  • S - Update Mode

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicOrder Capture Access

You can create or view orders and quotes using various queues.

Direct Navigation

A CSR can access Order Capture directly by selecting Orders and Quotes on the PeopleSoft CRM menu. From within Orders and Quotes, the main options are:

From PeopleSoft Sales

Sales representatives can navigate to quote or order capture from the Products section of the Leads or Opportunities page in PeopleSoft Sales. They can specify a product and then navigate directly to the Entry Form within Order Capture. Customer and product information relevant to Order Capture then pre-populates from the lead or opportunity to the corresponding order and quote entry fields.

From the 360-Degree View

The 360-degree view of the customer also allows for order and quote entry. CSRs can select the Order/Quote value from the Add Transaction field in Interaction Manager, which takes them directly to the Add a New Order or Quote Capture page in Order Capture. Known values from the 360-degree view pre-populate the main order entry page.

CSRs can also view recent orders and quotes from their workspaces in Interaction Manager. CSRs see each of the following, by default:

CSRs can navigate to an existing quote or order by using a link on the order ID or quote ID.

From CTI Integration

Order Capture integrates with PeopleSoft CTI capabilities. A customer can enter an order ID by using the telephone, and a successful match launches order status for that order ID.

Additional Access

Order Capture functionality is also accessible from:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicCorrespondence Generation

Order Capture generates correspondence automatically and manually:

Upon order or quote submission, Order Capture sends automatic email based on the MCF Type setup for Order Confirmation, Quote Confirmation and Order change. A related object is created for each automatic acknowledgement of a correspondence. This appears on the Related Actions tab for the order or quote. Related actions are not created for manual correspondence.

For manual notifications, the CSR clicks the button to access a Create Correspondence page where she can send text messages to pre-populated recipients through different communication channels, either email or print. Order Capture delivers two templates that can be used when a correspondence is sent:

You can add attachments to the text message and you can also schedule its exact delivery. After a correspondence is sent, the system automatically creates an interaction on the 360-Degree View for the associated contact.

Note. Before creating a correspondence, make sure that a contact is available on the entry form. The system pre-populates the Recipients field of the correspondence request with the contact defined for the order.

The following table summarizes the possible correspondence activity for Order Capture:

Template Name

This section provides an overview of personalization and discusses how to:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Personalization

You can personalize defaults to make your experience with Order Capture as efficient and as user-friendly as possible. PeopleSoft provides a Personalizations feature that enables you to change the defaults for the most commonly used functions within Order Capture.

Note. Order Capture also delivers powerful Workbench functionality whereby you create application class sets that modify Order Capture settings to best suit your business processes.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicChanging the Default Entry Form Values

Access the Option Category: General Options page.

Personalizations

View the Default Value or Override the Default Value for any of the Personalization Options specified below:

Product, Units, Quantity Order

Choose a preferred sequence for using the Add Product(s) functionality on the main Entry Form. This allows you to change how you enter multiple products at one time.

Product Entry Option

Specify whether you want Order Capture to search by Product Description First or Product ID First. Use this to improve performance by setting the value you normally use to search for products.

Product Search Option

Specify whether you want Order Capture to search by finding an exact match first or to show all possible results. Use this to improve performance.

Product Separator

Identify a product line separator. The Add Product(s) field on the Entry Form has powerful processing functionality contained within it. It allows for the insertion of a special character to divide product lines. For example, you can define this as a colon or semicolon, and then during order entry, you could enter two separate sets of product information.

Note. PeopleSoft system-delivered data specifies a semicolon.

UOM/Qty Separator (Unit of Measure/Order Quantity)

Identify a UOM/Qty separator. The Add Product(s) field on the Entry Form allows for the insertion of a special character to divide information for multiple product lines. For example, you could add two cases of product 10003 by entering 10003:2:cs. This would then populate an order line with two cases of product 10003, and would save you time.

Note. PeopleSoft system-delivered data specifies a colon.

