Import Order from External Database
This is used to import an order from an external database and create a BOL. You must first set up the external database import.
How To
If you have only one order to pull, then enter that order into the List of Orders box and then click the Get the Order(s) Listed button.
Pulling by Order Number Range
You may import a range of orders by specifying the range in the two fields in #1. These fields are expected to be numberic, or have a prefix followed by numerics. Examples of order numbers are:
ABC100 to ABC200. Valid, because the prefix of ABC is consistent and the number of digits is consistent.
00040 to 00100. Valid, because they are all digits and of the same length (5 characters).
B5 to B100. Invalid, because the number of digits is one on the first and three on the last.
Click the Get Orders by Range button to retrieve a list of orders found using this method. The order numbers will be filled into the List of Orders box. Click the Get the Order(s) Listed button to import the orders and create the BOLs.
Pulling by Alternate Field
If an alternate field query has been set up, then you may enter the value into the By Alternate Field box and then click the Get Orders by Alternate Field button. The order numbers will be filled into the List of Orders box. Click the Get the Order(s) Listed button to import the orders and create the BOLs.
Manually Entering Order Numbers
You may enter a list of order numbers directly into the List of Orders box. Click the Get the Order(s) Listed button to import the orders and create the BOLs.
Creating a Master BOL
Use the checkbox, "Also, create a master BOL from these orders," to create a master bill of lading for the orders in the list.
