CA_ORDER_LINES

Create sales order lines from the associated contract lines.

Contract lines with valid sales order products can be passed into a sales order in PeopleSoft Order Management. In addition, new orders can be created or lines can be added to existing orders. If the Product Use field displays General Use, then the product can be used on both contract lines and sales orders. If the value in the Product Use field is Contracts only, the system does not enable you to pass the contract line into the sales order.

Note: Data cannot be synchronized between PeopleSoft Contracts and PeopleSoft Order Management. Therefore, if you make a change to the contract or order in one application, you must manually make the change in the other application to synchronize the contract and the order.

Use the Sales Order page (CA_ORDER_LINES) to create sales order lines from the associated contract lines.

Navigation:

  • Customer Contracts > Create and Amend > Contract Sales Orders

  • Select Sales Order in the Go To drop-down list box on any page in the contract component.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Sales Order page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.
