Stan was a long-term MAPICS advocate and just a great guy. I know many on this board knew him. Rest in peace Stan.

I selected comments because 1) they took less space on the form, and 2) they were at the beginning of the document (page 1), much preferred by my customers. Note: it also makes sense to load the 1st tracking number in the actual field provided, as Eric Wolf mentioned, UPS and FedEx allow you to branch to other "boxes" in the shipment from there.

Yes, the email address is good and I would appreciate the PDF. I think that should be all I will need. Thank you! The version is R7.8. Is there any advantage to use special charges over comments then? I think the client may want the tracking numbers at the end of the invoice, I will have to double-check now. Special charges was the direction I got but also that they were used like "comments" because of the 0 cost and charge. Appreciate your help!

I found it, and can send you that program as a PDF to your varsitynet.com address if that's a good address (I generally don't send to those addresses without permission/request). After I got this email, I realized that's not what you wanted, sorry. However, for the special charge stuff, just put them out as though you were issuing a regular special charge line for the invoice, with a zero cost and charge. I would think that approach would be more inconvenient - the tracking#s will be at the end of the invoice, and will take more space on the printed form (or emailed form) than using comments. Since I don't have my enhancement library readily available anymore (the company no longer exists, all I have is a backup tape), sometimes it takes me a while to get actual code. I don't have a full time system available anymore - I'm currently doing consulting (a lot of non-XA stuff, unfortunately) and go where the winds of chance and opportunity take me. :) The program I have works for everything from R6.0 through R7.8 - I have not had the opportunity to test it on R9, but I imagine it will work fine if you are on that.

I haven't been able to get your document Dale. Were you able to locate it? I was told that all I had to do was write a OSAAREP record for each tracking number as special charges with a zero charge. Does each record have to have it's own off-ship group id and off-ship number? We are writing an '02' off ship type to ship confirm the pick list. Then I need to write the tracking number records. I think your solution for the model# & VIN is what I'm looking for.

I had the requirement/request from my customers to list them all on the invoice. BTW - what I put in the special charge lines were the model# and VIN of the campers, type 0, no charge lines. That was a requirement from the finance companies. I didn't put the tracking numbers in the special charge lines - they were in the comments. But it would be much easier to put the tracking numbers in special charge lines than comments - the problem would be the invoices would be LONG! But it'd work...

Fedex uses a master to link to all others in a "n of n" scenario. I believe UPS does this as well. These masters point to all the others when following the parcels. > > Eric > > > Eric Wolf > XA Business Analyst > (818) 486-5678 > > On May 6, 2011, at 1:30 PM, Dale Gindlesperger <Dale_Gindlesperger-/[email protected]> wrote: > >> The link is dead (if it's to my web site) because the company (Fleetwood Folding Trailers) no longer exists. I'm on the road this weekend, but if no one responds by Monday, I'll see if I still have the document on my home office PC. I do recall that adding comments isn't as straightforward as I thought it would be. There is also a tracking number field you can use, but it's limited to one tracking number. I used the comments because we frequently had multiple packages with multiple tracking numbers.... And that was the only way I could show multiple tracking numbers for a single shipment/invoice. >> >> Dale >> >> Sent from my iPhone, sorry about the typos! >> >> On May 6, 2011, at 3:55 PM, "T Sidel" <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> I am looking for information on how to create Offline shipping special >>> charge records that will be interpreted as comments on the order. >>> Particularly multiple tracking numbers.
