The DX Transaction Type
Overview
DX transactions are used to track changes that are made to Delayed Deliveries (DD) and Special Orders (SO) through Order Maintenance (02-08-02).
The first time a change is made to an order on a given day, a DX transaction is created for that day. Subsequent changes for that day are then added to that DX transaction. The original ticket number assigned in POS Entry (02-02) is used for all DX transactions.
You can view DX transactions on the Sales Audit (02-03), in Order Processing Order Inquiry (02-08-21), and in Sales Transaction Inquiry (02-16).
Messages
DX Day Closed
This message displays in Order Maintenance (02-08-02) when the current Start of Day date has been closed/updated in Sales Transactions. The ‘Lock’ button on the order is inaccessible and changes cannot be made to the order until Start of Day date is changed to a day that has not been updated.
DX Day in Future
This message displays in Order Maintenance (02-08-02) when the Start of Day date is more than one calendar month ahead of the Sales Transactions month (e.g. The Sales Transactions month is in October and the Start of Day date is in December). The ‘Lock’ button on the order is inaccessible and changes cannot be made to the order until the Start of Day date is in the current sales month or the next sales month.
If changing the Start of Day date does not solve the problem, check Preference 32, ‘Use Today’s Date for T/E Date’ in Trans Entry Pre-Prompt (02-18-01). If this preference is set to ‘Y’, the system ignores the Start of Day date and automatically uses today’s actual date, which could cause a problem if your system is not current.