Order Capture Business Unit

Specify your default business unit. If you regularly use a particular business unit, then this setting saves time during order and quote entry.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicConfiguring Search Criteria

Order Capture searches are quite extensive and enable you to find existing orders or quotes in a variety of ways. You can use multiple search criteria to narrow your search for existing orders or quotes. Once you identify the criteria by which you most often search for orders and quotes, you can personalize the Order Capture search pages and save that personalization. The next time that your search page launches, you will work from the personalized search page that you have created.

Note. If there is more than one result for a search, the results can be distinguished by different criteria, including Customer, Date Created, Status, and Source.

Order Details

This section appears on the Order - Entry Form page and is similar to the Quote Details section on the Quote - Entry Form page.

These fields are applicable to both orders and quotes:

Note. Some of the fields may not show depending on template settings and additional fields may show based on the template or the product added to the order such as a service or a subscription.

Business Unit

Select a business unit to use for this order or quote.

Based on the tableset control setup, this field may appear as a read only field with one designated business unit, or a drop down list box where users can select a business unit from the list for the order or quote. The system locates the default business unit (by taking the Order Capture unit that is specified on the User Preferences page for the user who logged on, or by identifying the default business unit that is specified in the Order Capture Definition component if the former is unavailable). If more than one business unit in the system have their RO_01 (order capture setup tables) record group associated with the same setID as the default business unit, all these business units are then listed in this field. Otherwise, only the default business unit appears in this field and it is not editable.

See Working with Business Units and TableSet Controls.

Status

Displays the status of the order or quote.

The most common statuses are:

  • Open: the order is still being created.

  • Submitted: the order has been submitted.

  • On Hold: there was a problem when the order was submitted.

  • In Fulfillment: the order is being processed.

  • Complete: the order is finished (fulfilled).

Promotion

Select a code that uniquely identifies the promotional offer, if applicable. Products assigned to this promotion will then display a promotional price, rather than their regular price.

Note. This field involves integration to PeopleSoft Marketing, which relies upon the pricing engine to establish promotional pricing. Under certain circumstances, this field may automatically populate, for instance when an AAF Action that uses a Marketing Wave and Advisor is used to add a product to the order.

See Creating Campaigns and Activities.

See PeopleSoft Enterprise CRM Enterprise Pricer 9 PeopleBook.

Priority

Priorities appear by default from the Order Capture Business Unit. You can change the priority for the order or quote to Urgent, High, Medium, or Low.

Note. There is no extra processing logic associated with priorities. Priorities may be changed from the Setup Workbench.

Fulfill By

The date can be a left blank or set to a future date. A consumer may want to create a future dated order which is an order that would be queued until the date when the order should be fulfilled. The Fulfill By date will automatically be populated by the order upon submittal if the not filled in.

The Fulfill By date should not be in the past. The order will go on hold. This is not the date when the order was received; this is the date you want the order to be fulfilled.

Earliest Fulfill By

This field will appear if any of the products on the order has a Lead Time. This field indicates the earliest date the order can be fulfilled.

Show Details or Hide Details

Click to view or hide additional details about the order.

Description

Describe the order.

Source

Identify the source of the order or quote as either CTI, Fax, Phone, Self Service, or Supply Chain.

Note. Source types may be changed in the Setup Workbench.

Accepted

Usually defaulted to the date the order was entered, but can be postdated. For example, you may want to postdate the order because it was faxed prior to today's date.

This date can be in the past.

Currency

Select the currency to use for the order or quote. This defaults based on the business unit.

Total Price

Indicates the total price of the order as it stands with the currently added products and the discounts applied.

Quote Details

This section appears on the Quote - Entry Form page and is similar to the Order Details section on the Order - Entry Form page. Page elements that appear in both the Quote Details and Order Details sections are described above in the Order Details section of this PeopleBook.

Order Capture displays these additional page elements for quotes:

Quote Date

This date can be a past, present, or future date.

Due Date

Enter the date due for the quote. Due Date can be used if the customer has requested pricing information by a certain date, or if the quote is part of a request for quote (RFQ) that is due by a certain time. A default date may populate this field if specified during business unit setup.

Expire Date

Enter the expiration date for the quote. A default date may populate this field if specified during business unit setup.

Revision

Displays the total number of times the quote has been revised.

Confidence Level %

Order Capture provides this field so that PeopleSoft Sales can populate its relevant data in the quote. The value amount is transferred from an opportunity if populated on the opportunity.

