4. Meet Our Speaker
David Bush
Senior Manufacturing Consultant,
Rootstock Software
• 30+ years of manufacturing and MRP/ERP
systems experience
• Previously at General Microcircuits,

Systems, Inc.
5. A Quick Recap
• What we have covered in our first 9 episodes:
– Built parts, subassemblies and finished product using
Engineering and Bills of Material
– Shop Floor Routings define how an item is
manufactured
– Purchasing brings raw material and assemblies into
stores
– MRP – balances supplies and demands
– Work Orders creating both supplies and demands
– Inventory controls material to be used to satisfy
various system demands
Today we look at a another vital facet of
ERP/MRP systems, sales order management
6. What Makes Up the Sales Order Management
Segment of ERP?
• Customers
• Products
• Orders
• Sales People
• Supporting Records
₋ Reason Codes
₋ Price Books
₋ Customer Classes
₋ FOB/Freight/Carrier Codes
Each segment contains valuable information used throughout the ERP
system. Let’s look at some details
7. Customer Details
• Customer Number identifies a specific customer or organization that purchases your products
• Customer Name is linked to the customer number, along with detailed information including:
₋ Currency this customer uses
₋ Their order history
₋ Customer addresses
₋ Bill-to address (1 per site)
₋ Ship-to addresses (multiple per site)
₋ Contact Information including names, email/phone, role, etc.
₋ Customer Class, used for discounts, reporting, assignments
• Accounting Data
₋ Open Invoices
₋ Credit limits
₋ Payment history
Let’s move on to Product Details
8. Product Type Details
• Standard Products Defined in Engineering
₋ Typically have no or few options
₋ A single part number identifies the item being purchased
• Configured Products
₋ Start with base item (standard product)
₋ Various options chosen that define a unique item
• Engineered to Order Items
₋ May be based on standard product, but engineered to specific customer requirements
₋ Design phase and testing often included with order
₋ Commonly used by government contractors, building contractors, etc.
• Service Items
₋ Typically time and material contracts
₋ May be for repair and maintenance or initial installation
₋ May be engineering only, no real ‘product’ to sell
Let’s take a closer look at the Product Master Record
9. Product Master Record Information
• Provides Product Details used for Sales Orders, Accounting, Reporting
• Basic Information is held on the record header:
– Product Group (similar to cc, providing default information for this item)
– Product Type (stock, configured, engineered, service, etc)
– Default Sales Price (if more complicated pricing structure not used)
• Additional Information held on this Record
– Order quantity rules
– Lead Times for packaging, shipping, etc.
– Inventory details including ship-from division and location, UOM
– Product Attributes including weight, dimensions
Products and Customers come together on the Sales Order Object
10. Sales Order Details
• Matches Customers with Products They Wish to Purchase
• Provides MRP with Specific Demands (parts/dates)
• Vehicle for Required Paperwork
– BOL
– Packing Slip
– Invoice
• May include blanket orders, configured or engineered
items, standard products, service items
• Pricing Detail, including discounts and currency
This customer’s salesperson also included… let’s look at some detail
11. Salesperson Details
• Documents percentage for commissions and determines
when commissions are paid
• May be linked to specific customers/regions/products
• Includes contact information including address,
telephone, email, etc.
• Often used for reporting sales data
Next we will examine how all these details come together in Rooststock,
starting with the Customer Master
20. What have we covered today?
• Sales Order management controls several vital aspects of
the ERP system:
– Customers
– Products
– Sales Orders
• Customer Orders provide most of the ‘demand’ used by
the MRP engine
• Invoicing and Accounts Receivable naturally follow order
entry to complete the manufacturing circle
21. Where Do We Go From Here?
• We have now covered the basics of:
– Manufacturing, from creating parts and bills of material to
purchasing material
– Creating demand for items via sales orders
– Building sub and final assemblies using routings and shop floor scheduling
– Using the basic planning tool used by all ERP systems
– Material Requirements Planning
• In our April 25 webinar we’ll discuss Project Control:
– What IS Project Control?
– Planning, maintaining and costing by project
– When should project control be used, when not?
Now let’s go back to our moderator, David Cosgrove…..
