This chapter contains the following topics:
This section provides an overview of how to manage orders, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to set processing options for Self Service - Sales Order Inquiry (P4210SS).
To place an order in a standard operating environment, the customers are usually assisted by personnel who are familiar with the system as well as with the process requirements. When you create a sales environment on the web, you must enable the customers to select items from the inventory and create sales orders based on their selection.
When the customers enter orders using Customer Self Service, the system generates orders based on the customer information that is identified during login and the products that the customers select to add to an order. At any time, the customers can cancel the order or place the order. The system does not create the order until the order is accepted. If Customer Self Service is unexpectedly disconnected, the system holds the customer's order until the customer accesses self service again. The system prompts the customer to review and continue processing the interrupted order, or delete it.
When the customers enter sales orders on the web, they can move freely between the menu applications. The system generates an order based on the customer information that is identified during login and the products that you select to add to an order.
As the customers add items to their sales orders, they can review and total the order and apply the appropriate taxes. Additionally, the customers can specify an alternate carrier or edit order information by accessing the appropriate options on the Row and Form menus. Customers can cancel the order or place the order. The system does not create the order until they accept the order.
Customers can also use self service to review information for orders, including ship-to addresses, shipments, online invoices, and accounts. The customer might receive an alert or a message that prompts the customer to review the information, or the customer might want to review order information from the supplier's system. The customer can review and modify limited order information, such as quantity requested, requested date, and description.
The system uses the primary unit of measure from the Item Master. The system displays the unit price in the currency that is identified for the customer in the Address Book program (P01012). The system retrieves item information, such as line type, from the F4102 or F4101 table.
Each application provides an option to add items to a user's order. If they do not know the item number, the customers can click the visual assist to access the Search by Keyword form to find it.
Since order entry, inquiry, and acceptance are part of Sales Order Entry program (P4210), set these processing options for creating Customer Self Service sales orders:
You must activate Customer Self Service.
You can activate the option Display before Accept so that the customers can review order totals, including taxes, before the system creates records in the F4201 and F4211 tables. If you use taxed prices, the system displays the domestic or foreign taxed prices fields as read-only on the Order Acceptance form.

Important: Do not use online commitments in the version of the Sales Order Entry program (P4210) used for Customer Self Service. Activate the Store and Forward processing option for either Full or Partial Edit. |
The enterprise (the company that uses JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software) is responsible for setting the processing options for the Self Service - Sales Order Inquiry program (P4210SS). The processing options control:
The default sort options for sales orders.
The format of the information.
For example, the enterprise might specify that header information be followed by detail information.
The types of sales orders that customers can review.
The versions that the Self Service - Sales Order Inquiry program uses.
If you use the taxed prices and select Manage Orders in the CSS Tasks list, the system accesses the Self Service – Sales Order Inquiry program. The system displays the following read-only fields on the View Order Detail form and View Item Detail form:
Use Taxed Prices
If the sales order has taxed prices, the system selects this check box.
Taxed Unit Price
If the sales order is a foreign order, the system displays the foreign amounts in this field.
Unit Tax Amount
If the sales order is a foreign order, the system displays the foreign amounts in this field.
Taxed Extended Price
If the sales order is a foreign order, the system displays the foreign amounts in this field.
Extended Tax Amount
If the sales order is a foreign order, the system displays the foreign amounts in this field.
Since order entry, inquiry, and acceptance are part of the Sales Order Entry program (P4210), set these processing options for version ZJDE0010 to create orders on the web:
You must activate the Customer Self-Service Functionality option on the Process tab.
You can activate the Display before Accept Prompt option on the Process tab so that the customers can review order totals, including taxes, before the system creates records in the F4201 and F4211 tables.

This section provides an overview of recurring orders, lists prerequisites, and lists the forms used to manage recurring orders.
Recurring orders are templates that you use to enter information for orders that are always the same; creating recurring orders saves time. You can automatically generate an order weekly, monthly, or yearly.
You also can search for existing recurring orders and modify the recurring orders. For example, you can change sold to and ship to information, quantities, and unit prices.
If you use the taxed prices and select Add Recurring Orders in the CSS Tasks list, the system accesses the Recurring Orders program (P4004Z). If the Sales Taxed Prices Constant is selected in the System Constants program (P41001), then the system displays the Use Taxed Prices check box in the header of the Add Recurring Orders form. If you select the Use Taxed Prices check box, the system automatically calculates and displays the following read-only fields:
Taxed Unit Price
Taxed Extended Price
Unit Tax Amount
Extended Tax Amount
The system displays the same fields on the Manage Recurring Orders form and the Edit Recurring Order form.
Before you can use recurring orders, you must set up the processing options for the Recurring Orders program (P4004Z).
| Form Name | FormID | Navigation | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manage Recurring Orders | W4004ZB | From the Tasks portlet, select Manage Recurring Orders. | Ensure that the enterprise has activated the processing option for Customer Self Service functionality in the Recurring Orders program (P4004Z).
Review the information in the detail area for each order number and select the order for which you want to manage information. |
| Edit Recurring Order | W4004ZA | On the Manage Recurring Order form, click Edit Order. | Modify the information in the header area and detail area and click Save Order.
Note: You can also delete a line on the order or delete the entire order. |
This section provides an overview of blanket orders and lists the prerequisite and forms used to release blanket orders.
You can create sales orders for customers with blanket orders. You use the Sales Blanket Order Release program (P420111) to manually deduct item quantities from a blanket order. The system creates a sales order for the quantity that you specify.
The system consolidates order lines based on sold to, branch/plant, and currency code information. The order numbers that a user enters can be consolidated in the same way as the system-generated sales orders. For example, if you select multiple records to release and enter a new order number for the first record only, the system consolidates the orders.
If you are using the Customer Self Service version of the Sales Blanket Order Release program in the Customer Relationship Management system, you can partially release quantities from multiple blanket orders and from multiple lines on blanket orders provided that you have set the appropriate processing options. When the system creates the sales orders, you can review each sales order number that results. You can also cancel a single line that has been released (as opposed to having to cancel all of the lines that have been released).
If you use the taxed prices and select Release Blanket Orders in the CSS Tasks list, the system accesses the Sales Blanket Order Release program. The system retrieves the taxed prices from the original blanket order and displays the values in the following read-only fields on the Search and Release Blanket Orders form:
Taxed Unit Price
Unit Tax Amount
Taxed Extended Price
Foreign Taxed Extended Price
Extended Tax Amount
Foreign Extended Tax Amount
See "Entering Sales Orders with Taxed Prices" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Sales Order Management Implementation Guide.
Before you can use customer self service to release blanket orders, you must set up the processing options for the Sales Blanket Order Release program.
| Form Name | FormID | Navigation | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search and Release Blanket Orders | W420111B | From the Tasks portlet, select Release Blanket Orders. | Select the blanket order for which you want to release full or partial quantities. |
| Specify Release Details | W420111C | On the Search and Release Blanket Orders form, select the blanket order and click Specify Release Details. | Enter a new quantity in the Quantity to Release field. The system automatically populates the Quantity to Release field with a value of 1. If you do not want to release any quantity, enter 0.
Review and change the value in the Request Date field, if necessary, and then click Release to Sales Order to generate sales orders. Click Cancel to release no quantities. The system creates one or more sales orders based on the quantities that you have chosen to release. |
| Released Sales Order Confirmation | W420111D | On the Specify Release Details form, click Release to Sales Order. | Review the sales order numbers that the system created for the quantities that you released. |