Line Summary: Products Tab

You can add, remove products, access a catalog, or launch PeopleSoft Advisor to identify a product that suits your customer's specifications. When you create a new quote or order, Order Capture displays the Add Products, Search or Browse Catalog, and Get Recommendations field elements, which we discuss in this section. After you enter a product, Order Capture displays additional fields that also appear on the Order - Line Details page, which we discuss in the Viewing or Modifying Line Details section of this PeopleBook.

See Viewing or Modifying Line Details.

Add Product(s)

Enter the Product ID or a description to search for a product, service, or product package. The system retrieves all the products that you have requested and enters each product on a new line. You can enter more than one product at a time by separating the product IDs or descriptions with semicolons. Be sure to leave no spaces between the IDs or descriptions. This field contains processing logic so that you do not need to enter exact information. Partial matches retrieve the Product Search Results Page, which lists all of the closest matches.

Note. This field is also equipped with Personalization capability. A CSR's preferences for product selection can be configured so that a variety of input techniques can be used.

Search or Browse Catalog

Click to view catalogs that are associated with this business unit. You can make selections from available catalogs and compare products or services. You can then add product selections directly to the order form.

Get Recommendations

Click to access PeopleSoft Advisor. PeopleSoft Advisor presents you with a question and answer dialog session, where your answers to specific questions will lead to a list of recommendations.

Note. PeopleSoft Advisor is associated to a data model, so that it can retrieve products. In this case the PeopleSoft CRM product data model, which includes automatic filtering based on the catalog definitions, is the data model that PeopleSoft Advisor uses.

After you enter or select a product, Order Capture may display the following buttons:

Click the Upsell button to view an upsell or cross-sell opportunity. The upsell alert appears on the order line if there is an upsell or cross-sell opportunity associated with the product.

Configure Product

Click to launch the product PeopleSoft Sales Configurator. When the product is configured, the background button color becomes light blue.

See PeopleSoft Enterprise Advanced Configurator 9 PeopleBook.

Get Product Promotions

Select to access the Products Promotions page to view the promotions that are defined in Marketing for the customer.

If the customer only qualifies for one offer, then the order is populated with that offer code. If the customer qualifies for multiple offers, the offer codes are available in a pull-down in the Order so that the user can select the appropriate one.

Additional links are displayed for communications products.

See Using Order Capture and Service Management in the Communications Industry.

Line Summary: Pricing Adjustments

Select the Pricing Adjustments tab to enter discounts or surcharges for the product.

Discount

A calculated amount of list price minus the unit price is calculated here for quick reference.

If an activity is direct/telemarketing with an Order Capture integration, the Offer/Promotion Code of the activity will default to both the Order Details Promotion Code and the Line Detail Pricing Adjustment Promotion Code.

If you have a promotion code, you must use capture level pricing instead of line level pricing.

Note. This field differs from the field on the Header only in that you can specify a product promotion for a specific line.

Adjustment

Enter the amount of the adjustment you want to apply to this order line. You can choose to enter either a percentage discount or an actual currency discount. Select Percent or Amount in the next field to decide whether the number you enter here will be a percentage of the price, or a static currency adjustment.

The Lines for this Destination section shows all products tied to the shipment. You can split a shipment so that certain lines are:

  • Shipped to a different address.

  • Shipped using a different shipping method.

  • Assigned to a different site.

  • Assigned a different requested date.

If a product is defined in the product data model as requiring configurable attributes, an icon appears at the point of order entry. This navigates the user through attribute capture. This icon also appears on this page along with the product name. You can also view the attribute and attribute values captured for the order.

Note. You can control the level of detail that displays here. To control display options, you can navigate to Schemas-Display options in the Configurator setup.

See Using Order Capture and Service Management in the Communications Industry.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Holds

Hold validations fire automatically as soon as you submit an order or quote. You can access the Holds page to see if an order has been put on hold.

Hold Status

Current status of the hold. This is a display-only field for regular users, such as most customer service contacts. However, users with manager-level permissions can select one of the following statuses:

  • Requires Action: This selection indicates that action needs to happen. The system defaults to this status when the hold is created.

