SALES ORDERS - LARGE ORDER AUTHORISATION (01 January 2006)

If you require 'large' sales orders (above a certain value) to be authorised by a manager the system will now let you achieve this. Within Set-up - Customer - Stop Conditions - Raise Sales Order - you can define up to 10 order limits, e.g. ?500, ?1000, ?5000 etc. each with a stop code which is to be applied. Each customer can have a specific limit set using customer alteration and going to customer terms. One of the entries in the pull-down is 'Not Applicable' which is the standard entry that will be set for all existing and new accounts.

On the final screen of raising a sales order the net order value will be compared to the authorisation limit set for the customer (if any) and the order set on hold if above the limit.
