RE: ECH Order Status Codes definition -- BPCS-L

In version 6, don't pay any attention to HSTAT. It's an old status code that
isn't always updated. Some programs do and some don't. It is absolutely
unreliable. 

The codes that you need to look at are CHSTS1 through CHSTS5 on the Header
table and CLSTS1 through CLSTS5 on the Line table. These status indicators
(0 or 1) follow the order line through Pick Release, Pick Confirm, Ship
Release, Ship Confirm and Billing and ultimately to Purge.

Subject: ECH Order Status Codes definition


V5R2M0  -  Ver.6.0.02, plf , full client server, March '98 cum
 
Below is a sql count of records by status code in the ECH file for active
records.
 
What I am looking for is the definition of the HSTAT codes? 
 
I know C=Confirmed, E=Entered, & F=Picked but the manual does not explain
the others so I am looking for some help.
 
<SNIP>
 HSTAT    COUNT ( * )   
   B                1   
   C                8   
   E               31   
   F              113   
   G              114   
   6                5   
   7              251   
8                            435   
<SNIP>
 
The codes I see in my ECH are A, B, C, E, F, G, 4, 6, 7, 8.
 
As I was looking through the manuals for the above codes, I also found this
& I wonder how it is possible that an order line can have more than one
status?  Was I sleeping during that day of instruction?  The reason I am
asking is because I have about 40 orders that have this situation & we are
having problems picking & running "Load Control || Loads Dispatched" against
some of these orders.  
 
<SNIP from the COM Manual on page 112>
Status:
BPCS displays the order status for this order.  This value represents the
next step(s) in the order processing cycle that any line on the order is
ready to complete.  
A single order line may have several statuses associated with it at any
point in time.
Values of 0 or 1 display in each of the five positions of the status.  The
positions represent the following statuses and header fields:

Thanks - Dennis.
