| | Handling Units (whwmd5630m000)Use this session to view or maintain handling units. Note that enhanced handling unit maintenance and handling unit
structure manipulation functionality is available on the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session. To maintain a handling unit in the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session, select the handling unit and click Compose Handling Units. As a result, the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session opens displaying the selected handling
unit and other handling units with matching warehouses, locations, and
statuses. If you do not select a handling unit and start the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session, the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session displays the handling units whose
status, warehouse, and location match those of the top handling unit from the
list of handling units displayed in this session. Note On the appropriate menu, options
you cannot use on account of the status of the selected handling unit are
disabled. Handling Unit The handling unit code that is used to uniquely identify the handling unit in LN. You can either
manually define handling units in this session or in the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session, or generate handling units in various
stages of the inbound and outbound flows. If you manually define a handling
unit in this session, to define the handling unit code you can enter an
alphanumeric code in this field. To enable LN to generate
handling units, you must use Handling Unit Mask to define handling unit codes. When
a handling unit is generated, the handling unit code is generated as specified
in the handling unit mask. Parent Handling Unit The parent of the current handling unit. Version The version number of the handling unit. The initial version
number of version-controlled handling units is 1. After a version-controlled
handling unit is split, it obtains a new version number. Handling units that
are not version-controlled always have version number 0. Handling units for which splitting is
enabled can be defined as version controlled in the Handling Unit Version Controlled field of the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session. Complete If this check box is selected, the structure of the
handling unit has not changed since the handling unit was received in the
warehouse. If the structure of the handling unit is change after receipt, this
check box is automatically cleared. Splittable If this check box is selected, the handling unit can be
split up into two or more handling units, for example, as a result of inbound
advice to different locations. Item The item that is packed by means of the handling unit. Quantity The quantity of items expressed in the storage unit. If the handling unit is a parent and one or more child handling
units of the parent are destroyed after inspection, the destroyed quantity is
subtracted from the parent's quantity displayed in this field. Note that if you manually create a handling
unit, you cannot specify the number of items to be packed by means of the
handling units. To pack items by means of a handling unit, you can use the Pack command on the appropriate menu of the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session. For further information, see Pack: to generate a handling unit for several items. In addition, if handling units are
generated for receipts, shipments, advice, inspections, and order lines, the
handling units contain the number of items specified on the shipment, receipt,
and so on. Lot The lot to
which the items in the handling unit belongs. Note If you scan a handling unit's label on receipt and the handling unit is specified for the ASN or ASN line in the Shipment Notices (whinh3100m000) session, LN retrieves the lot from the ASN or ASN line. If no lot is
specified on the ASN or no ASN is available for the receipt, LN retrieves the lot
from the Receipt Lines (whinh3112s000) session, if specified. Inventory Date Note If you scan a handling unit's label on receipt, LN retrieves the inventory date from the Receipt Lines (whinh3112s000) session when the receipt is confirmed. Children Present If this check box is selected, the handling unit has
child handling units. Dimensions Fixed If this check box is selected, the dimensions of the
handling unit are fixed. This means, that the dimensions of the handling unit
will not change if items are added to the handling unit. Gross Weight The gross weight of the handling unit. The gross weight is the
weight of all items and their packages in the handling unit. As a result, the
weights of all children and packaging items are included in the handling unit's
gross weight. Gross Weight The unit in which gross weight of the handling unit is expressed. Net Weight The net weight of the handling unit. The net weight is solely
the weight of the items in the handling unit. As a result, the net weights of
all children are included in the net weight of the handling unit, while the
weights of all packaging items in the handling unit are excluded. Quantity The quantity of the packaging item that is used for the
handling unit. For example, the handling unit has 100 packaging items of type
Box. Labeled If this check box is selected,, for each packing item
defined for the handling unit, a label record is created. These labels can be
printed. In this way, each existing packing item is uniquely identified. For
example, if the boxes on a pallet are labeled, each box obtains a label when
handling units are generated for an order for milk cartons. Warehouse The handling unit's status determines which warehouse is
displayed in this field: Received The warehouse in which the item must be put
away. Receipt Open The warehouse in which the item must be put
away. Open The warehouse from which the item must be picked. Shipment Frozen The warehouse from which the item must be
picked. In Transit The warehouse is retrieved from the inbound-order
