17. What if I experience an Interruption in my Order Processing?
If you receive a "CORBA EXCEPTION", "PAGE CAN NOT BE DISPLAYED", etc. during the ordering process, then click on the
refresh button on the tool bar of your web browser. If it does not come back to right page, then you can check the status of the
order by using the RESUME an unended order feature on the Parts Ordering MENU. Type in the order number and click on go.
It will display the items that are in that order. If it comes up with no part numbers then you know it did not take. Always double
check the list of part numbers and line numbers on your order if you experience any interruptions while placing an order. If you
only placed 6 line items and the line numbering is up to 12, then you have doubled up on your order..
