Thank you all for your quick responses. It is diffidently a processing issue and I can't get the TP to do anything about it. Sometime I can receive 10 change orders in a day then even after the order has shipped and a 945 sent back I will receive another change order the next day. The majority process with out a problem, just trying to get the last 1% to process correctly.
