4.50 PU2 Client is using the BIE view for sales orders and wants to right click and jump to invoice data entry. Problem is they have batches turned on and the system prompts them for a batch number and after selecting takes them to invoice entry. Without batches on it starts an invoices against the sales order selected. I don't see a way around this, has anyone else?

With Batches enabled on their system, are you saying that they'd like the Invoice Entry to open for the Sales Order selected? Have you actually seen it do this without Batches turned on, and does it just automatically use the next sequential Invoice #? In 4.40, it appears that with or without Batches enabled, it doesn't open Invoice Entry for the S/O selected.

Bernie, I have this enhancement where it reads their mind and takes them to the correct batch. Have you asked the customer how the system is suppose to know which batch to take them to unless it prompts the use. I guess you could use BOI and change it so that it creates a batch each time automatically but do you really want to create a batch each time? Maybe you want to go into an existing batch. What then. Just saying.

Brett- you are right, not sure what I was thinking there. Louis- They do want to go to an existing batch, is it possible to set a default batch for the user?

I am guessing you could maybe use BOI and code it so that it reads the batch number in the BIE view and goes into that batch.
