Re: Pick Confirmation - Processing

I do not know if BPCS works correctly for this stuff because we do have 
intermittent problems which we have been attributing to user too many clutz 
kooks (multiple people in the same orders at the same time ... for example, 
shipping clerk tells billing clerk that "we are done for today" then while 
billing is running, shipping clerk goes back into same order to view what is 
due to go out tomorrow, using some maintenance program rather than some 
inquiry)

We have customer orders with many order lines ... some quantity due this 
week, next week, week after ... perhaps several different items on same 
purchase order

If we are shipping the order line that is due right now, we do not what to 
pick confirm all the other lines that are not due until next month ... just 
the lines that we are shipping.

The customer order record consists of a header summary file ECH and detail 
line item file ECL and occasionally we use the special description line file 
ECS

If you have orders that only have one line per order, then it makes no 
difference ... select the whole thing ... for us, it is a big difference, we 
only want to pick the lines we are shipping at this time.
