Order History Tab: Orders

The Order History tab information when an order is displayed is similar to the information in the Order History button in the Subscription tab of a Serial Control, where the Order History information is maintained.

The Order History tab displays on all orderlines. When an orderline is displayed, the Order History tab contains orders previously or subsequently linked to the same serial control record as the orderline you are displaying. If there is no link to a serial control, or if the only order associated with the serial control is the currently displayed order, the following message appears.

ORDER HISTORY:NONE

The following Order History information is displayed.

The following fields are defined for the Order History tab.

Final Unit Price

The final unit price includes the unit price as paid or invoiced plus any prorated charges and adjustments.

Fiscal Cycle

This field identifies a particular funding period. The funding period can be set up in quarters, calendar years, or fiscal years.

Order ID

This field, together with library and fiscal cycle, uniquely identifies a single order record. This ID can be generated by SirsiDynix Symphony, and may be used with the library and fiscal cycle, to display order information. You can type an Order ID or use the Browse Order gadget to select an ID.

Note: Order IDs must not contain spaces.

Orderline

When you are looking up by Order ID, you may optionally also select a specific order line number. Use this search if you want to go directly to an individual orderline on the order. This search is particularly useful for orders that have a large number of orderlines.

Note: This field can only be used effectively if you also type an order ID. If you enter a specific orderline without an order ID, the same list displays as if you had not entered a value.

Quantity Ordered

SirsiDynix Symphony tracks the total number of copies ordered. A Copies Ordered value is maintained at the individual order level, the orderline level, for a particular fund, or for a particular vendor. If this value is displayed in a vendor summary, it is the total number of copies ordered for all the vendors or all the cycles in the display. In a summary of orderlines, this number is the total for the list of orderlines. Canceled copies and removed line items are automatically deducted from this figure.

Vendor ID

Each master vendor record must be assigned a unique identifier (ID). This identifier is used throughout acquisitions and serials WorkFlows to help you quickly identify the vendor. The ID may be up to 20 characters long. For instance, Baker & Taylor might be referred to as BAKER. Publishers have an international standard number (the first digits of the ISBN) assigned to them, and you might want to use this number as the vendor ID. For example, the vendor ID for Pierian Press might be 87650.

Note: Vendor IDs must not contain spaces.
