Copy Orders

The Copy Orders form lets you select an existing order, or a range of orders, on which to base a new order. The details from the existing orders, including item numbers, quantities ordered, pricing, and other information, appear as defaults for the new order.

You can select the details you want to use in the new order, and you can change the price list, location, ship date, quantity ordered, unit of measure, and unit price for any detail line.

Note:

• You cannot add new detail lines to an order.

• You cannot create a new order with items that required price approval on an original order. If any item on an original order required price approval during processing, Order Entry displays an error message when you click the Go button.

• Price checks are set in Inventory Control price lists for particular items, price lists, and Sage ERP Accpac user IDs.

• If you change item prices after copying items, the Price Approval field displays "Yes" if price checks are in effect for the item, and the price you enter is outside the boundaries allowed.

• You cannot select different item codes for the detail lines.

• If you are copying job-related orders:

• You cannot change the contract, project, or category.

• You cannot create a job-related order from a job-related quote.

• You cannot copy details from other order types to a quote if there are open job details. Normally, to create new job-related quotes, you set up a template quote and copy it each time you create a quote.

You can:

• Decide whether to copy or not copy a detail line.

• Change the location, quantity, and price for an item/miscellaneous charge.
