Re: Customer Order Missing after BIL620

from Al Macintyre

We're on 405 CD & I'm currently merging Y2K bug fix BMRs for this program (& 
a bunch of others), with our mods ,,, wg\hich basically are print layout with 
ingredients like
from warehouse get facility
from facility get shipped-from address
if blank line, vertical adjust like shipped to

BMRs in BIL620 which you might like to know about & make sure you have 
installed, include:

2606
duplicate EIL records created

1469 & 6661
in the scenario of an ECH whose only corresponding record was a special line, 
there were several related problems causing incorrect ECH coding with respect 
to status & soft delete & access

18470
document could be written to the wrong type

38763 
date messed up

42563 
misleading header

46117 
deleted post ship orders were generating unwanted output ... invoice documents

49277
promotions on RMA weren't getting into GL

Al comment = We run query right before ORD990 to list problem clues to help 
us do repair reconstruction work.

Al comment = Sometimes SSA fixes stuff & announces the fix on OSG without 
informing relevant customers.
