Understanding the Sales Update Program

To maintain the most accurate sales information, you can update the records daily in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales Order Management system. Run a version of the Sales Update program (R42800) each day to maintain the most accurate sales information. The system updates the records in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales Order Management system and the records in the other systems with which it interacts, such as the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management systems. After you run the program, you can review and post sales transactions and review sales reports.

Note:

Because of the number of transactions that occur when you run the R42800 program, you should run the program in proof mode first to detect and correct any errors before you run it in final mode.

During sales update, the system writes warning messages and error messages for you to review. You can improve the performance of the system if you set the processing option to write error messages only.

Important: Oracle strongly recommends that you run the sales update when no one is on the system. The system does not lock records. Therefore, if a sales order record is accessed during a sales update, the record might not process correctly.
