Warehouse Procedure
Shipping Department
It begins with the arrival of batches of shipping notice. ____ clerk converts the hard copy of shipping notice to digital form to produce a transaction file of sales order.
The resulting transaction file will thus contain many separate batches of records. For each batch stored on the file, the batch control totals are automatically calculated
Keystroke
The edit program first validates all transaction records in the batch by performing clerical and logical tests on the data. After validating, it recalculates the batch control totals to reflect anychanges due to removal of error records. The edited sales order file is then passed to the file update run.
Edit Run
This system generates a number of management reports, including sales summaries, inventory status reports, transaction listings, journal voucher listings, and budget and
performance reports.
