The Repost Active Sales Order program is a batch application that is used to resolve the commitment problem that arises during the sales update. This recipe explains the method of reposting sales orders, and also describes how the process Repost Active Sales Order works.
You should run the Customers Sales Update (R42800) program in Final Mode in order to run the Repost Sales Order program.
The Repost Active Sales Orders program (R42995) is used to recommit the upcoming sales orders and repost the active Sales Orders that not closed during the Sales Update process. When you recommit upcoming Sales Orders, the system checks the customer's Credit Limits for future sales orders, and also verifies the Hard-Commit items. The system also compares the Scheduled Pick Date in F4211 table with the current date, and adds this to the number of days—specified in the commitment days—that are set up in the Branch/Plant Constants program (P41001).
When the agreed Scheduled Pick Date of the item is equivalent to the Sales Order entry date plus the added number of commitment days, the system relieves the Future-Committed order. Once the recommit process is completed, the report can be printed with the sales order detailed lines, and will also include future-committed items.
