Parent Child relationship

Like most 'hold' processes in Vantage (whether is be customer credit, vendor approval, or part revision approval, etc.,) - the result isn't a total halt (sometimes even ANY halt) on being able to do 'normal' processing (where most reasonable people would expect the 'hold' to force a processing halt - or at least warning).

Welcome to Vantage - (Analogous to the continuity & completeness of its internal processes) - the product with lots of disconnected superhighways & no roadsigns to keep you from driving off a shear cliff when the highway just ends.

You definitely could write your own VB customization to pop up a warning window. I assume a BPM would also work. With a little more work you could also probably force a halt by trapping the appropriate BO method call (before execution) & killing it.

I sent this post to the group on . Am I the only person on the list

who uses the Parent Child relationship and Alternate Bill to on my

Customers?



We have a Customer set up as a Child Customer. The Parent Customer is the

Default Alternate Bill To. The Parent Company called and they want the

Child Company to be on Credit Hold. When we put the Child Company on Credit

Hold, our order entry people do not get a warning message (we are set up in

Company Configuration to warn on Orders and Stop on Shipments). When the

Job is done, our Shipping people can Ship without a warning or a problem.

If I take the Alternate Bill To off, we get a Warning. If the order entry

person puts the Alternate Bill To back in, the Job Ships without a problem.



How do other users on this list handle problems with Alternate Bill To's?



Thank you



Jeff



I received this response from Epicor a few moments ago. They said that the

system is working as designed. It is my belief that the Parent company

should be able to put the Child Customer on Credit Hold. When I put the

Child on Credit Hold the system ignores the system settings that direct

Vantage to Warn on Order and Stop on Shipment, because the Parent Customer

is not on Credit Hold. Am I the only one who thinks this should not be

designed this way?

Happy Friday to you all. Go Panthers! :-) (sorry)





We have two sides of our business. The receiving guys want the option
upon receipt to select the "default" receiving bin. I know in Company
Maintenance you set that up and it seems pretty static to me.



Is it common practice to want to receive to multiple receipt bins
depending on the material received?



I know while in Inspection you can change it, but they were wanting it
before that step. Any thoughts?



Thanks all.

Consider Primary Bin setup on the part....parts are received
automatically to their primary bin....if it is blank, then it is
received to the top bin (that is in alphabetical order).

Granted then you have to maintain at the part.....is this what you were
looking for?
