Feature - Add Additional Selection Parameters for Shipment Email

Feature - Add Additional Selection Parameters for Shipment Email


Release date: 5/19/2023

Version: 8.5 & Up

Additional selection parameters have been added to the current Shipment Confirmation Email screens: 

 COP --> Processing ---> print Pick/pack ticket and lbls ---> Print ---> Shipment email then
 
       1) Order ---> shipment ack with tracking number
       2) Order ---> shipment ack without tracking number
       3) Invoice --->  shipment ack with tracking number
       3) Invoice --->  shipment ack without tracking number

All four of the Shipment Email screens have four new selection fields as you see in the screen sample below.  Entering "Space" in Starting Customer No or Starting Customer Type will signify that "All" Customer Numbers or Customer Types will be included.  Starting Customer No, including space for "All," and Ending Customer No. will both be saved in the Registry to be used the next time the program is run.  



In addition to those four fields, another field has been added  to  Order ---> shipment ack with Tracking number: "Send Duplicate Email." 



The mechanism to prevent a duplicate email is based on the order ship ack date sent field.  If the "Send Duplicate Email?" is "N" and the order ship ack date sent field is not zeroes, a duplicate email is prevented. Enter "Y" in this field to send the email regardless of the value in the date field. The  order ship ack date sent field is cleared (set to zeroes) during posting if there is a partial post.  Before this update, the date field would retain its value.  So, if you use the default of "N" for "Send Duplicate Email?" those partial ship orders posted before this update may not send an email.  Users that have the practice of partial ship should be aware there will be a transition period before the flag "Send Duplicate Email?" can be work functional.

Modified programs: CP02S9H, CP02P9H, CP02P9H2, CP0305
