<p>This window provides options when you operate the <b>Convert to Sales Order, BoM and Route</b> function on the <a href="mjobs">Jobs Menu</a>.</p>
<p>You will be asked to confirm the Estimate or Job you wish to convert in the <a href="wjoborderno">Select Job</a> window before these options are presented. The <a href="../parts/wpartselect">Select Part</a> window will open for you to select a <b>Like part for the new part</b> that will be created in place of the Job or Estimate.</p>
<p>Enter the new part number, a description and a stock unit of measure. Then select the options you want.</p>
<p>When you complete with an <b>OK</b>:
</p>
<ul>
<li>The Like part will be copied and given the new part number, description and UoM</li>
<li>If the option is checked, a Bill of Materials will be created consisting of all part numbered lines in the Estimate or Job in the stock quantities ordered.</li>
<li>If the option is checked, a Process Route will be created of all operations. The runtime for each will be the runtime multiplied by the quantity ordered.</li>
<li>The new assembly will be costed and the standard costs set to the calculated current cost.</li>
<li>If the option is checked, a new Quotation or Sales Order will be created with a single line item of the newly created assembly.</li>
<li>If the option is checked, the Estimate or Job will be deleted from the system.</li>

<h2><a name="top"/>Job Maintenance</h2>
<p id="navline"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://caliach.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/arrowright-21.gif" width="9" height="10" alt="Document path" align="bottom"/> <a href="../index">Reference Contents</a> &gt; <a href="index">Jobs and Estimating</a> &gt; Job Maintenance</p>
<h4>Introduction</h4>
<p>Jobs and Estimating can be viewed as an alternative to the more conventional Quotation, Sales Order, Work Order, Dispatch process cycle. Estimates and unconfirmed Jobs. Jobs are like Sales Orders but can include operations and therefore combine parts, work operations and non-part items in one document. They integrate fully into all scheduling processes elsewhere in the program. Estimates and Jobs are specific to customers and are processed in the following order: A Estimate is prepared and printed and can later be confirmed as a Job. Alternatively, a Job is entered directly. A Job Acknowledgement can be printed.</p>
<p>A Job can contain any number of both part-numbered and non-part-numbered items and work operations linked to a work centre. The status of stock and Job Items can be reviewed in different ways. A combined Picking and Make-To List, or separate Picking List and Make-To List can be printed. The complete or part issue is confirmed and the operation processing can be recorded in Job Operation Working.</p>
<p>Finally the Job can be invoiced in two alternative ways; by line item or as general invoices. The Invoices are then printed and customer payments logged. This cycle is provided to give control of all stages of the process: Estimate, Job, Issues, Operation completion, Invoicing and Payment.</p>
<p>The system uses the following files of data:</p>

<h4><strong>Unlocking a locked order</strong></h4>
<p>If you select an order that another user currently has open, you are shown a message telling you the record is locked. Normally you can only wait for the other user to release it.</p>
<p>From v6.0008, nominated users are additionally offered an Unlock button on that message. Unlocking releases the record so it can be opened. The flow is three steps: you are told the record is locked and offered the Unlock button, you confirm that you want to unlock it, and the lock is then released so the order can be selected.</p>
<p>The button appears only for users listed in the relevant system option, as a comma-delimited list of User IDs. Use the option matching the document type: <strong>optJobUnlock</strong> for Jobs and Estimates.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://caliach.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/warning40-2.jpg" alt="Warning" width="24" height="24" /><strong> </strong><strong>WARNING: </strong>Only unlock an order if you are certain it is not genuinely in use. Unlocking a record that another user is actively editing risks their work being lost or the two sets of changes conflicting. The intended use is recovering an order left locked after a crash or an unclean exit — it is a cleaner alternative to re-uniting missing relatives.</p>

<h4>Operation</h4>
<p>Enter data in the data entry boxes to restrict the range of parts. Jobs must meet all criteria entered to be selected. If the left and/or right data entry boxes are left blank for a particular criteria, items will be selected between the first and/or last otherwise qualifying item record.  Data entry boxes can be populated by finding a single item using <strong>Keyword Search</strong>, drag and drop from the <a href="../scratch/wscratchcustomers">Customers ScratchPad</a> or by double-clicking a list item from the <a href="../general/wkwdpopup">Keyword Result</a> window.
</p>
<p>Data records can be obtained using one of the following methods or a combination of them (see Tip below):</p>
<ol>
<li>Enter values into the selection ranges and use the <b>Standard Search</b>. The <a href="../general/msearchsub">context menu</a> provides a Clear Selection function.</li>
<li>Define or use a <b>Custom Search</b>.</li>
<li>Create an <b>Ad Hoc Search Calculation</b> using the <a href="../general/msearchsub">context menu</a> function.</li>
<li><b>Drag-and-drop</b> one or more lines from the Customer ScratchPad onto the general window area.</li>
<li>Use the <b>ScratchPad Transfer Selected</b> function</li>
<li>Use the <b>KeyWord Search Transfer Selected</b> function</li>
</ol>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://caliach.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/tip40-19.jpg" width="24" height="24" alt="Tip"/><strong> TIP:</strong> Using an <b><i>Ad Hoc Search Calculation</i></b> (3) overrides any <b><i>Custom Search</i></b> (2) and a Custom Search overrides the <b><i>Standard Search</i></b> (1). In any of the search cases (1, 2 or 3), ScratchPad Transfer and Drag-and-Drop or KeyWord Search Transfer (4, 5 or 6) is <b>combinational</b>, so that records found using any of these methods must <b>also</b> conform to the search criteria adopted.</p>

<p>This window is a general purpose review window for Estimates and Jobs. It is opened if you drill down on a reference to a job and if you click on the <b>Show</b> button on the <a href="wjoborderno">Select Job</a> window. This is simply a review window and no changes can be made. However, right-clicking on the Job Number will provide access to the Job menu for maintenance functions.</p>
