Modifying the sales order's Ship To address
Sales order processing has been enhanced to allow the Ship To addresses to be named individually and to have one of the phone numbers of the customer to be selected.
Getting ready
To use this recipe, users need a basic familiarity with the sales order processing and maintaining customers.
How to do it...
To set a name of the Ship To address, perform the following steps:
- Open the Customer Address Maintenance window in Dynamics GP by selecting Sales from the navigation pane and clicking on Addresses.
- Enter, or do a lookup and select, the Customer ID.
- Enter, or do a lookup and select, the Address ID.
- In the Ship To section of the window, enter the Address Name, which is to be included on the sales document.
- Choose whether one of the three phone numbers, or the fax number, from the master customer record is to be printed, or you can choose Do Not Print if none are required for the loaded address.
How it works...
When a sales transaction is entered, the Ship To address is entered on each line as normal. When the transaction is printed, the address name and the selected phone number is printed along with the address itself.
There's more...
The same Ship To address functionality is used in drop ship orders in purchase order processing. When the order is printed, the address name and phone number will be printed in the same way as they are printed in the sales transaction.
