Shipment Notice Lines (whinh3101m000)

Use this session to view and maintain advance shipment notice lines. ASN lines contain information about orders that are about to arrive, such as items, quantities, and packaging. ASN lines can refer to orders to be delivered to your warehouse, direct delivery orders, or project delivery orders to be delivered to a project site.

Note

You can link multiple expected order lines to an advance shipping notice using the Expected Order Lines (whinh3820m000)) session. To access this session, click New... on the Actions menu.

Serialized items in ASN lines

If an ASN includes information on serialized items for which the low volume scenario is used, LN creates an ASN line for each individual serialized item. For example, if the ASN refers to a purchase order with one line that lists 10 serialized items, LN creates 10 ASN lines, each ASN line including one serialized item.

If the ASN includes information on serialized items for which the high volume scenario is used, LN creates an ASN line for each order line of the order to which the ASN refers. The serial numbers are listed in the ASN Line Lots and Serials (whinh3105m000) session for each ASN line.

Manually created ASNs

If you manually create an ASN and ASN line, you must link an order line to the ASN line. You can link expected order lines, direct delivery order lines, or order lines for projects without warehouses to a manually created ASN line. To link an order line to a manually created ASN line, in this session, proceed as follows:

Expected order lines

  1. Select the Search for Item check box. As a result, the Item field becomes available.
  2. In the Item field, zoom to the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) session to select the item for the order line that you want to link to the ASN line. As a result, you can select an expected order line based on the item you just entered in this field and the ship-from business partner entered for the current ASN line.
  3. In the Order Line field, zoom to the Expected Order Lines (whinh3820m000) session to select the expected order line that you want to link to the ASN line.

Direct delivery order lines

  1. Select the Search for Direct Delivery check box. As a result, in the Order Line field you can select a direct delivery line for the ship-from business partner of the current ASN line.
  2. In the Order Line field, zoom to the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session to select the direct delivery line that you want to link to the ASN line. For this purpose, the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session only displays direct delivery lines.

Order lines for projects without warehouses

  1. Select the Search for Lines with Infor LN Project without Warehouse check box. As a result, in the Order Line field you can select a project delivery line for the ship-from business partner of the current ASN line.
  2. In the Order Line field, zoom to the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session to select the project delivery line that you want to link to the ASN line. For this purpose, the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session only displays project delivery lines.

 

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.

Shipment
Sequence

The sequence number of the ASN line.

Gross Weight

Gross weight of the item shipped, including packaging weight.

Gross Weight

The unit in which the weight is expressed.

Net Weight

Net weight of the item shipped, excluding packaging weight.

Item

In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants.

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
Order Origin

Order Line

The number of the warehousing order.

You can only enter an order with one of the following order origins:

  • Purchase
  • Purchase Schedule
Order Line

The warehousing order line number. If the order is generated by a package other than Warehousing, this number is the same as the original order line number.

Order Line

The sequence number of the warehousing order line.

Direct Delivery

If this check box is selected, the ASN line is a direct delivery or project delivery line.

Shipped Quantity in Inventory Unit

The quantity shipped by the supplier in inventory unit.

Quantity Shipped

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.

Linked toReceipt Line

If this check box is selected, the current shipment notice line is linked to a receipt line.

Related topics

Specification

If this check box is selected, specifications are present for the items included in the current shipment notice line. Specification information is available in the fields of the Demand Peg group box of the details session.

The field is displayed only if the Demand Pegging and Assembly Control (ASC) check boxes are selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.

In case of purchased configurable items, the ASN specifications are populated from the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session. In turn, the specifications on the inbound order line are populated from the purchase schedule line. For more information, refer to.

Note

The ASN specifications are populated only if the specifications on the inbound order line are functional and meaningful. Example: Specifications with null or no values is not functional and meaningful.

Effectivity Unit

A reference number, for example a sales order line or a project deliverable line, that is used to model deviations for a unit effective item.

Lot

The lot code of the shipped item.

Serial Number

The serial number of the item listed on the current ASN line. This field displays a serial number if the item is serialized and the low volume scenario applies to the item.

Reference

The purchase schedule's reference that is used to receive sequenced shipments based on a purchase schedule.

If 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, together with other receipt information, is passed to Purchase Control. Purchase Control passes the reference to the Assembly Control to inform that the sequenced shipment is arrived.
