Customer Order Type

A customer order type is the collective identity for a number of settings that regulate the processing of customer orders throughout the customer order flow.

The customer order type is specified for the customer order during entry. The customer order is then connected to a line of values which regulate whether a credit check or reasonability check are activated, whether the order is bonus or commission generating, and whether the order can be over-shipped.

A customer order type is specified for every customer registered in the customer file. It is then entered by default during customer order entry, but can be changed.

Customer order types are entered in 'CO Types. Open' (OIS010).
