The Shortages feature instructs entrée on how to handle items that were shorted when the invoice is printed.

 

 

•The default value for this field is Blank.

 

•An item is considered to be shorted if the quantity shipped is less than the quantity ordered.

 

Select the appropriate shortage code for the customer using the drop-down menu. Select from these options:

 

Blank

Leaving the shortage code blank will disable the shortage printing options.

 

Show shortages on invoice

This setting instructs the system to recap the shortages at the bottom of the invoice.

 

 

Do not print if quantity is zero

This setting works exactly like the Show shortages on invoice option except entrée will drop any items that were not shipped (quantity shipped = 0) from the invoice.

 

In this example there were 3 items were on the invoice but one item was not shipped, so that item was not printed on the invoice shown below.
