Placing Items on the Order
Click the Item Detail Tab.
The Item Detail tab displays either a laundry list (if a laundry list is specified for this customer) or the cursor moves to the Item Number box (if a laundry list is not specified for this customer).
Note: If a laundry list is set up for this customer, the Laundry List dialog box opens. To add laundry list items, click the Qty box for each item to place on the order, and specify the quantity for that item. When you have specified quantities for every item from the laundry list to place on the order, click Done. Every item from the laundry list for which you specified a quantity now is a line item on the order. For more details, see Selecting Laundry List Items. (If the customer uses a laundry list, you can switch back and forth between the laundry list and the Item Query dialog box to place items on the order.)
With the cursor in the Item Number box, select the item to place on the order. You can select an item by item number, company, description, or use the Item Query dialog box to view the items in your database. If you need instructions, see Selecting an Item in Order Entry.
Notes: If you select an incorrect item, simply select a different item. The previous item you selected is automatically removed. Until you click Accept, the item is not added to the order. Therefore, it is not necessary to change or delete an item until you place the item on the order. If you set up the item with remarks in the Item window and set the Display Item Remarks field in the (LG3) screen to Y, the system displays the remarks when you select the item.
After you select an item to place on the order, the cursor moves to the Order box. Press Tab to accept the quantity of one, or enter the quantity of this item to place on the order.
When the cursor moves to the Sell $ box, you have the opportunity to make any necessary pricing changes. For details, see Specifying Item Quantities and Prices.
When you are ready to place the item on the order, click Accept. When you place the first item on the order, the pick ticket is assigned an order number, which displays in the Order # box in the upper right-hand corner of the window. The number of line items, the gross profit percentage, and the order's subtotal are shown in the lower right-hand corner of the window. These amounts are continuously updated as you place additional items on the order.
Continue to place as many items on the order as necessary. When you finish, end the order. For details, go to Ending an Order.
