Document Inquiry (SOI620)

How to

The Document Inquiry program allows you to inquire into any sales orders (including blanket sales orders), quotes, or past invoices in the system. You can display the actual document in detail through this program.

Details

You can inquire by document number. Displayed information includes document number, type, status, and entry date, customer number and name, ship-to number, document total, and designated warehouse salesperson, and order priority

In Past Invoice mode, the AR Disputed indicator and memo also display on the main screen. In Quote mode, there are also a few slight differences in the screen display.

If the View Description 1 option is "off", a memo will now display in the Full Description column (at the end of the browser). If the View Description 1 option is "on", the memo will now display in the Description column.

For Past Documents, the line browser displays all lines that are in SOPIND table for the current document. Since a past document can be tied to several invoices, the browser does not display line (seq) numbers. You do not need to enter a line number to access line detail. For past documents, there is no Current mode in.

For past invoices, you can select File-->Print to access the past Invoice Print (SOC240) program, which allows you to print past invoices by route and warehouse.

Sales order document notes

For open quotes and open sales order documents and past invoices, document and line notes are available to view or edit, based on your user security access. For past documents, notes are only available to view/edit (, based on your user security access) from the Invoice view (accessed by the Invoice button) of Document Inquiry.

Disputed document indicator

The SO Doc Inquiry in view-only Past Invoice mode provides an indicator for disputed documents. If any of the corresponding open invoice records in AROPEN are disputed, the text "*Disputed Invoice*" and memo are displayed in the upper portion of the SO Doc Inquiry screen.. For example, if you have an open invoice with split terms and only one of the terms is in dispute, the drill to SO Doc Inquiry will display the disputed indicator for both continuation lines. The disputed memo (50 characters) is the first encountered memo for that invoice (first disputed continuation).

The AR Disputed indicator only appears in Past Invoice mode.

Price level information

SO Doc Inquiry line detail contains a field labeled Price Origin. If Price Type is "P", the field contains the standard price description from the IC Static Control record. If Price Type is "L", the field contains the level price description from IC Static that corresponds to D3$(12,1) - Level field.

Ordered amount column

The Ordered amount column header displays as "Orig Ord" in Overview mode for Open Docs and Past Docs and displays the original ordered amount. In Current mode, the column displays as "Ordered’ and displays the current ordered amount.
