[6.10] Order Acknowledgement Address Based on Purchasing Contact

Yahoo Archive
1
Just for clarification...
The address that prints on your sales order acknowledgement is NOT the
customer's "Sold To:" address shown during a sales order update. The
address that appears is the "Bill to:" address buried 2 screens into the
customer file.

Yesterday, after 6 yrs, the president wants to know why the billing address
doesn't appear on the Sales Order Acknowledgement.

I read the follow up by Chris and agree that for a purchasing agent an ODBC
subreport would be necessary. I had to pull the salespeople's information
and apply an internal code to be displayed on the SO Ack.

Thanks,
David Gartner

Contact?






We need to send order acknowledgements to the person ordering and not to the
billing address. I'm sure we aren't the only ones but we are not sure what
hoops to jump through (or check marks) to control using the primary
purchasing contact's address....or if this is even possible. But all our
acknowledgements are using the billing address which severely delays the
info getting to the buyer if different states are involved. Any suggestions
or advice would be appreciated.

So I guess there is no way? At least in 6.10.

Todd,
This is one of those things in Vantage I just don't understand. It's ridiculous that "sell to" address is not the default or at the very least an option. Anyway, if you want something done right, you'll have to do it yourself. Luckily, this one is an easy fix with an ODBC subreport using the address fields from the customer table in place of the stock report address location. I would send mine but it's in CR XI for Vantage 8. HTH
