Does anyone know how to interpret the data stored in the sales deliveries procedure mask, field tdsls045.pmsk?

The pmask is a representation of your order steps, and therefore depend on the order type that is being used (and how it is defined).
Every position represents one of these steps.
Every position can have three values (that I know of), with 'e' being the value for a completed step.

The other 2 might come to me after my third cup this morning.

Check out this thread (http://www.baanboard.com/baanboard/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6105).

The values for the pmask as describe to me by BaaN are as folows;


n - this step is not coded to be performed
y - this step is to be performed
e - this step has been performed
c - this step has been perfomed more that once

Thanks for all the input on this. It has been very helpful.

In one of the threads, there was mention that field "stno" tells you the current step (the next step that should be executed). I am running IVc3. It appears that field tdsls045.ssls also stores the next step that should be executed and I cannot find a field named stno.

Does anyone know if field stno is in a prior release of BaaN or is it in a table other than tdsls045?

tdsls045.ssls is the next step to be executed. In various pieces of Baan code, there are variables such as stno.4404, which might represent the step number of "Print Sales Invoices" (tdsls4404m000). This is determined at run time using a function in itdsls0014. Perhaps that is part of the confusion. However, you list the correct field.
