Sequence numbers on sales orders
Sequence numbers are used if more than one delivery takes place on an order line. More than one delivery can occur, for example, with backorders.
Consequently:
- If an order line is generated in the Sales Order (tdsls4100m900) session, the sales order line's sequence number is zero. You can specify all fields.
- If an order line is split or a backorder is generated for the order line, the original order line's sequence number remains zero. The sequence number for the delivery lines of the split sales order line, or the sequence number of the backorder line are greater than zero.
Note:
- In the Sales Order Line (tdsls4101m900) session, you can specify the sequence number before the order is released.
- Deliveries can be displayed in the Sales Order Lines - Monitor (tdsls4510m000) and Sales Order Actual Delivery Lines (tdsls4106m000) sessions.
Example
Adding an order line:
| Sequence number | Order quantity | Planned delivery date |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 100 | 14/12 |
Splitting of the order line:
| Sequence number | Order quantity | Planned delivery date |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 100 | 14/12 |
| 1 | 80 | 14/12 |
| 2 | 20 | 21/12 |
After final delivery:
| Sequence number | Order quantity | Planned delivery date | Delivered quantity | Backorder quantity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 80 | 14/12 | 70 | 10 |
| 2 | 20 | 21/12 | 20 | 0 |
| 3 | 10 | 28/12 | 10 | 0 |
Sequence number 3 is a backorder line.
