Paragon DMS recognises when a customer has a Forward Order and will use this in the combination. However if you know you are going to be making a lot of alterations, (e.g. at Christmas) we suggest you combine the orders first, and then make the amendments. This is because you will be able to see the effect of the combination on the orders before making the changes. Also it is easy to scroll through each customer in turn.
The process of Combining Days Orders can be done at any time, but is particularly useful at Christmas or on other Bank Holidays, as it allows you to combine one day’s order into another day for all customers on a round in a single process.

| You can only move one day at a time. If you wish to ‘Treble Up’ then you must move each day into the ‘To’ date in separate moves. (E.g. Move Tuesday 27th into Saturday 24th, then move Monday 26th into Saturday 24th. Alternatively you could move Tuesday into Monday, then move the Tuesday/Monday combination from Monday to Saturday) Remember that once the order has been moved from a day, that day becomes empty. |  |
 | | You will be asked to confirm your selections. The days will now be combined, and the data recalculated. |
