Freight order maintenanceUsers can maintain freight orders in the Freight Orders (fmfoc2100m000) session, and freight order lines in the Freight Order Lines (fmfoc2101m000) session. Various default values for freight orders and freight order lines are controlled in the Freight Order Types (fmfmd0160m000) session and the Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) session. Modifying freight orders If the freight related data in originating orders is modified, the changes are reflected in the related freight orders, freight order lines, and/or cluster lines if the status permits changes. This can result in new freight orders, or changes in the existing freight orders. For further information on freight order statuses, refer to Freight order statuses. If a field in an order line of an originating order, such as quantity, is changed, this change is automatically copied to the corresponding freight order line. Changes to data in the originating order that affect the freight order header, such as the planned receipt date, can lead to the following results:
Freight order data can only be updated before loads are processed in Warehousing. If freight orders are updated, load building must be rerun to reflect the changes. After loads receive the In Progress status and are ready for further processing, no changes can be made to freight orders or originating orders, but see the following note. For further information on when you can update clustered freight orders, see To change freight order clusters. Note If quantities of loads, shipments, and warehousing orders are changed in Warehousing, these changes are reflected in the related freight order lines. Deleting freight orders Freight orders are deleted if their originating orders are deleted. You can also delete freight orders in the originating order if you clear the Generate Freight Order check box in the originating order line session, which you can do if you do not need particular freight orders for load building or clustering. For further information, see To delete freight orders from the originating order. In Freight, freight orders can be deleted if the status is less than In Progress or if the status is Closed. In addition, a freight order header cannot be deleted until all the order lines are deleted.
