Use the Manifests Archive page to display information about manifests that have already been archived.

After successfully importing, clearing errors, and generating a document for a manifest, it can be archived. The system maintains a history of manifests that have been successfully imported, and the purchase order is created. The archiving process can be done manually for each manifest record or set up automatic archiving. You can view information about already processed manifests on the Manifests Archive page, which contains the same details as the Manifest section.

To Archive a manifest

The following procedure describes how to archive a manifest.

  1. Select the Search icon , enter Manifest, and then choose the related link.
    The Manifests list page opens.
  2. Open a manifest that you want to archive.
  3. On the action bar, select Actions > Archive Document.
  4. A dialog box appears, and select Yes.

The manifest is archived. You can view it on the Manifest Archive page. From here, you can also use it to restore the manifest that it was archived from.

To set up automatic document archiving via the Batch Process

You can set up automatic archiving of manifests before you delete documents. The following procedure describes how to set up the automatic archiving of manifests.

  1. Select the Search icon , enter Manifest, and then choose the related link.
    The Manifests list page opens.
  2. On the action bar, select Actions > Batch Archive Document.
  3. On the Batch Archive Manifest template, in the Manifest Header tab, select the document date, planned receipt date, and vendor number that determine which manifest records are included.
  4. When you click OK, the system will run as a batch of all templates in the selection and generate the corresponding manifest records.

Please note that archiving a manifest will not be possible if either of the following conditions exists:

  • The manifest status is not set as Processed or Order Created.
  • Not all manifest lines have been processed into an order.

To set up automatic document archiving via Job Queue

To automate the archiving of manifest documents after purchase order creation, you can configure a job queue using the codeunit ID 71422851.

The status should display Ready for proper functioning.

When the job queue runs, the specified codeunit calculates which manifest documents are processed, and purchase orders are created for those manifests. This, in turn, archives the manifest documents automatically.
