On this tab you can configure additional order fields and even define them as required fields.

  • The customer-specific additional fields can for example be used in forms and Bs/L.

Set up fields for the company tab

ORDER → ADDITIONAL FIELDS

The names for the additional fields on this tab must be defined in the master data under ORDER → ADDITIONAL FIELDS.

A name for the additional field can be stored here for the corresponding order sector, main department and sub-department.

These fields can be

  • required fields or

  • search fields and

  • linked via customer codes and provided with plausibilities.

Use customer codes with links and plausibility checks

CargoSoft has developed a standardized solution for the use of specific basic data in the order processing: Customer codes.

Data, texts, descriptions, values, etc. can be recorded, separated by different groups, via a basic data program and these data can be linked with additional fields. These fields can be equipped with individual properties, e.g. search masks, required entries or basic data access.

The additional tab provides access to these basic data from the order processing.

Usage in the order entry

Main tab Order → sub tab (customer-specific tab name)→ here: CargoSoft

On this company-specific additional tab the configured fields become available after the next login or change of client.

Example:
A field has been generated for the sub-department OT that is declared as a required field.
Therefore, only the order header data tab and the company tab are active.
After filling in the required field and pressing the TAB key, all other tabs are activated.

Plausi checkbox is activated

The plausi function has also been activated in one field.
During data entry, CargoSoft checks whether the data that is entered actually exists in the master data.

→ Otherwise a message is displayed: The type with the identifier XXX does not exist.

It is possible to allow an additional field to access other master data tables.
