Quantities on Quotation are appearing on Outstanding Sales Orders by Product Code, leading to inaccurate shortfall!

SUGGESTED

Hi

I have come across a situation where the products listed on quote sent from Sage 50 Accounts Professional are appearing on the Outstanding Sales Orders by Product Code report. Due to this, the shortfall is misleading as products not needed to be ordered are getting ordered to suppliers as they appear on Shortfall. How can I stop the product quantities listed on Quotation, from appearing on Outstanding Sales Order report?

 

Thanks

Amit

    Hi Amit

    Thanks for using the Sage Business Community. 

    • Select the Outstanding Sales Orders report and select Edit to open it in the Report Designer.
    • Go to the Report menu > Filters and amend what's already there from ((SALES_ORDER.DESPATCH_STATUS_CODE <> 2) AND (SALES_ORDER.ALLOCATED_STATUS_CODE <> 3)) to: ((SALES_ORDER.DESPATCH_STATUS_CODE <> 2) AND (SALES_ORDER.ALLOCATED_STATUS_CODE <> 3) and (SALES_ORDER.ORDER_OR_QUOTE NOT LIKE "QUOTATION"))
    • Click OK, then go back to Report > Report Properties and change the name
    • File > Save As > Leave the window as it is and Save 
    • The report will be saved into the My SOP reports folder in Sales Orders > Reports.

    Dear Fiona,

    Thank you for the support. I have changed it to following as when I was not doing remain <> 0, the list was showing all orders where the Quantity Remaining to Deliver were "0". Do you confirm this?

    remain <> 0 AND ((SALES_ORDER.DESPATCH_STATUS_CODE <> 2) AND (SALES_ORDER.ALLOCATED_STATUS_CODE <> 3) AND (SALES_ORDER.ORDER_OR_QUOTE NOT LIKE "QUOTATION"))

    Regards,

    Dear Fiona,

    I am touching again on this subject. My Report is giving inaccurate Data. After your suggestions, I changed the filter to as below:

     

    If I remove the "remain <> 0", the list shows all items on the Sales Order including the ones which are no longer outstanding to ship. This makes the list go longer. Please advise if what I have done is correct or not. 

    The concern is that this report now shows a total of open sales orders which does not match with the standard Outstanding Sales Order Report provided by Sage. There is a difference in values. How to solve this?

    Thanks!
