How to Create a Reorder Using the Hand-Held Terminal (HHT)
Tip
Using the HHT to create your reorders.
At the HHT, fetch a reference file. Use the HHT to enter items as you would an invoice.
In the Invoice # field, if you are going to send the invoice electronically to the vendor, enter CAO
as a prefix (for example, CAO12334). In the Qty Items field, enter the quantity you want to
reorder. Send the DSD files from the HHT. Post the invoice to CDBWin.
On the Daily Work menu, click Purchases/Payables. On the
File menu, click Open. Select the paidout which posted from HDP
and click OK.
To add new items to an order,
your CAO vendor may require you to also add their Vendor Item #. This is
normally added automatically from converting EDI files, but in the case of an
item you have never purchased before, you must add the Vendor Item # to the
Inventory Maintenance record. Then the reorder file you create has the
number by which your vendor's system may identify the items you want.
If you want to hand this reorder to a vendor, on the
Print menu, click Order.
If you want to send this order
to your EDI vendor, on the CAO menu, click
Transmission > Create Order. You may be prompted to view the order. After you close the
order display, click Send Order. Close the Transmission window when finished.
