Understanding Batch Printing

After you enter orders, you can print them to review the orders and then send them to the appropriate suppliers. The system prints the orders in the language that is specified for the supplier in the supplier master table.

You can also print orders to a work file, which enables you to customize the report. Before you customize a report, you must retrieve the appropriate address information and attachments or notes. The Purchase Order Print Output program (R43501) is a starting point for the customized report. You can either use it as an example of how to write the custom report in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system 55 or you can modify R43501 to fit your requirements. The Purchase Order Print program (R43500) calls the R43501 program via the processing options.

You cannot print orders that are on hold or any order line with a Last Status Code of 980 (canceled in entry). Orders with all other statuses print from P4310 unless designated in the R43500 data selection criteria.

You can print orders by batch so you can review the orders and then send them to the appropriate suppliers.

Use the processing options to specify which information prints on orders. You can have the system print:

  • Taxes.

  • Open item information only.

  • Supplier item numbers.

  • Foreign and domestic currencies.

  • Exchange rates (for foreign currency users).

  • Messages.

  • Supplier classification codes.

  • Additional properties.

  • Category codes.

  • Service units.

    If you selected to use service units, the system prints the Service Quantity and Service UoM fields instead of the Quantity Ordered and Tr. UoM fields. The system prints service unit information for both purchase order and multiple account distribution lines.

The system can automatically print adjustments on the report if you set the Price Picklist field to print prices and adjustments when you define the purchasing instructions.

Note: If you have selected the Advanced Contract Billing Used option in the Service Billing Constants program (P48091), then the system prints contract-related fields on the subcontract orders.
