  • Subject: Bookings reports
  • From: LDEGNON@xxxxxxxxx

We are new to MAPICS, (only since April 2, 2001), and I am attempting to figure
out how to keep history of bookings data.  

I have discovered that The MAPICS daily recap Figure for Bookings calculates the
Bookings dollars for a given time period minus the shipments against the
bookings for that particular period, causing, in my humble opinion, false
numbers! (for example, day 1 I sell 100 widgets for five dollars each, My
bookings, when I run said report for day one are 500 dollars  Day two I sell
nothing, but ship 250 of said widgets, run report for day one, and reported
bookings are down to 250 dollars! 
 
I'm not looking for OPEN BOOKINGS, rather the number of dollars that I did for
the particular time period!  Am I asking for something extraordinary?  I have
NEVER worked with a system that could not, off the shelf, do this!

I am currently using IWP against MTHACTV to give me this info, but it appears
that this info goes away after each month close.  Will MMA solve this problem? 
I KNOW others out there have had this same problem, just what have you done?

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions,