  • In Process: This selection indicates that the hold still needs to be addressed and some action is taking place in relation to the hold.

  • Override Hold: Select to ignore the hold and pass it. For example, you have a minimum price violation but are willing to allow the lower price for this order or quote. When this status is set, the system will no longer check the hold condition. When a hold is overridden, a note and reason can be assigned explaining why the hold was overridden.

  • Passed: This indicates that the hold has passed. The CSR can manually set this status, or the system will set this status when the order or quote has been submitted, and the condition has passed. When this status is set, the system will still check the hold condition, and set to Requires Action if the condition fails.

    Note. A manager with the correct set of permissions can override the hold by placing the hold in Override Hold status and resubmitting the order or quote.

Status Date

Indicates the date the Hold status last changed.

Failed Value

This is the value that is causing the Hold Reason.

Pass Value

This is the value that is required to remove the hold.

Click to jump to parent topicMaintaining Orders

This section provides an overview of order maintenance.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Order Maintenance

Order maintenance and quote revisioning are triggered by the same toolbar button. This button allows changes to order data based upon configurable rules defined in the Capture Type Workbench. These rules determine the status of the order, and order lines, and will allow changes to certain data elements based upon this status.

To understand order maintenance, consider both the header statuses and the line statuses that are delivered out of the box, and how they map to the PeopleSoft Supply Chain Management fulfillment system. An order for example cannot be changed if has been shipped, or if the fulfillment system has not acknowledged its existence. In this overview section are two tables: one explains Order Capture header statuses and the second shows how line statuses in CRM map to PeopleSoft Supply Chain Management.

Header Statuses

Here are the delivered header statuses that can be displayed on the Entry Form:

Header Status

Description

2000 (In Fulfillment)

The order is in the process of fulfillment. Quotes cannot have a status of In Process since quotes are not part of fulfillment.

9000 (Hold)

There is an open hold on the order, based on hold conditions.

3500 (Fulfillment Hold)

The Fulfillment system has placed a hold on the order.

1500 (Partial Hold)

The Fulfillment system has placed a hold on some products on the order.

6000 (Complete)

The order has gone through the fulfillment process. It has been shipped, or installed depending upon whether it is a tangible product or a service.

1 (Canceled)

The order or quote has been canceled and no further action on this order or quote is necessary.

950 (Queued)

The order or quote has been created for a future date and is queued for later automatic submittal.

5000 (Expired)

The quote date has passed so the quote has expired.

500 (New)

The order or quote is new and has not been submitted.

1000 (Submitted)

The order or quote has been submitted for processing.

See Defining Header Statuses.

Allowable Maintenance

For the purposes of an integration with PeopleSoft Supply Chain Management, Order Capture allows you to maintain orders where the header status is at least Submitted (1000) and not yet Complete (6000). Order Capture allows order maintenance out of the box, where PeopleSoft Supply Chain Management is the fulfillment system under the following conditions:

Since an order with header status of Queued has not yet been submitted to back end processing, it is queued for later automatic submittal, a Queued order can be maintained. No change order is required if a Queued order is maintained, since no order has yet been sent to the fulfillment system.

Order Capture delivers integration points that support a realtime check into inventory to determine if the changes can be made based on the fulfillment status of the order. Additionally, all of the necessary integration points are delivered to pass the changed data to fulfillment in order to process the change request.

See Understanding Fulfillment.

You can add products to an order or quote, change an order or quote, change the dates for a quote, and so on. With related actions, the system keeps a record of and links to the original quote or order, so that you can maintain a history of how the quote or order progressed. Both the revisioned quote and the original quote may be used and both remain in open status. This allows you to offer different revisions of the products and pricing to your customers, and allows the CSR (or sales representative) to order from either of the quotes. Only the revisioned order can be used once changes have been made to the order.

When order maintenance is complete, various order capture pages reflect the change activity. Upon order submission, not only is a new business project fired, the Related Actions page updated, but the History page is also updated to track those changes.

Note. Changes to a quote are through the quote revisioning process. Creating a quote revision copies the instance of the quote to a new quote, and increments the revision number. This enables you to modify the quote as required.
