Releasing Outbound Order Lines and Confirming Pick Lists

Use the Release Outbound transaction to release order lines for shipment or to confirm pick lists. The parameters are configured to restrict the releasing of order lines that have not been picked and/or packed; the transaction will verify the status of order lines before releasing them for shipment.

When you enter an item number, the application searches for an unreleased outbound advice line related to the specified item. For an unreleased outbound advice line, the destination location is displayed only for an intra-warehouse transfer order.

To release order lines, on the Outbound Transactions Sub-Menu:

  1. Select LN Warehouse Mobility > Icon/List Menu > Outbound Transactions > Release Outbound. The Release Outbound transaction form is displayed.
  2. Specify this information:
    Release By
    Select whether to release lines by Order Number, Run Number, or Mission Number.
    Run Number
    Specify a run number. This field is only displayed if you are releasing lines by run number or by mission number.
    Mission
    Specify a mission number. This field is only displayed if you are releasing lines by mission number.
    Order Type
    Select an order type. This field is only displayed if you are releasing lines by order number.
    Order Number

    Position From and Position To
    Specify a range of position numbers to release on the order line. The position numbers specified in these fields, and all position numbers in between, are included in the range. This field is only displayed if you are releasing lines or confirming pick lists by order number.

    Specify an item number if the advice lines to be released relate to a specific item. This field is displayed only if the Release by Item parameter is selected in the Transaction Set Maintenance form.

  3. Select Process. The specified outbound order lines are released, or the items on those lines are marked as picked in Infor LN.
