RE: Open Orders at status 00

I see this happen when a user changes the order quantity to the shipped
quantity on an order.  E.g., you get an order for 10, ship 9.  The
customer calls and says 9 is enough.  User changes the order quantity to
9 (assuming it's the only part on the order) and now you have an open
order with no open items, even if they correctly F2 and enter to end
order so the status is set to 00.  MAPICS does not know the order is
complete and it remains open waiting for whatever, a new line item, etc.
We have trained users to just delete the open order in that situation.

We have this happen from time to time--someone has gone in to the order 
via
maintenance and not exited correctly.  You can just delete the
order--all
the line item shipments have gone to history.

To the list,
Sometimes orders get into status 00 and I have not yet been able to
figure
out how (I know it is probably some sort of "pilot error").  These
orders
appear to be shipped/invoiced complete and do not have any backorders.
Any
ideas...

Thanks...
Eric
