What's wrong with the Order Action report?

how do you invoice an order without a shipment?  Order>Shipment>Invoice.  

When using the order action report we set all parameters but it doesn't generate the right data. We've had to manually reconcile our shipment clearing account the last two months. It either shows no data or irrelevant orders but shouldn't it generate Customer Orders entered but not shipped?

I apologize I should've specified orders entered, but not shipped- my fault on that

2 ways that we do it... make a custom Crystal report that runs waaaaaayyy faster than any canned junky report and you can put extra info into it.  or just use a search criteria filter in order entry that hides all the completed sales orders and only shows open ones.

if you are doing a "shipment" clearing, then why would it show orders not shipped?  it can't exist as a shipment if not shipped so there would not be any information in the shipment table.

Maybe you are really looking for shipments not invoiced?  Orders not shipped is just an incomplete order.
