This feature gives the ability to print a warning message on the Sales Order Import Pre-Interface List or Interface List if the Order Total Sales Amount is greater than a certain value or if the Order Total Weight is greater than a certain value.  This could be used in the following circumstances:

(1)    If the order total weight is greater than a certain value, then it should be shipped using a different shipping method than the default.  It is difficult to calculate the total weight of the order and change the ship via through the EDI software, so Sales Order Import will check for this condition.  If the total weight is greater than a certain value, a warning message will be printed and the order ship via can be changed manually after the sales order is imported.

(2)    Some customers may negotiate special deals.  For example, sales orders greater than $1,000 would ship for free.  Free freight is determined by the Order Freight Pay Code.  Again, it is difficult to determine the sales order amount in the EDI software and Sales Order Import can check for this condition.  When the order amount is greater than $1,000, a warning message will print and the Freight Pay Code can be changed after the order has been imported.

To enable this feature, two new fields have been added to the the customer EDI Profile.  This can be accessed by going to Customer File Maintenance, Special Function, and EDI Profile Maintenance screen 5. 

                4. SO Import – Warn if Order Total Sales Amt >= ?

                5. SO Import – Warning if Order Total Weight >= ?

The default value is zero, which means this feature is not enabled.  If this value is not zero, then COP Sales Order Import will check if the total sales amount or total weight is greater than the value specified.  If yes, a warning message will print at the end of the order stating: 

“Order Total Sales Amount >= 9,999,999” 

or 

“Order Total Weight >= 999,999”
