Generate Orders (KANBAN) (whinh2200m000)

Use this session to generate Kanban orders to feed the assembly line by replenishing warehouses.

Note that the Kanban system is unavailable for WMS-controlled warehouses.

You can generate Kanban orders based on:

  • Kanban IDs, which you can scan or enter manually.
  • Items which you can enter manually.
Note
  • To automatically process warehousing orders of type Transfer (Manual), select the Process Warehousing Transfer Orders check box.
  • If you generate warehousing orders of type Transfer (Manual), a report is printed with information on the created order.
  • If the item is a floor stock item, the receipt of the items in the WIP warehouse is not registered. An item is a floor stock item if the Floor Stock check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session is selected.

Warehouse

The warehouse that must be replenished. Note that the Kanban system is unavailable for WMS-controlled warehouses.

Location

The location of the warehouse that must be replenished.

Default value

LN retrieves the default location from the Location for Transfer field in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.

Note

You can only replenish a location if the warehouse in the Warehouse field is subdivided in locations.

Quantity Ordered

The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter.

The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock.

Ordered Quantity

The ordered quantity expressed in the inventory unit.

Default value

LN retrieves the default ordered quantity from the Supply Quantity field of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.

Supply Code

LN distinguishes three supply types:

  • Supplier
  • Warehouse
  • Work Center

  • If the item type is Purchased and the Supply from Warehouse check box in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session is selected, the default value of the current field is Warehouse.
  • If the item type is Purchased and a Buy-from Business Partner is specified in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session, the default value of the current field is Supplier.
  • If the item type is Manufactured and the Supply from Warehouse check box in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session is selected, the default value of the current field is Warehouse.
  • If the item type is Manufactured and the Supply from Warehouse check box in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session is cleared, the default value of the current field is Work Center.
Supply Code

The warehouse or the buy-from business partner from which the warehouse must be replenished.

If the Supply Code is Warehouse, the current field is filled with a warehouse code. LN retrieves the default warehouse from the Supply Warehouse field in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.

If the Supply Code is Supplier, the current field is filled with a buy-from business partner code. LN retrieves the default buy-from business partner from the Buy-from Business Partner field in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.

If the Supply Code is Work Center, the current field is not filled because it depends on the routing from which work center the item must come.
