Define customer order entry message
Customer order entry messages are entered in 'CO Entry Message. Open' (OIS165). A customer order message is entered, and the criteria for its display is specified. The display criteria are the selection identities that regulate when the message is displayed. This can be for a specific customer, or all customers in a business chain or customer order category. For example, when the criteria is a business chain, the message is displayed for every customer that belongs to that chain.

When entering a new customer order on 'Customer Order. Open' (OIS100/A), the order message is displayed on screen if parameters are set up correctly. It is possible to choose not to display recurring messages. If there is more than one message available, the one with the highest priority is displayed first where 9 is the highest priority and 1 the lowest priority.
