[solved] 4.03, N. American Release, Customer Ship-To

MW59 · 2006-11-09

Hello...

Does anyone know if there's user functionality that permits one to declare a Customer Ship-To Code to default and validate on Sales Order headers or is that a Programming change?

Thanks,
mw

It's a programming change. It's very small and would take less then 20 min.

Basically create a new field in customer table called default ship-to code. Set the relationship to ship-to address table

Then in sales header.
in the following trigger
Sell-to Customer No. - OnValidate()

change this code to

//start modification
//VALIDATE("Ship-to Code",'');

GetCust("Sell-to Customer No.");
VALIDATE("Ship-to Code",Cust."Default Ship-to Code");
//end modification

Cool! ... thanks very much, ara3n.

I suspected it wasn't standard, but decided I should check. There's so much to know.

This is one of those things that is nice to have. I don't know why navision didn't added as standard feature. My guess, they sell it as a separate granuale ship-to address.

On the other side, kine would say that it would require hundreds of hours of testing and programming in order to get this into Navision spX

I think because the default address is the one on the customer card. Why does anyone need a second default?

it's not in world wide and not in US.

It's not a matter of 'a second default', it's a matter of having one 'Default shipping address'. There are many companies that have a main warehouse where they want their orders to be shipped to, with a different physical address than the main office, or that have their mail delivered to a PO box. It would be nice to have the option to use ship-tos and mark one of them as the default one.

Exactly! The customer I'm implementing is departing an aged application called FACTS that facilitated precisely that.

MW, this is a very easy modification. Your solution center should be able to do it within a few hours.

I like my solution better Denster.
It's one line of code in sales header, and one new field in customer table.
