You can enter a sales order for a configured item using one of the following methods:
Set the processing option for the work order line type to create work orders or define the W line type in each configured item's branch/plant record. If you leave the processing option blank, the system supplies the line type from the branch/plant.
Verify that you have set the processing option to the appropriate sales order entry mode.

Topic | Description |
---|---|
Vocabulary Overrides | Vocabulary overrides enable you to change the text on forms and reports. On the Configured Item Specification form (V3294), you can use vocabulary overrides to change constants defined for rule processing components including variable name, string delimiter, and field name identifier.
See Vocabulary Overrides in the JD Edwards World Common Foundation Guide. |
Interbranch sales | You can enter a configured item sales order to fill demand from a warehouse other than from the one where the order is placed. However the following functions are not supported:
Interbranch orders allow a branch to receive the order but supply the item directly from another branch. These orders can support markups between the branches, without inventory passing through the branch that received the order. The system does not support interbranch sales orders for configured items or pricing (X) rules. See Work With Detail Information in the JD Edwards World Sales Order Management Guide. |
Preference profiles | Configuration Management supports most preference profiles. Preference profiles help you automate the sales order entry process. Use a preference profile to define information that is consistent for a customer, customer group, configured item, or configured item group. Preference profiles are not supported for multi-branch commitments.
See Work With Preferences in the JD Edwards World Sales Order Management Guide. |
Multi-currency | Pricing (X) rules are applied to foreign currency sales orders. The system processes price adjustments as a base currency amount and converts the amount to a different currency amount if necessary. |
Commitments | Soft commitments are added for a configured parent item with associated work orders. Component parts related to the configured parent are committed by the Process Work Orders program. |
Trade discounts | The Sales Order Management system does not support trade discounts for configured items. |
Additional order processing | For configured items, the Sales Order Management system does not support the following additional order processing:
|
Weight calculation | If you have defined a conversion factor for primary UOM to weight UOM in the Item Master, then the Sales Order Entry program calculates the weight of the component parts to determine the parent weight. This calculation affects the following processes in your business flow:
Base weight conversion to which component weights will be added must be defined at the parent configured item level. In addition, item conversions to the parent weight UOM must be defined for each component. If no item conversion is found, the program looks to the Standard UOM Conversion table. Components of a parent configured item that are also Stocking Type C items are included in the weight rollup to the parent. |

During sales order entry, the system checks the values that you enter against the cross-segment editing rules and configured item segments. The system verifies that you have not entered any values that violate the editing rules. If a segment value violates an editing rule, either a hard or a soft error message appears.
Working with error messages consists of the following tasks:
Working with hard error messages
Working with soft error messages
To work with hard error messages
To work with soft error messages
Do one of the following:
To change the segment value, return to Configured Item Specifications and select a different segment value.
To override the error message, choose the Accept Optional Message function.

You can review the configured text that you defined on Configured Item Segments. Configured text can include:
Configured parent item's part number
Segment number
Segment description
Segment value

After you have entered a sales order, you can change the following information:
Item | Description |
---|---|
Quantity | Changes are reflected in the sales order and work order. |
Segment value | Changes are reflected in the sales order and the work order. |
Pick date | The system recalculates work order start dates based on lead times. |
If you change the sales order after work has been started on the associated work order, the work order status will change, but the parts list and routing will not be affected. You can use constants to define the status beyond which changes will no longer affect the related work order. If the work order status is greater than or equal to the value set on Configurator Constants, the system will not reflect the changes on the work order.
Note:
Configuration Management supports multi-level backscheduling when you change the pick date on a sales order.On Sales Order Entry

You can enter a sales quote for a configured item and later convert the sales quote into a sales order.
Sales quotes are controlled by two Configuration Management constants. You must:
Specify the type of sales quote to use to prevent work orders from being generated for quotes.
Set up quote costing based on manufacturing net added costing.
You enter a sales quote the same way as you enter a sales order, except that the document type is automatically set for sales quotes.
