SOP Help Required!!

Posted on by 85

Hey Guys,

I deeply appreciate any support in this matter.

Scenario is:

The SOP Setup is to have Sales Orders with QTY Allocation set to none. I've developed a cutsom form which will take care of the items allocation manually (QTY to Invoice - QTY to back order) based on the availabilty of the items and it updates back the Sales Order perfectly.

My question is: I need to backorder Items from the sales order, and do the invoicing back from the Sales Order, so the Back Order (Once the items are purchased and received) has to update the same Sales Order with the quantities received (all SOP document types were setup perfectly) with the option to allow repeating document.

From the Back Order i am selecting the same Sales Order reference and when transfering back to Sales Order i am getting the next counter of Sales Order (system generated).

How can I bypass this issue?

appreciate immediate support from your side and thanking you for your kind assitance in advance.

    Can they use the master number for the document number that the contract is assigned To? I do not think you can change the gp behavior

    Thanks Richard,,

    I just wanted to verify the purpose of having the (allow repeating documents) option..  thanks for that..

    Well,, that's not what I am looking for, as the sales cycle needed is to invoice from Sales Orders only that's why i need to have the same Sales Order document number when transferring from BackOrders to Sales Orders..  

    "the system might have moved the Sales Order to history if fully backordered"

    The Sales Order document number is very important to this client as it's a binding document which customers refers to it (Sales Order Doc Num).. so transfering back from BO will create a new Document Number in the Sales Order which will confuse tracking by clients for sure...

    Any suggestion in this regard?

    When you say the "next counter" I am assuming that you mean the next document number.  This is by design and you cannot have two orders with the same number, even if recurring is turned on.

    The Master Number, when enabled, is assigned to the transaction when it is first created.  The Master Number is the same for all documents in a transaction. So when quote 101 / Master Number 500 turns into order 201, it carries Master Number 500.  If a back order is created, it has MN 500 and any new order created from the BO carries a new order number but the same Master Number.
