About Order Flags
During Beginning of day, orders are processed based on the Order Flags assigned in Order Maintenance
- Roll Forward: Determines if an order should be moved forward each day, unless it is considered complete.
- Clear Totals: Indicates that totals cush as Balance and Qty Delivered for a Roll Forward order should be reset to 0.
- Plus Flag: Indicates that an order is not to be considered complete even if the full quantity is delivered.
| Roll Forward | Clear | Plus | Filled | Result |
| Y | N | N | N | Roll |
| Y | N | N | Y | Skip |

When an order is Rolled Forward, the date is assigned to the current date. When an order is Cleared, the Balance and the quantitiy deliverd values are set to 0.
Processing Orders
If an order is set as Roll Forward, and either the Clear Totals flag, or the Plus Flag is set, then the order will always roll forward.
If an order is set as Roll Forward, and neither the Clear Totals flag, or the Plus Flag is set, then it will roll forward if the order is not complete (qty deliverd is less then the qty ordered).
Purging Orders
Orders are purged when the Order Date is older than the established number of days configured in the system. The default for CODs is 15 days and charge orderrs is 30 days.
