Sales order balance

Use the Sales order balance form to display the origin of the part requirement for the selected sales line, and to check whether the specified origin and destination quantities match.

The Difference field underneath the Total column will show '0' if the lines balance.

To display all sales lines of which the order balance is not equal to '0', run the Check for sales order exceptions process. The list generated is shown on the Sales order exceptions form.

The order balance is not in balance whenever:

• The quantities (or the quantities of a particular origin) found on a sales line differ from the quantities (or origin quantities) found on the shipping lines.
• The quantities found on a purchase order line are not equal to the sum of the quantities listed on the receipt schedule.
• The quantity specified in a production order is not equal to the sum of the quantities listed on the production order schedule.
• The assigned quantity is smaller than the quantity listed in the production file.
