-to Business Partner (tccom4110s000) session is None.
  • Deliveries are reported back from Procurement with the Update Sales / Service Order with Delivery Information (tdpur4222m000) session. This applies if the sales order has a linked direct delivery purchase order.

Margin Control

If this check box is selected, the margin control functionality is enabled.

LN checks whether the sales price of an item on a sales order line or quotation line differs too much from the target price. You can determine the action to be taken (blocking, signaling, or logging) in the Margin Control Parameters (tdsls0120m000) session. The target price is determined by the Target Price for Margin Control field in the Sales Order Parameters (tdsls0100s400) session.

Note

For margin control, the allowed deviation from the target price by upper and lower margins can be defined in the Items - Sales (tdisa0501m000) session.

If this check box is selected, and sales quotations for the item and the sold-to business partner exist, LN displays a warning during order input.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Disable unused concepts and Sales order checks.

Time-Phased Inventory Check

If this check box is selected, LN performs a time-phased inventory check on the availability of sufficient inventory during the item's order lead time.

LN does not consider the difference between the inventory on hand and the allocations at order entry. Instead, LN considers the difference between the inventory on hand and all planned inventory transactions during the entire order lead-time.

Note

If the CTP Check for Sales check box is selected in the Planning Parameters (cprpd0100m000) session, no time-phased inventory check, but a CTP check is executed for the planned item.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Sales order checks.

Extended Inventory Check

If this check box is selected, an extended check on available inventory for sales order lines and sales order component lines can be performed.

Whether or not this functionality is applicable for a sales order, depends on the setting of the Extended Inventory Check check box in the Sales Order Types (tdsls0594m000) session. If this check box is selected, a sales order's (component) lines receive an order promising status based on which delivery of the lines can or cannot be promised to the customer.

Extended Kit Handling Implemented

If this check box is selected, extended functionality for the inventory handling of components is implemented, which enables you to handle components by means of component lines.

If you handle components by means of component lines, the following is applicable:

  • Overall visibility is provided on the entire structure of the sales order items and their components.
  • Individual components can be shipped. For each component an outbound order line is created.
  • Individual components can be directly delivered. For each component a purchase order line is created.
  • BOM changes can be processed during the order lead time.
  • Invoices are created for completed sales order line items or for surplus.

If this check box is cleared, limited functionality for the inventory handling of components is implemented. You cannot handle components by means of component lines.

Confirm Component Back Orders automatically

If this check box is selected, back orders for component lines are automatically confirmed.

Back orders can be automatically confirmed when:

  • Deliveries are reported back from Warehousing and if the Shipping Constraint field in the Sold-to Business Partner (tccom4110s000) session is None.
  • Deliveries are reported back from Procurement with the Update Sales / Service Order with Delivery Information (tdpur4222m000) session. This applies if the sales order has a linked direct delivery purchase order.
Order Line Price for Returns

This parameter is used to determine the process to invoice kits that are returned.

If this check box is selected, returned kits are invoiced with an invoice quantity equal to the ordered quantity. The default price is the sales order line price.

If the ordered components do not match the received components, the Change Prices and Discounts of Sales Invoice Lines (tdsls4132m000) session is activated (if part of the order procedure) by the application. Consequently, automatic invoicing of the line is prevented and you can change the invoice amount for the main item.

The actual cost of goods sold (COGS) of the invoice line includes the aggregated actual COGS of the received components.

If this check box is cleared, returned kits are invoiced (credited) with the invoice quantity and price set to zero, and an invoice amount that includes the aggregated cost of goods sold of the received components.

The invoice amount is defaulted in the Change Prices and Discounts of Sales Invoice Lines (tdsls4132m000) session in which you can confirm or change the amount.

Zero Surplus Invoice

This parameter is used to determine the process to invoice surplus quantity.

If this check box is selected, a surplus invoice line is created with the quantity, price, and amount set to zero. This invoice line is not sent to the customer.

