Our goal is to automate the process of formatting and faxing order information to several different dropshippers. Currently our Access database allows us to view and modify a customer order, preview the packing slip for that order, and print the packing slip. The problem is the labor-intense process involved in getting our orders to our vendors. Every day we ... 1) manually print each individual packing slip 2) sort the printed slips by vendor 3) print a cover sheet for each vendor 4) fax each set of orders to the appropriate vendor 5) update each order record with the date sent to vendor. WHAT WE HAVE NOW ... We have developed a "New Orders" Form with a dropdown list of vendors. When a user selects a vendor, the form is populated with a list of all new orders for that vendor. WHAT WE NEED TO ADD ... The following functionality needs to be added to our "New Orders" form. 1. Ability for the user to select and/or de-select any or all orders listed on the form 2. Button that will trigger the creation of a formatted document (see below for a detailed description) which includes data from all of the selected orders. This document should appear immediately in preview mode. 3. While in preview mode, the user should be able to click a button that will fax the document to the associated vendor. Once faxed, this document needs to be automatically saved in a specified folder using a predefined file naming convention. It should not be saved unless it has been faxed. 4. After a fax of orders is sent, each order record needs to be updated with the "Date Sent to Vendor". DOCUMENT DETAILS ... The document that is created will be a fax which includes order information that needs to be sent to the dropship vendor. The fax needs to include: 1. A cover sheet with specific vendor details as well as the number of attached orders. 2. One page for each order, formatted to our company's packing slip design.
