Program SPGM, Global Comments Maintenance, is used to enter and maintain global comments to print on sales order and purchase order reports. Global comments are set up by report class, with effective dates.
The reports that will print the global comments include the following:
OEAPL, Print Order Acknowledgments (Laser)
OEPRL, Sales Order Pick List (Laser)
OEPLL, Sales Order Packing List (Laser)
ARIPL, Invoice Print (Laser)
ARSSL, Customer Statements (Laser)
POPRL, P.O. Print – Standard and Blanket (Laser)
POP3L, P.O. Print - Blanket Order Releases (Laser)
Some set up must be completed before global comments will print on the reports.
In program MUJM, Menu and Job Parameter Maintenance, for each of the reports on which global comments will print, enter the appropriate report class on the Job Definitions Tab.
