Sales Order - Lines (tdsls4100m900)

Use this session to view, enter, maintain, and process a specific sales order and linked sales order lines.

You can specify a sales order header and lines on one screen. This session enables you to quickly enter the most important information for a sales order and to process the order. You can manually specify sales orders, you can use templates if orders reoccur, or you can use catalogs.

Note

This session is mostly used by sales representatives that are in direct phone contact with customers who want to place an order or want to have information on an order, or by sales clerks that must enter a large amount of sales orders in high pace.

Tabs

The lines on the tabs refer to these sessions:

Note
  • If you cannot find a specific sales order line on the Release to Warehousing or the Invoice Lines tabs, the sales order line might not be ready yet for releasing. You can verify if another activity must be carried out first for the line in the Sales Order Line Status (tdsls4534s000) session, which you can start by clicking Status on the appropriate menu of the Lines tab.
  • You can copy existing order lines to new order lines. If you select the order line(s) and click the Duplicate Sales Order Line button, all selected lines are copied into the current sales order.
  • If you select an order line(s) and click the Show attachments button, you can link document revisions to the sales order line in the Objects Links (dmcom8110m000) session and/or link files to the document revision in the File Linking (dmdoc4540m002) session.

The purpose of this field is to serve as a default for the Contract field of the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000) session. However, the action LN takes depends on the value of the Interactive Contract Linking check box in the Sales Contract Parameters (tdsls0100s300) session.
