Manage Order User-Defined Labels

Use this screen to customize date, numeric, text, and validated text labels for sales orders.

User-defined labels help you to enter and track more information about your sales orders. Use the labels to capture user-defined data for individual sales orders for use on the Manage Sales Order User-Defined Information screen.

You can use these optional labels on any selected sales orders on the Manage Sales Order User-Defined Information screen. You can also use this screen to set up validated text and labels so that you can control what is entered into the user-defined fields. Validated text labels allow use of and can be created in the following ways:

  • Select the Validated Text check box and use the Validated Text subtask to customize the information that you and your users can view when clicking on the Manage Sales Order User-Defined Information screen.
  • Clear the Validated Text check box and click in the Costpoint Validation Field column to select the Costpoint data table column that will be used for on the Manage Sales Order User-Defined Information screen.

You must set up the labels or validated text for user-defined fields here before they display on the Manage Sales Order User-Defined Information screen. Although you can set them up at any time, for more complete sales order information, you should set them up before you enter any sales orders.

Warning: If you delete a label from these tables, Costpoint deletes all references to that label on other Sales Order Entry tables.
