New Order

Generated when a new order is created in the back office. An email is sent to the bill-to customer of the order that includes the order number and a summary of the order.

 

This notification processes all subsystems except Meetings, Fundraising and Membership.  These have their own notifications for special messaging.

 

The schedule to run this procedure is determined by the Event Interval setup on the Notification Maintenance screen.  This notification will only run once per order.

 

This notification overlaps with  other notifications where a new order and payment is received.  If you use the notification below, change the procedure so two emails are not sent to your customers for the same event:

·            Payment Received

 

Event Stored Procedure Name:  usp_NOTIFY_NEW_ORDER

As of 7.6.1, if any order confirmation text has been defined for the advertising, certification, DCD, exhibition, inventoried, miscellaneous, package, subscription, or transcript product or the product class, the text will be added as the last paragraph to the stored procedure for the notification.

Trigger on Table

None

Business Change Options

·            Staff create orders in the back office that are received by email, fax or mail.  If your policy is to only enter orders with a payment, then you should add the paid amount and balance to the “Order Total” section of the stored procedure.

·            Currently, the subsystems that are excluded are Fundraising, Meetings, and Membership.  You might want to change the stored procedure to exclude others depending on your business requirements.  Exhibits could require that a contract is mailed with the invoice, which is formatted to show the booth detail information.

·            Add attachments to be sent with this notification.  These are added from the screen Product Central > Relationships > Related Files. Keep the file name within the 40 character length limit.
