Order Entry Subsystem Application Parameters

The following application parameters for the Order Entry (ORD) subsystem need to be defined before working with orders. For more information on application parameters, please see Setting Up Application Parameters.

Parameter

Default Value

Description

ALLOW_DISCOUNT_RECALC_ON_INVOICED_LINES

Y

This parameter allows an organization to define whether they want users to be able to have the system re-evaluate and recalculate discounts on invoiced and proforma order lines.

 

When set to "Y", the Recalculate Discount on Inv. Lines button will be displayed on the Order Entry (ORD001) and Insertion Orders (ADV002) screens. If set to "N", the button will not be available on those screens.

 

For more information, please see Calculating Discounts on an Order.

AUTO_VALIDATE_PRODUCT_SETUP

N

This parameter allows organizations to control how a product setup gets validated.  Some organizations want this to be done manually by a manager, so that setups (particularly GL accounts) can be reviewed.  Other organizations only allow managers to create products, so they want the product validation to happen automatically, as soon as all required setups have been completed.  When set to Y, the system will automatically update the Product.VALID_FLAG to Y as soon as all required product setups have been completed.  When set to N, a user must manually check the Validate Product task.

CC_ACCEPTED

DEFAULT

This parameter controls the types of credit cards accepted by the organization and display at the bottom of the ORD660 invoices. Enter active codes defined for the RECEIPT_TYPE system type or enter "DEFAULT" to select all credit card receipt types.

It is recommended that you ONLY enter active RECEIPT_TYPE codes, because inactive codes will still display on the ORD660 invoice.

DEFAULT_WRITE_OFF_ON_CANCEL

YES

Controls whether the Cancellation screen will include a write-off option by default. Please note that this is not a security option.

DEFER_CALCULATION

N

When set to “Y,” the order calculations will be deferred until the order is saved or the user opts to compute the calculations before saving. Please note that you should set this parameter to Y if you have a lot of large orders.

MAXIMUMORDERSTOPROCESSFORORD660

25000

The parameter will decide the number of records to process. For example, if the value is 25000, then maximum number of Orders/Invoices can be processed are 25000. The parameter is used for Invoice Printing via ORD660.

NUMBEROFRECORDSTOPROCESS

1000

The number of records that can be processed at one time. For example, if this values is 1000, the orders will be processed in a batch of 1000. This parameter is used for ORD500 process.

RECALC_NAMED_ASSOC_DUES

N

If set to "N", the named associate dues will not recalculate when a user changes an active membership. If set to Y, the dues will recalculate upon a change to the active membership.

STOP_FULFILLMENT_ON_REJECT

YES

As of 7.6.1, a new TRS process has been introduced to update DCD product orders that were previously created for pre-order purchasing of then unavailable digital content. ECD620 adds the now available digital content to the order line, as well as updates the Fulfill Status to Active and, therefore, invoices the order lines.

 

If the credit card is rejected for the DCD product order line selected by the ECD620 process in PROD mode, when this application parameter is set to YES, the records will appear on the ECD620PreAuthError report and the order lines are not updated with digital content and, therefore, remain univoiced. In this case, the fulfill status for the order line selected will be updated to Held.

 

If this application parameter is set to NO, the order lines will still populate the ECD620PreAuthError report but will also have digital content added, Fulfill Status updated to Active, and become invoiced.  

STOP_SHIPPING_ON_REJECT

YES

Controls whether the inventoried item can be shipped if the deferred credit card gets rejected.

 

If this parameter is set to Y, the item will NOT be shipped if the credit card is rejected. For example, a user places an order for a product that is back-ordered. A few weeks later you run INV620 to reverify the credit card and to process the order. If the credit card was rejected, the product stops being shipped and it is placed on hold. If this parameter is set to N, the item will be shipped even if the credit card is rejected.

USE_BILL_TO_PRIMARY_ADDRESS_CURRENCY

Y

When this parameter is set to Y, the system uses the bill-to customer's preferred currency for the order. When this parameter is set to N, the system uses your organization's base currency for the order.
