Handle Parts in Shipment Inventory

Explanation

When picked parts are located in a shipment inventory, it is possible to return, scrap, or move them. Note that for catch unit enabled parts, you must specify the catch quantity to return, scrap, or move. This applies when trying to return, scrap, or move less than the full quantity of the inventory part in a specific location.

When working with two-stage picking, if pre-ship delivery notes exist for parts and there is a change in part quantities, they need to be re-created and re-printed as the previous ones will be set to invalid. You can also create pre-ship delivery notes for specific orders that do not have delivery notes connected yet.

Prerequisites

• A customer order must have been picked or partially picked.
• An order type that uses shipment inventory must be used for the customer order. The Use Shipment Inventory check box in the Customer Order/Delivery Information tab must be selected.
• To create pre-ship delivery notes, the Use Two-stage Picking check box must be selected in the Customer Order/Delivery Information tab.

System Effects

• When parts are returned from shipment inventory, scrapped in shipment inventory, or moved between shipment inventories, inventory transactions and postings are automatically created.
• If the parts had a pre-ship delivery note connected, the delivery note will be set to invalid and cannot be delivered. It needs to be re-created with the correct quantities.
