NECS has implemented support for automatically merging orders into existing invoices within the entrée.NET and the Electronic Order Pad order import process in entrée.
Currently this feature is only active in the order import process for entrée.NET and the Electronic Order Pad.
•This feature allows the order import utility to automatically consolidate multiple orders for the same “Ship To” Customer and Delivery Date into a single invoice for the date.
•The Automatic Order Import Consolidation feature is OFF by default.
•You must enable the feature and configure your entrée settings using the new Order Import Consolidation configuration dialog accessed in System Preferences before you can use it. * See the Order Import Consolidation Settings section for details.
•The feature can be enabled, disabled, or configured differently for each order source.
•The feature may be disabled on a per-customer basis in the Customer Miscellaneous Tab in the Import Options area. * See the Customer File Maintenance section for details.
The Invoice Selection Process
The process for selecting what invoice any new orders get consolidated into provides you with choices that are defined in the Order Import Consolidation dialog accessed via the System Preferences > System Options > Additional Features menu.
**See the Order Import Consolidation topic in the System Preferences section of this guide for detailed information about using this feature.
