Shared Applications - Duplicate Documents: Copy Document  


These applications are common to the requisition, order and goods received input applications although field attributes may differ depending on the type of document processed. These applications are normally not directly accessible from a menu but from related Pop Up Menus on fields in the Requisition, Order or Goods Received options. The ITS philosophy is that the user should be able to enter a request or order on the Requisition or Order options; should the user however require additional functionality the functionality is available and directly accessible from the record on a second or third level.


Duplicate Documents

Three options all relating to the copying or duplication of documents are available on the option duplicate documents.

Copy

This function is used to create a new document using the information previously entered on a document. If copied using "Copy" the order does not refer to another document. The copy from document will not indicate that a copy was made.

Block 2:  Line Copy
On commit all lines flagged to be copied will be copied to the order.

Delivery Campus
If the campus on the lines copied differs from the campus on the order the following  warning is displayed -
The procurement system uses the campus to derive the delivery address for a document if not entered by the user. The campus is a mandatory field on all Requests and Orders.

MyMarket B2B vendor
A instituition uses the MyMarket B2B vendor if the system operational definition code - "PZ- Use MyMarket B2B Vendor = "Y"

A creditor is a B2B creditor if a record exists in the option {FPMEMM-1} where the external body is  MMM and external code type is MMC, the Internal Code equals the creditor code and the External Information field is not null. The external information field is the code used by the B2B vendor to uniquely identify the creditor on the B2B exchange. The user further indicates 
whether the creditor may only be used to download item catelogues or only place orders via the B2B exchange or do both by setting the external code field to (C)atelogue, (O)rders or (B)oth. 

A instituition may allow only electornic orders to be palced for MyMarket B2B vendors or allow both electronic and paper orders to be placed, if the system operational definition code - "DMAllow B2B Paper Orders" is set to (N)o, no paper order are not allowed else if  (Y)es both paper and electronic orders are allowed.

If the
instituition uses the MyMarket B2B vendor and the instituition does not allow MyMarket B2B paper orders and the item item type is not a general or stock item and no record exists on the general item creditor definition or stock item creditor definition with a part number, the item will not be copied to the order.  A warning will be dispalyed  to warn the user of the items not copied, the warning is  "Creditor linked to external body MMM and code type MMC, Item type must be Store or General and exists with part number and unit of measure - Item will not be copied".

If the instituition does allow paper orders  the lines will be copied but the "How Placed " indicator on the order will be updated from "Elecdtronic" to "Paper".
