Program OEST, Container Status Inquiry, is used to display sales order information by container. Containers are assigned to sales orders either when the order is shipped with program OESC, Shipping Confirmation, or during the staging process in program OSEM, Stage Sales Order for Shipping, or program OSCM, Staged Order Container Maintenance.
Sales order information includes the sales order number and suffix, customer number and name, ship date, sales order status, invoice number, ship to code and description, ship to attention line, ship to address, carrier vendor number PRO number, and order freight cost.
All sales order lines on the sales order will be displayed, regardless of whether the sales order line was containerized in the queried container. Sales order line information includes the line number, item number, quantity ordered, sales unit of measure, quantity shipped, quantity backordered, line item due date, list price, unit price, and extended price.
For each sales order line, the shipped container information is displayed. Shipped container information includes the container number, manufacturing unit and plant from which it was shipped, stock area and bin location from which it was shipped, control number range for the item, and quantity shipped.
For each sales order line, container information is displayed. Container information includes the container number, quantity boxed, control number, employee number, pack date, gross weight, container length, width, and height.
