Create Customer Order from CRO Line

Explanation

This activity is used to create a new customer order for handling the dispatch of parts to the customer. The dispatch of the parts is handled from a customer order line, which is pegged to the component repair order line. A dispatch customer order line can be created anytime during the repair process. If the customer order is created before the component repair order line is processed to Completed status, then the customer-owned part is automatically reserved to the customer order.

Prerequisites