The actual cost of goods sold (COGS) of the invoice line includes the aggregated actual COGS of the delivered components. The invoice is not printed (sent), but released to Invoicing to post the COGS of the invoice line. A specific invoice scenario and transaction type are used for this purpose.

Note: If you specify an invoice amount other than zero in the Change Prices and Discounts of Sales Invoice Lines (tdsls4132m000) session before releasing the line to Invoicing, the line is handled as a normal invoice line.

If this check box is cleared, a surplus invoice line is created with the quantity and price set to zero, and an invoice amount that includes the aggregated cost of goods sold of the components. The invoice line is sent to the customer.

The invoice amount is defaulted in the Change Prices and Discounts of Sales Invoice Lines (tdsls4132m000) session in which you can confirm or change the amount.

Log Component History

If this check box is selected, history data for sales order component lines is logged.

If this check box is selected, history is written to the Sales Order Line Components History (tdsls4553m000) session. If the Log Actual Order Delivery History check box is also selected in this session, history is also written to the Sales Order Line Component Actual Deliveries History (tdsls4557m000) session.

The following is logged for component lines:

  • Creation of lines
  • Manual changes and modifications due to BOM changes
  • Termination and cancellation of lines
  • Finalization of lines

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Log history data.

If this check box is selected, sales shipment cost orders are automatically approved.

If this check box is cleared, sales shipment cost orders must be manually approved.

Target Price for Margin Control

You can determine which price will be used as a target price in margin control.

This field does not apply to gross margin control. For gross margin control, the target price always is the item's standard cost, as recorded in the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session, or if an effectivity unit is involved, as recorded in the Effectivity Unit (tcuef0102m000) session.

Note

Commitment lead time = factor * order lead time + constant 
Commitment Lead Time Constant (Hours)

The commitment date is calculated during inventory commitment. Part of this calculation is the item's commitment lead time. This lead time can be a factor times the item's normal lead time plus a constant. In this field, you define the value of the constant in the following formula:

Commitment lead time = factor * order lead time + constant

Constant 1 for Back Order Priority

LN uses this parameter to assign a higher priority to back orders. When back orders are confirmed, the priority is changed according to the following formula:

New priority = (old priority / (number of back orders * constant 1))  - constant 2

If constant 1 is zero, the formula is as follows:

New priority = old priority - constant 2 
Constant 2 for Back Order Priority

Use this parameter to assign a higher priority to back orders. When back orders are confirmed, the priority is changed according to the following formula:

New priority = (old priority / (number of back orders * constant 1))  - constant 2

If constant 1 is zero, the formula is as follows:

New priority = old priority - constant 2

Log Order History

If this check box is selected, history must be logged for sales orders and sales order installments.

Only if this check box is selected, history can be logged in various sales order-related history sessions, such as:

  • Sales Order History (tdsls4550m000)
  • Sales Order Line History (tdsls4551m000)
  • Sales Order Installments History (tdsls4552m000)
  • Sales Order Actual Delivery Line History (tdsls4556m000)
Important!
  • In the Sales Order Actual Delivery Line History (tdsls4556m000) session, LN always logs turnover history for processed delivery lines. If the Log Actual Order Delivery History check box is also selected in the current session, history for unprocessed delivery lines is also logged in the Sales Order Actual Delivery Line History (tdsls4556m000) session.
  • Order history is not only used for future analysis, but also for reconciliation, retrobilling, commissions and rebates, and statistics. These processes require both (un)processed sales order actual delivery line history from the Sales Order Actual Delivery Line History (tdsls4556m000) session and sales order line history from the Sales Order Line History (tdsls4551m000) session.
  • To always use the same parameter history setting for a specific sales order, the current parameter setting is defaulted to the Log Order History field in the Sales Orders (tdsls4100m000) session at the moment the sales order is created. During the life cycle of the sales order, this field cannot be changed.
