About On-Hand Quantities and Locations

On the Inventory Parameters form, if the On-Hand Neg check box is also selected, the EDI Transaction Load Routine sets the item stockroom location for a CO shipping transaction to the Rank 1 location, or, if the item is lot-tracked, the system selects the location in lot number order. If there is not enough on-hand quantity at that location to fill the order, the EDI record displays in the Customer Order Shipping Error Processing form with an error stating that there is not enough available on-hand quantity at the location. To force the use of that location, select the Override check box on that form and then click Post to post the order.

If the On-Hand Neg check box is not selected, the routine selects an item stockroom location that has sufficient on-hand quantity to fill the order, and then posts the order. If there is no location that has sufficient on-hand quantity, the routine uses the last location in the list as the default location, and then displays the EDI record in the Customer Order Shipping Error Processing form.
