Follow these steps to set up a new order specification in order.sensus.com.
An Order Specification defines how you want the unit to be built. You must have a
legitimate Customer Profile and a legitimate Configuration for that customer in the
system to assign to any new order specification. If you are creating an order
specification for a customer that is not in the system, go to Set up a new Customer Profile. If you are creating an
order specification to assign to a configuration that is not in the system, go to
Set up a Configuration.
-
From the order.sensus.com Customer Landing page, select Order
Entry, then Order Specifications,
OR, from the Pre-Order
Information drop-down menu, select Setup an Order
Specification.
The Order Specifications search screen displays.
-
For a new order specification, click the
button at the end of the search bar.
-
A new Order Specification data entry page opens. The first vertical tab is
Stock Number. Items that must be entered in order to save a new order
specification are highlighted in red. The stock number auto-generates as you
make selections.
-
Select a Product
Line from the first drop-down menu on the Stock Number vertical tab.
Options in the drop-down menus in the data entry section and the vertical
panes change depending on the product line. As you fill in the required
fields, they change from a red highlight to no highlight.
-
Fill in the Part Number options below the line. As you make your selections
from the drop-down menu, the actual Part Number auto-generates.
-
On the Primary Information vertical tab, enter the Customer Name. Click the
Search button to find your customer. If you do not
see your customer in the Customer Name lookup, you may need to create a Customer
Profile. See Set up a new Customer Profile.
-
Staying on the Primary Information vertical tab, associate this order with a
Configuration by selecting one from the drop-down menu. If you want to see the
details of the Configuration you are connecting this Order Specification to,
click the arrow directly to the left of the drop-down field.
Note: The available Configuration options may not display in the drop-down menu
on the Primary Information tab until you have saved your choices on the
Stock Number tab. They do not display unless you have a Customer selected,
as each Order Specification has to be tied to a Configuration, and each
Configuration must be tied to a Customer.
-
At any point in the process, select the Save icon
to save
everything you have entered so far. If this order specification file is missing
pertinent information, a Missing Information! warning displays in the vertical
tab.
