Option 4Backorder Form

This function allows you to print backorders for records in the Sales Orders file that contain backordered items. These forms are printed on either standard 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper or special preprinted forms, depending on the entry in the Parameters file. Although the heading on the backorder form reads “Sales Order,” backorder forms include a revision number that is appended to the original order number. For example, Order 556711 would be revised to appear as:

Order 556711 - 02

If you select this program, the system sets the BO Printed? field on the Sales Orders header record to ‘Y.’

A sample Backorder form is shown below:
