Page Description

Use the Standing Order page to establish or edit the recurrence schedule for a standing order. Note that the Daily tab is selected by default. If you add a recurrence pattern to an order that has already been collected, Copia will populate the next instance of the standing order into the system.

If you click the Recurrence Pattern button while reviewing an existing standing order, this page contains information on the other orders that are part of the selected standing order, including any scheduled, but not yet released, orders.

Copia displays an asterisk (*) next to the tab name to indicate which type of standing order you are viewing. It also displays an "(S)" next to the order ID throughout the program to indicate standing orders.

Because Copia stores the signed in location in the system, standing orders may use routing rules based on the original signed in location for subsequent orders in a series of a standing order.
