Generate freight orders for warehousing ordersIn some situations, you may want to create a freight order for an originating order even if freight order creation was not specified for this order. For example, this can happen in the following cases:
In these cases, you can still create freight orders in the Generate Freight Orders (fmfoc1234m000) session. In this session, you can generate freight orders for the warehousing orders related to the originating orders. For this purpose, you must select the Warehousing order origin and specify the relevant range of warehousing orders. If you generate freight orders for a range of warehousing orders in this way, you overrule the setting of the Generate Freight Order from Warehousing check box, which is cleared, so that no freight orders are created, on the warehouse order lines. This setting is determined by the Warehousing Order Type of the warehousing orders. If the warehousing order types specify that freight orders be created, the problem would not have existed because freight orders would have been created when the warehouse orders are saved. If the Warehousing Order Type specifies that no freight orders be created, you must create freight orders by means of the Generate Freight Orders (fmfoc1234m000) session just mentioned. This does not apply to the Sales, Purchase, or Enterprise Planning order origins, because you can change the selection of the Generate Freight Order from Sales or the Generate Freight Orders from Purchase check box on the originating order line before the originating order is released to Warehousing. When you release orders of these origins to Warehousing, you can generate freight orders for the warehousing orders of these orders. Enterprise Planning orders are not taken into account, because you can overrule the freight order creation setting when the Enterprise Planning order is transferred to a warehousing order. When you start up the generation of freight orders for the warehousing orders that match the selection criteria that you specified in the Generate Freight Orders (fmfoc1234m000) session, LN takes the following steps:
