Order settings
Actions
For UdBOs that are part of the Work Order, Move Order and Planned Maintenance Order, the following actions must be available in the layouts:
Action
Description
Start financial collection batch job
Generic option to start batch job for all Orders which have a specified Financial Collection status.
Send costs to Financial Collection
When the Orders are in the specified status, the Action will become available and can be applied for one single Order, to create a new Financial Collection or update an existing Financial Collection.
Status > Administratively Completed
The Financial Collection checks if Orders are in the system status ‘Administratively Completed’, to be able to Send cost to Financial Collection. As in this Status, no Costs are allowed to be changed, for an update/change of Costs a status-transition back to a different System-status is required.
Status > Canceled
The Financial Collection can be Canceled (which results in reversal of the individual Lines) by changing an Order to the System status ‘Canceled’, it would then update the Financial Collection Status as well, to trigger the batch job. It is possible to Send costs to Financial Collection in this Status as well. When ‘Canceled’ is used to reverse the total Cost Collection, but the Order needs to be updated, a status transition from Canceled back to the Active statuses must be configured.
