Hi Jim,

Currently the Comment fields on the OE order header do not flow to AR documents, meaning that they are not available for printing on statements. Should we implement the capability of customizing which information on the OE invoice goes to AR, such as these comments, then the answer for your question would change to Yes, this can be printed on statements.

Here is something that just might work for you, in using the optional fields to send the desired information from OE to AR. You need the current versions AR90A and OE81C. What you need to do is define the optional fields in OE and the respective Batch optional fields in AR with exactly the same title, including capitalization. You must also use the 'Direct' method in the OE company profile for creating AR batches when Day End processing is performed.

If this is setup, then when you create an OE order, you would enter the desired project description, profile number and PO number into optional fields. Then when Day End is done and the AR invoice batch created, this information will be found in the Batch optional fields, as opposed to the Description fields. These batch optional fields can be printed on customer statements.

As an example for you to test out if desired, make the OE optional field text 1 = 'Project desc' and the AR Batch optional fields text 1 = 'Project desc' as well. Also ensure that Direct is the Receivables batch type as set on the System Options tab on the OE company profile. Then do an order and invoice, then run Day End. You should see an AR invoice batch with that optional 'Project desc' information.

As a side note, if you defined the AR Customer optional field text 1 = 'Project desc' as well, then if you edit a customer and put information into the text optional field there, then when you create a new order for that customer, the optional text info will automatically populate the OE optional field of the same name.
