Sales Orders Closure

Our Customer Service Manager generates the packing list for shipments. She
verifies the shipment against the sales order, making sure we are shipping
the correct line item and checking to see if there are any special
instructions. At that time she marks our copy of the packing slip with a
"P" or "C". P for partial, C for complete. When the invoice package gets
to order entry for filing in the order file, she checks to see if its marked
C or P.

Subject: [Vantage] Sales Orders Closure


I am curious how other companies deal with sales orders that are complete.
We use a paper order system with the PO we receive from our customer kept in
an open file until the order is shipped complete. We are having a problem
with knowing when a particular shipment is the last one on the PO and
therefore indicates that this PO should be closed (and the paper PO filed
away). Is there a report or does someone have a report or method that shows
when a PO is complete?

Actually we have regular meetings where we go through every order on the
books. Sales, Engineering, Administration and Production each use a
working copy of the S/O acknowledgment while I bring a report that I
print minutes before the meeting. My report only shows open S/O lines.
It has straightened out more than a few questions regarding an order's
status.
