Update deliveries

In the course of the delivery process, Warehousing updates a sales order several times.

To carry out these updates directly, in the Update Sales Deliveries field of the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session, select Direct.

Select Decoupled to split up the process of confirming a shipment line and updating the originating sales order into two separate processes and thus save performance. This is because the table behind the Deliveries (whinh4139m000) session is much smaller than its counterpart of the Shipment Lines (whinh4131m000) session. Consequently, only a small process table with a limited number of records is queried instead of the much larger shipment lines table.

To enhance system performance even further, select Batch. This option allows you to carry out these updates in a batch process in the quiet hours, thus reducing the risk of locking problems.
