Daily Shipment Extract

The daily shipment extract is done in Order Management.  Order Management is located in the PS module, menu item PSORM.ORM.  Your first step is to double click on the menu item ORM.  It will take you to the log in screen pictured above.  Here you will be required to enter your clerk ID and your password.  You can find and set up these clerks in the Maintain Clerk Master File.  You will also need enter a room and register.  Although entering a room and register is seemingly optional,  for extracting orders you must enter a room and a register.  There are drop down menus for both these options to help you choose.  Most AMS users will be preforming this extract in a back office register.  You will, most likely, have a register set up to preform jobs like the shipping extract.  If you want to set up a new register you can do this in the Maintain Register Master File (MRM).  Once you have entered all the necessary information needed in the log in screen, you will select Accept.

The next screen is your Order Management Order Selection Screen.  Here is where you will search for all the orders that you would like to extract and send over to the shipping company.  There are a number of ways to search for orders, but for extracting orders for shipping most likely you will want to search for orders with a specific projected ship date and orders with the status print pending. Projected ship date is an option in the second drop down menu. Here you will specify a particular date range.  The date range should be from the day after the last extracts through date to the next day that the shipping company will be shipping. 

You can also specify the status print pending.  This means that the packing document have not been printed; just another indication that an order has not been shipped. You will select Refresh and this will pull up the orders that fall within these parameters. The next step is to select work with checked.  

This screen will give you the option to select Print, Extract, Email
