RE: Orders not selected for billing -- BPCS-L

The B Stat would indeed need to be blank.  I have been correcting these
kinds of problems for 8 years in BPCS. (Problems typically caused by a
user and not the software)  Thanks Roger for the piece I left out.  Also 
if you have the same type problems in post ship billing, You will need
to correct the in use flag on the EWR file.  It would also be helpful if
people who are asking for help would include the version of the software
they are running.  That would possibly stop the "YOU IDIOT, THAT DOES
NOT WORK BECAUSE I AM ON 6.0 MESSAGES".  Also if you have support, this
could be a priority call on the SSA helpline and is typically resolved
on the first phone call.  Much quicker than the ping pong messages on
this mailing list.

___________________________________________

The BPCS 4.0 and BPCS 405 CD do create the BBL records in the
confirmation process.  The BBH records are created when invoicing -
BIL500.  I think the BPCS 5.0 does too.

I think the problem is the BSTAT field in the BBL has "B" in it meaning
it is in the bill process.  Think it should be blank. Not 100% sure.

Roger Wolf
