| | The Ship Kit Complete constraintKit handling allows shipping incomplete subkits. For individual sales orders or sales order lines,
however, you can use the Ship Kit Complete constraint to enforce shipping of
complete topkits or subkits. If insufficient inventory is available
to fulfil an entire sales order or sales order line, only the inventory that
makes up complete topkits or subkits is advised. Example A sales order line lists four pieces of subkit A and constraint Ship Kit Complete is specified on the sales order line.. Subkit A consists of the following components: | Component | Quantity | Inventory unit |
|---|
| C1 | 3 | pcs | | C2 | 4 | pcs | | C3 | 6 | pcs |
The available inventory for subkit A is: | Component | Quantity | Inventory unit |
|---|
| C1 | 15 | pcs | | C2 | 18 | pcs | | C3 | 20 | pcs |
The sales order line for subkit A results in three outbound
order lines within one order set. The ordered quantities for the outbound order
lines are: | OOL | Component | Qty sk | Qty BOM | Qty Comp | Inventory
unit |
|---|
| 001 | C1: | 4 | 3 | 12 | pcs | | 002 | C2: | 4 | 4 | 16 | pcs | | 003 | C3 | 4 | 6 | 24 | pcs |
| Legend |
|---|
| OOL | Outbound order line |
|---|
| Qty sk | Ordered quantity of subkits |
|---|
| Qty
BOM | Component quantity per subkit |
|---|
| Qty Comp | Ordered quantity per component Qty sk *
Qty BOM) |
|---|
The available inventory is insufficient for component C3.
Therefore, LN advises
only three instead of four subkits A. For the last subkit, a back order is
generated. The advised quantities after generating the outbound advices
are: | - | Advice for C1: 3 * 3 = 9
pcs | | - | Advice for C2: 3 * 4 = 12
pcs | | - | Advice for C3: 3 * 6 = 18
pcs |
| Component | Subkits | Component qty | Inventory unit |
|---|
| C1: | 3 | 9 | pcs | | C2: | 3 | 12 | pcs | | C3 | 3 | 18 | pcs |
For each outbound order line, an inventory shortage message
appears if insufficient inventory is available to fulfil the order. Note The Ship Kit Complete constraint only works for generated
outbound advice. If the outbound advice is manually created or manually changed
or deleted after generating the outbound advice, LN does not perform the
ship kit complete check for the outbound advice, but postpones this until
confirm shipment. Therefore, if delivery of complete kits is no longer
required while the outbound procedure is in process, to bypass the ship kit
complete constraint, regenerate the outbound advice (to advise incomplete kits
as well) and remove the ship kit complete constraint from the sales order line
before confirming the relevant shipments. If negative inventory is allowed, LN does not perform the
ship kit complete check for generated or manually created outbound
advice.
How LN calculates the quantity to be advised - For the quantity of ordered subkits from the Quantity in Storage Unit field in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session, calculate the required quantity for each
component of the subkit.
-
For each component, calculate the available quantity
taking into account: - For each component, check for shortages. If present, advise
the maximum number of complete subkits that fits into the available inventory.
