Order History Tab: Serial Control

The Order History tab information is identical to the information in the Order History button on the Subscription tab. Both contain a history of all orders attached to the current control record. If an order is associated with a serial control, the Order History tab always appears when displaying, modifying, or removing controls.

The following Order History information appears in a table.

When creating or modifying a serial control record, order information is maintained using the Order History button on the Subscription tab. Clicking the Order History button displays the serial’s order history, if any, in a window which allows you to add a new order link, replace the current order link, or delete the serial’s order history. If there is no existing order link, only the Add Order button is active.

The Order History display button or tab does not display if the acquisitions module is not active.

For more information, go to FAQs: Linking and Maintaining Subscription Orders.

The following fields are defined for the Order History tab for serial control.

Current Order

This field will display a Y for Yes next to the order that is currently active for this serial control.

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.

Line

This field indicates the orderline number for the order. Every line on the order is automatically assigned an orderline number. This number identifies which line item on the order is displayed.

Order ID

This field uniquely identifies a single order record. You can type an Order ID or use the Order Lookup gadget to select an ID.

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.
