  1. AmeriComp • Background • AmeriComp industries manufactures specialized PC components and sells them to other businesses. Customers may send Purchase Orders using either the Web or the regular mail. AmeriComp processes these identically. The following narrative describes their order-entry process. Narrative • The order-entry clerk at AmeriComp receives a purchase order (PO) from a customer. The clerk enters the customer number into an online terminal. The clerk then enters the quantity and item numbers requested. The computer checks the inventory file and prints a Sales Order Header on the printer in the order-entry clerk's office. The order entry clerk reconciles the Sales Order Header to the PO and forwards the Sales Order Header to Accounts Receivable. • The clerk in Accounts Receivable reviews the Sales Order Header and checks the customer file. The Accounts Receivable clerk then approves the Sales Order Header (by initialing the approval box - the approved Sales Order Header is now called a Sales Order). The Accounts Receivable clerk copies the approved Sales Order and forwards the copy to the Shipping department. The Accounts Receivable clerk forwards the original Sales Order to the order-entry clerk. The order-entry clerk prepares a vendor acknowledgement and sends it to the customer. The clerk then files the Sales Order and Purchase Order together in a Sales-Pending File.
