- Maintain Auto-charge Constraints
Processing Dialog
From the "Maintenance" menu take the "Work With Task Codes" option. To set up auto-charge constraints, place the “Constraint" option next to the task and press the < Enter > key. The following screen will appear.
The Document Type specifies whether the constraint applies to the inbound or outbound processing of the order. Place "I" for inbound receipt auto charge or an "O" for an auto charge on the outbound shipment of the product. This should correspond to the "I" or "O" used to flag the task as an auto-charge during task setup.
The Task Code will be displayed for the constraint chosen. A storer number will also be displayed if the task was storer specific.
The Constraint Field defines the type of constraint applied. It identifies a field on the inbound or outbound header that will be compared to the constraint value to determine whether to levy the charge. The following table lists the constraints that are available for inbound and outbound shipments.
| Constraint Field | Description |
|---|---|
| OHSHPT | Shipment Type |
| OHHQTY | Total Order Quantity |
| OHFCOV | Freight Coverage Code |
| OHEDIF | Order Was Received Via EDI |
| OHF856 | An ASN is Required |
| OHF128 | UCC128 Labeling is Required |
| IHRCPT | Receipt Type |
| IHLDTY | Load Type |
| IHRTRN | Customer Return |
| IHEDIF | ASN Received Via EDI |
The Relationship Field determines what criteria must be met for the charge to be levied. Possible values are: EQ - Equal to, NE - Not Equal to, LE - Less than or equal to, LT - Less Than, GE - Greater than or equal to, and GT - Greater Than.
The Constraint Value is used to specify exactly which shipments meet the criteria to have the Auto-charge applied. The Constraint Value is a fixed amount that determines whether the charge is applied. The Relationship Field above will rely on this fixed amount to determine if the Auto-charge applies.
The Status Code is either "AC" for active or "IN" for inactive. Only active constraints are applied to the invoice. After you complete entry of the constraint, press the < Enter > key to return to the "Work With Task Codes" panel. The constraint will be considered when the next inbound/outbound shipment occurs.
