Printing Order Entry Customer Forms

You can print order confirmations for a range of orders at any time after they are posted and before they are cleared from Order Entry.

Note: Order confirmations list items and quantities that have not yet been invoiced.

ClosedBefore you start

  • Decide which report format to use for the order confirmations you are printing. More...

    Order Entry includes the following formats that you may be able to use when printing order confirmations:

    • OECONF01.RPT. A complete order confirmation (including lines and borders) that you can print on plain paper using a laser or ink-jet printer.
    • OECONF02.RPT. An order confirmation for preprinted forms.
  • If you are planning to send these forms by email, make sure that:
    • Email or Contact's Email is selected as the delivery method in the Accounts Receivable customer record, and that the email addresses are up to date.
    • Email messages exist for these forms in Order Entry. If you need to create email messages, see Creating Email Messages.
