Using OnOrder

The basics of OnOrder are to select or create a company, then select or create an order from that company.  Once you have selected either a company or an order, you can then edit it to reflect any changes to it.  As soon as you switch to another company or order the updated information is automatically saved.  Any new information is also saved if you quit the OnOrder program.

To setup information about your company, click the Setup button.  This is also where you set options for OnOrder.

OnOrder will eventually stop you from creating new orders and companies if you have not registered.  Unregistered copies of the program have not been paid for.  The software is not crippled, there are limits only in the quantity of information you can enter in the unregistered version.

Setup

The Setup window is where you can enter information about your company as well as set options for OnOrder.

The Tax area lets you set your local sales tax so OnOrder can figure the tax cost on ordered items.  Just click the tax beanie to have OnOrder guess the tax charges.

The Modem area lets you select the COM port for your modem.  This is required if you want OnOrder to dial your phone for you.  You can also set a Dial Prefix if your phone system requires one for an outside line (e.g. 9).

The Word Processing area lets you specify your word processor so you can start a memo directly from within OnOrder.

The License Information area is where you enter the license number given to you when you register.  This will unlock the program and allow you to enter as many companies and orders as you like.  See Also: Registering


Reports

You can create and print reports to show summary information about your orders.

1. Click the Reports button to bring up the Reports window.

2. Click a preset date range (e.g. Year-to-date) or type in a date range.

3. Select the status of the orders youd like included or select All Orders.

4. Click on one of the report types:

    The Orders report shows a list of all the orders in the specified date range.

    The Payment report shows a list of orders grouped by the method of payment.

    The Shipment report shows a list of orders grouped by shipping method.

    The Vendor report shows a list of order grouped by vendor.

5. When the report window appears, you can simply read the report and close it, or print the report out for future use.  Click one of the Close or Print buttons.


Orders

Creating New Orders

To enter a new order, select a company then click the New button next to the list of orders.  Enter any of the information you have about the order.  You are not required to enter any of the fields except the Order Description field.  In other words, if you do not have an Invoice Number for a given order, OnOrder does not care if you leave that field blank.

When you have entered all the information you have for a new order, click the Done button.

Updating Orders

If you decide to update the order later, simply select the company, then click on the order.  Then you can enter or change any of the order information and your changes will be saved automatically.  Changes are saved whenever you select another company or order, or when you exit the program.

You can press the F5 key at any time to locate the next outstanding (not arrived) order.  You can keep hitting the F5 key to cycle through all the outstanding orders.

OnOrder defines an outstanding order as one where the order status is not arrived.

Deleting Orders

If you decide to delete an order, simply select the company and order you want and click the Delete button next to the list of orders.  Deleted orders can not be undeleted so be careful.


Companies

Creating New Companies

To enter a new company, click the New button next to the list of companies.  Enter any of the information you have about the company.  You are not required to enter any of the fields except the Company Name field.  In other words, if you do not have a Customer Number for a given company, OnOrder does not care if you leave that field blank.

When you have entered all the information you have for a new company, click the Done button.

Updating Companies

If you decide to update the company later, simply select the company, then you can enter or change any of the company information and your changes will be saved automatically.  Changes are saved whenever you select another company or order, or when you exit the program.

You can press the F3 key at any time to search for a company by name.  You can keep hitting the F3 key to find the next match.

Deleting Companies

If you decide to delete a company, simply select the company and click the Delete button next to the list of companies.  All the orders for that company will be deleted at the same time.  Deleted companies and orders can not be undeleted so be careful.
