SECTION
7.2.1.5W.7 – EXPORT BY DAY
USAGE: To create summarize by delivery area
(other-key-no1) and assign deliveries to a day, so that a batch can be assigned
a reasonable delivery schedule. The export can be to ASCII.
DISCUSSION: This program scans for all Orders in a Batch and
dissects them for stock codes and components. It then asks you to dissect the
information.
When you choose this report, the screen will appear
as follows:
The fields available are:
WHICH BATCH NUMBER Choose a Batch number to process. You must already know which
Batch you are working on, before you enter the program.
LIMIT EXPORT TO
UNCOMPLETED LINES ON UNCOMPLETED ORDERS You can choose
to limit the export to just orders that have not been completed.
When you have chosen the above options, HiFinance
will scan through the orders file, sort the information and display the
following screen:
This screen displays each delivery run with its
order value. Here you assign a day to each delivery run. This allows you to
spread out the value over the whole week, thus improving cash flow.
When you have assigned a day to each delivery run,
press <F10> to continue and the screen
will change to the following:
This screen allows you to assign the orders at a
much finer level. The day totals are displayed at the bottom of the screen so
that you can see exactly how much, in dollar terms, is to be delivered on each
day.
When you have completed your entries, press <F10>. HiFinance will then create a file called assembly.csv and place it in your data directory. This file will
detail all the information required for exporting to a spreadsheet and
scheduling the transport vehicles.
