Confirmation Message

The CONfirmation message allows you to confirm a cancellation request. For example, you may receive a CANcellation message requesting that an order not be filled. CONfirmation messages are optional. You do not have to send back a CONfirmation message if you receive a CANcellation message and are able to cancel the order.

However if you cannot cancel the order in time, you must send a DENy message to deny the cancellation (see DENy Message on page 4–29).

Sending a Confirmation Message

To send a CONfirmation message:

  1. On the FTD Mercury Main Menu, in the Search area, click Message. You can also click Message Center from a blank Order Entry or Point of Sale window. The Message Center opens.
  2. Perform a search to locate the message to which you want to respond.
  3. Select the message from the results list and click Respond.
  4. From the menu, click Confirm. The Create CON Message window appears with most of the information completed for you.
  5. Change any information or add notes as needed.
  6. Click Send.

The system prints a verified copy of the message on your Mercury printer once the message has been received by the Host Computer (unless you have specified otherwise in Mercury Administration). The verified copy includes the Mercury number.
