18.1 Updating Status Codes (ECS)
You use the Status Code Update program to quickly update the status codes for selected sales order lines or manage steps in the order process that are unique to your company.
You can use the Status Code Update program to:
-
View current status codes for multiple detail lines
-
Manually update the next status code for detail lines
You might want to update a line's next status code so the item passes through an additional step in the order process. For example, you might want certain types of orders to pass through a step of credit approval before load confirmation. You set up this step in the order activity rules and use the Status Code Update program to process these orders through the credit approval step.
You can also update a line's next status code so that an item bypasses an existing status code. You can only update next status codes to those allowed in the order activity rules.
