Sales and warehousing order structure

To allow delivery of incomplete bills of material (BOM) or kits, the structure of sales orders and related warehousing orders is adjusted.

If kit handling is specified on the sales order type, the sales order header represents the top kit level and each sales order line represents a subkit level. The components of the subkit are listed in the Sales Order Line Components (tdsls4163m000) session.

When the sales order is released to warehousing, LN generates:

  • A warehousing order set for each sales order line. The subkit item from the sales order line is inserted in the Kit Item field of the warehouse order header.
  • An outbound order line for each component line from the Sales Order Line Components (tdsls4163m000) session.
[...]

The warehousing order header lists:

  • In the Order field, the warehousing order number
  • In the Order Set field, the warehousing order set number
  • The Order for Kit check box, which if selected indicates that the warehouse order is a kit order.
  • The Kit Item field, which shows the ID of the subkit item. The value in this field is taken from the sales order line that initiated the warehousing order set.
  • Quantity in Storage Unit field showing the quantity of the subkit item for the current order set, which is taken from the sales order line.

In the Item field, each outbound order line lists the ID of a component item that belongs to the subkit listed in the warehousing order set header. The Ordered Quantityin Inventory Unit field lists the ordered component quantity. For example, if the order header set lists 5 subkits A, and according to the bill of material (BOM), subkit A consists of 20 components A1, the outbound order line for component A1 lists a quantity of 100.
