Re: Shipment Status Change from 00 to 20

Just a thought as to the underlying cause of these status '00' shipments. Do you have a new user who hasn't had the defaults set up correctly? This has happened several times before where a new user gets trained, and then when they fill in as a backup or overflow, their shipments are going to a status '00'. If this is the case make sure they hit F22 during a shipment creation to select "Ready to Invoice" = Y. It should remember this as their default from now on.

We also run a preliminary report (from Query/400) that separates out the status 20 and 00 so that they can be seen before invoices are run.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Shipment Status Change from 00 to 20

Daily we have somebody looking to see if there are any shipments in status
00 and changing them to 20 before we invoice. There aren't commonly shipments that need to be changed and the person doing it isn't doing any verification before the manual update.



Are there any issues we should be considering before we put an automated process prior to invoicing to eliminate this manual effort? We would simple do an update to the MBKJREP and MBDHREP tables to set status 00 orders to 20 and then run our invoice process.



Thanks in advance for feedback,

Marc
