Sales Order Acknowledgement Automation

SUGGESTED

New to the Sage 500 ERP world... so bare with me here Slight smile

Currently when a sales order is created it goes into an unacknowledged status... At the end of the day, someone manually goes to Sales Orders>Print/Acknowledge Sales Orders and just runs a saved setting- This is a manual process and given the amount of SO we are doing, i starts to add up on the tasks on end users.

How would I go about creating a Task to run this every day on its own, say at 4pm, for all orders that are SO Status=Unacknowledged?

In System Manager>Tools>Task Editor I can see there is a SO task but not sure if its running or not..

Here is the TASK 

Here are the properties of the task

    This is controlled at the customer level.  On the Maintain Customers application, on the Sales Order tab, there is a checkbox called Require Acknowledgement.  Uncheck that box for customers that do not require acknowledgement.  If you want this behavior going forward, modify the Customer Classes which has a similar checkbox that is the default for new customers (note it does not change existing customer records).

    Ramon, thanks for the reply... I think what I was referring to is to automate the process not to remove this from our Customers. Something that I can schedule to run automatically at 4pm (for example). Currently few users domestic/international sales leads have to manually go in every day and execute this task. Not all customer we have are EDI integrated... 

    Thanks in advance for any help/advice you can provide...
