---++ Order Entry Batch

%TOC{depth="6"}%
---+++ About
   * _Enter Batch_ facility is especialy created for customers.
   * Customers are able to pre-store their Cargo Office orders (status: batchentry) and to send their orders definitely at any desired afterwards (status: sent).<br />This is often used, so:<br />
      * Rush- and peak-hours for customers can be made less stressfull because they did most of their entries beforehand.
      * Orders can be checked later (by different users of the same customer) before it is made a definite order.
      * Transport companies are informed beforehand of the expected requests of their customers.
   * Most batch order entry functionality uses the same default functions as the [[Cargooffice/OrderentryStart#Description_default_orderentry_t][regular order entry form]].
   * An important difference is that batch orders are not sent to the transporters' TMS-software or email address (only after it is sent).
---+++ Where to find
   * Order Entry Batch is found at:
      * for customers: Frontoffice -&gt; Orderentry -&gt; Orderentry form (batch)
      * for Cargo Office staff: Backoffice -&gt; Shipments -&gt; Batch Shipments -&gt; New Shipment (batch)

   * For data entry functionality see the [[OrderentryStart#Description_default_orderentry_t][regular order entry form]].<br />
      * 1. Click button _Store in Batch_ to store the orders in [[OrderentryBatch2][Overview of Batch Orders]].
      * Stored orders are not sent to TMS yet.
      * Stored orders can be deleted from [[OrderentryBatch2][Overview of Batch Orders]].
   * For any entered batch order you can add an extra (pickup or delivery) address.<br />This is often requested when you need to visit numerous delivery addresses for the same order.<br />
      * 2. Click button _Extra Address_.<br />
         * Consequently a sub-shipment (.01) is created in which you can modify order details.
         * When modifying order details check if you have to rearrange quantities of the base shipment (.00).
      * The sub-shipments are displayed in the top left corner of your batch entry form.<br />
         * So you are able to switch easily from one sub-shipment to the next.
         * The maximum amount of sub shipments is 99.
      * Sub-shipments have become individual orders, but can be grouped by the original shipment ID (the number before the .00, .01, etc).
      * Order details concerning all sub-shipments (often financially related) are stored in the base shipment (.00).
      * The Extra Address functionality is similar to: [[SplittingJobs][How to split jobs]].
   * On request Cargo Office Programmers can develop different forms or solutions per customer for you.
