Apply From Hold and Settle Ticket By Ticket (AGS-11292)

Benefits:

• Minimize time to correctly select, process, and settle tickets following entry of final weights/grades.
• Minimize the time (in keystrokes) it takes to process tickets through to delivery sheet application.

Details:

• Ticket Entry has an existing option to Apply/Settle the ticket upon entry.  When selecting option 6 (Apply/Settle), the ticket is split to the ticket split parties (if applicable), and each split party's portion can be applied to their respective contract(s).  You are then launched into the settlement process to complete the settlement for the ticket. 

• When all splits are settled, the system returns to entering another ticket, instead of returning to the main menu.

• This project accomplishes this same behavior in the Apply-Tickets-From-Hold process.  It does not include any new functionality in the "group" apply-from-hold menu option.

Apply/Settle One Ticket At A Time 

Navigation: GRN > Shipments > Apply From Hold, Apply/Settle One Ticket At A Time

Option 4 above is a new menu option provided by this project.  It functions exactly the same as menu option #1 (Apply One Ticket At A Time).  You are able to enter the same filter criteria as menu option #1 and begin applying the tickets from hold.  After each ticket is applied to a priced contract, the settlement screen appears.  This allows you to settle that ticket before continuing with the next ticket from hold.

Settle The Ticket From Hold 

Navigation: GRN > Shipments > Apply From Hold, Apply/Settle One Ticket At A Time > Apply To Spot Contract

This settlement screen automatically appears with a new Delivery Sheet number already created.  A delivery sheet form will not print. The rest of the settlement process will be the same as when you create a delivery sheet and then navigate to the settlement menu option.  The new delivery sheet will be settled. The settlement form and check/invoice form will print. If you decide to NOT settle a ticket, press Escape when the settlement screen appears, in order to continue to apply the next ticket from hold.

The settlement process does not initiate in these conditions:

• The ticket is marked with estimated weights and/or grades
• The ticket was applied to storage
• The ticket was applied back to hold
• The ticket was applied to an unpriced contract
• The ticket was applied to a priced contract that has a deferred payment date in the future

Apply/Settle The Next Ticket From Hold 

Navigation: GRN > Shipments > Apply From Hold, Apply/Settle One Ticket At A Time > Apply To Spot Contract > Settle

After the first ticket is applied from hold, the system returns to the apply-from-hold process, and automatically pulls up the next ticket to apply (based on the filter criteria previously entered).
