RE: Making a Ship Note based on more than one Sales Order

Mike,
        We have the same need here, we use JBA Job Management module for it.
Job Management has a concept of Subjobs wherein every subjob is an Advanced
order entry order. We use Job Management pick note option so that we get one
pick note for all subjobs and Use Invoice/Asset generation under job
management that combines all subjobs together and generate one invoice. But
to make it work the way we wanted we had to heavily modify JBA Job
Management module.
Let me know if you have Job Management module in JBA and I can give you more
suggestions as to how you can achieve it.

        Subject:        Making a Ship Note based on more than one Sales
Order

        We are currently implementing JBA and I don't have a lot of
experience with it.   Please accept my apologies if this question is too
basic...
         
        We have a customer who demands that we ship against multiple orders
using only 1 packing slip and 1 invoice.  (I.e.*only* 1 packing slip and 1
invoice per Bill of Lading)
         
        Currently the way we have (manually) done this in the past is to use
MS Excel and make the packing list with a matrix at the bottom showing the
part #, qty, and PO # that the qty applies to.  For example:
         
        *** Outstanding PO's:
        Part Num        PO    Qty
        P100               P1      100
        P100                P2        50 
        P200                P2        75
         
        *** Packing List & Invoice
        Part Num     Qty
        P100            150
        P200            75
        (The Outstanding PO table shown above would be listed at the bottom
of this packing list.)
         
        If we would ship the exact qty shown above with JBA it would be
under 2 ship notes, because we have to start with the sales order.   We
could use daily invoice consolidation to roll it up, but that assumes we
only have 1 truck per day, otherwise we would violate their 'one shipment,
one invoice' policy.
         
        If anyone has any tips on how to do this, I would really appreciate
it.
         
        Thanks in advance,
