| Shipment Notices (whinh3100m000)Use this session to view and maintain advance shipment notices,
including the receipt of direct deliveries. To view and maintain details of a shipment notice, from the appropriate menu, select Details. To view and maintain details of a shipment
notice including related data such as shipment notice lines, routings, and
packaging, double-click the shipment notice to open the Shipment Notice (whinh3600m000) session. ASNs are sent by ship-from business partners to register information about goods that are due to arrive. The ASN header
contains information about the conveyance, shipper, supplier, and time of
arrival. ASNs can be received
by EDI or created manually. ASNs that you add manually obtain the Scheduled Manually status. An ASN provides details of shipments that are about to
arrive. ASNs can make the receipt process much more efficient. Instead of
having to scan an entire conveyance, warehouse personnel can receive a shipment
against a previously received ASN. Therefore, the use of ASNs makes the receipt
process faster and less prone to error. Note Use the Maps section to view the location of the Delivery Address. You must select only one record at
a time. ASN and handling units When you generate a handling-unit structure for
the shipment notice, shipment-notice lines, and item load structure, LN creates the handling
unit numbers based on the Internal Handling Unit Mask of the warehouse on the ASN. You can specify the Internal Handling Unit Mask in the Warehouses (whwmd2500m000) session. If no Internal Handling Unit Mask is specified, LN creates the handling unit numbers based on
the Handling Unit Mask that you can specify in the Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session. The shipment notice's
handling unit is the top handling unit in the handling unit structure. The
shipment-notice lines' handling units are the child handling units of the
shipment notice's handling unit. The item-load structure's handling units are
the child handling units of the shipment-notice lines' handling units. If the ship-from
business partner's handling unit numbers are specified on the shipment notice
and shipment-notice lines, they are linked to the newly generated internal
handling units in the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session. Ship-from Business Partner The business partner that ships the ordered goods to your
organization. This usually represents a supplier's distribution center or
warehouse. The definition includes the default warehouse at which you want to
receive the goods and if you want to inspect the goods, the carrier that takes
care of the transport, and the related buy-from business partner. Ship-from Business Partner The name of the business partner. Shipment The advance shipment notice's number. If an ASN is
received, the ASN's number is the first free number of the
series that is specified in the Series for Inbound field of the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session. Direct Delivery If this check box is selected, the ASN includes direct
delivery or project delivery lines. External Handling Unit The external handling unit is the handling unit number
provided by the ship-from business partner . If the ship-from business partner
did not provide a handling unit number for the ASN line, LN does not fill this
field. Handling Unit The internal handling unit number
generated in the current session. This handling unit number is used to process
the goods. If you generate a handling unit and an external handling unit is
provided by the supplier that is unique in LN, this external
handling unit code is used in LN to process the goods. If required, you can generate another
handling unit to replace the handling unit in this field. Planned Delivery Date The date for which delivery of a shipment is planned. Warehouse The warehouse to which the supplier plans to deliver the
goods. DeliveryCarrier/LSP The carrier that will deliver
the shipment. Carrier Tracking Number The number given by the carrier to identify the load or
shipment. The carrier uses this number for tracking purposes. ASN Arrival Date The date on which the ASN arrives or the date on which the ASN
is manually created. You can not change
the ASN Arrival Date. ASN Creation Date The date on which the ASN is sent by EDI. You can manually
change the ASN Creation Date. Note If you manually
create an ASN, the default ASN Creation Date is the current date and time. Shipping Date The date on which goods are shipped. Currency The currency in which the values on the ASN are expressed. Freight Value The total value of the shipped items. Charge Amount The amount of the charge in the same units as the freight
value. Kind of Charge If there is a charge on the shipment, this field indicates the
type of charge. Freight Load The load to which the ASN
refers. You can: - Zoom to the Planned Loads/Shipments (whinh4180m000) session to select a load created for a
specific warehousing order
- Zoom to the Loads (whinh4140m000) session to select a load that can be associated with
more than one warehousing order.
- Zoom to the First Free Numbers (tcmcs0150m000) session to select a series to generate a load number.
This number is used to calculate freight costs for direct delivery ASNs in Freight.
Freight Shipment The shipment to which the ASN refers. You can: - Zoom to the Planned Loads/Shipments (whinh4180m000) session to select a shipment belonging
to a load created for a specific warehousing order.
- Zoom to the Shipments (whinh4130m000) session to select a shipment belonging to a load that
can be associated with more than one warehousing order.
- Zoom to the First Free Numbers (tcmcs0150m000) session to select a series to generate a shipment
number. This number is used to calculate freight costs for direct delivery ASNs
in Freight.
Gross Weight Total weight of the shipment. Weight Unit The unit in which the weight is expressed. Shipment Reference The purchase schedule's reference that is used to receive
sequenced shipments based on a purchase schedule. When a handling unit
is generated for the shipment notice, the reference is also linked to the
handling unit. When handling units with references are received, the references
are also linked to the created receipt lines. When the receipt (line) is
confirmed, the reference is, together with other receipt information, passed on
to Purchase Control. Purchase Control, in
turn, passes on the reference to Assembly Control to inform that the sequenced
shipment is arrived. Hazardous Material If this check box is selected, the shipment contains
hazardous material. This field is for information only. Delivery Address The address to which the goods must be delivered. Delivery Address The name of the person or company. Suppliers ASN Number The buy-from business partner's ASN number. Suppliers ASN Number The field displays all the revised ASNs that are received for a
supplier ASN number. You can view all revisions of an ASN message for the same
shipment from the supplier. Note The field must contain a value if the following conditions
are met: The value in the field is not valid if the given supplier's
ASN number is already present on another ASN which is not Canceled or Replaced for the same ship-from business partner. EDI Information If this check box is selected, EDI information is
present. Shipment Text If this check box is selected, additional information
about the ASN is present. | |
