Sales order history

You can use sales order history to track the creation and modification of sales orders and installment orders. You can keep certain information after the original order is completed.

To register the history of orders that are created, canceled, or processed, select the Log Order History, Log EDI Order History and Log Actual Order Delivery History check boxes in the Sales Order Parameters (tdsls0100s400) session.

Contents of history files

The order history includes these files:

  • All created order (line) transactions. These orders and lines are not yet processed.
  • All invoiced order (line)s. These are the processed orders and lines. When an order is invoiced, the history also includes the gross profit of the order line.

The history files are of these record types:

  • Intake

    The order line was added, changed, or deleted.
  • Cancellation

    The order line was canceled.
  • Turnover

    The order line was processed in the Process Delivered Sales Orders (tdsls4223m000) session.

The fields in this table determine if, when, and how the order history files are updated:
