Clearing Customer Sold To Status (MCST)

Purpose: When you delete a customer from a merge/purge at the Work with Source Customers Screen, the system flags the customer with a Status of M. Once flagged with this status, a customer is not included the next time you generate a merge/purge list. Use the Clear Customer Sold To Status menu option to clear a Status of M for all records in the Customer file, so they will be eligible for subsequent merge/purge list generation.

Note:

• The Status field is not displayed on a screen.

• This menu option does not clear other values in the Status field.

For more information: See Working with Merge/Purge Sold-to Names (MMCS) for background.

Confirm Clear of Customer Status Window

How to display this window: Enter MCST in the Fast path field at the top of any menu, or select Clear Customer Sold To Status from a menu.

Completing this window: Click OK to clear each setting of M in the Status field of the Customer Sold To file for your company. The system resets the Status field from M to blank, and the customer is eligible to be selected the next time you generate a merge/purge list as described under Submit Generation Window (Generating a List).
