Warehouse Transfer Orders

As part of handling logistic for work orders, warehouse orders and planned inventory transactions are generated. The warehouse transfer orders are generated for the following scenarios:

  • For the Maintenance Sales Order - Part Maintenance Lines (tsmsc1110m100):
    • Receipt Warehouse to Work Order Warehouse.
    • Work Order Warehouse to Warehouse.
  • For the Work order generated using the Generate Work Order option from the Action menu in the Service Order Actual Material Costs (tssoc2121m000) session: Actual Warehouse in the Service Order Actual Material Costs (tssoc2121m000) to From Warehouse in the Work Orders (tswcs2100m000) session.
  • For the follow-up Work order generated using Transfer to Department option from the Action menu on Work Orders (tswcs2100m000) session : To Warehouse of the original Work Order to the From Warehouse of the follow up Work Order.
  • For the Work Order Outgoing Subassemblies (tswcs4150m000): When Action is To Department a follow up work order is created for the subassembly item. Transfer order is from Warehouse in the Work Order Outgoing Subassemblies (tswcs4150m000) to the From Warehouse in the follow up Work Orders (tswcs2100m000).
  • For the Work Order Incoming Subassemblies (tswcs4151m000): Incoming subassemblies are used to incorporate the subassembly again after they are disassembled by an outgoing subassembly. When follow up work order was created on the outgoing subassembly the transfer order on the related incoming subassembly is from To Warehouse on the follow up Work Orders (tswcs2100m000) to the Warehouse on the Work Order Incoming Subassemblies (tswcs4151m000).
Note

Only if the delivery and receipt warehouses are different, Infor LN creates a warehouse transfer order in the Transfer Order Attributes (tstdm3100m000) session. The session holds all the warehouse related data. When warehouses are the same, no warehouse transfer order is generated. For example, a follow up work order can be generated and the From Warehouse on the follow work order is the same warehouse as the warehouse on the original work order where the item is received, then no transfer order is required.

Defining data for transfer orders

The field To Warehouse is available in various Service sessions. The transfer order can be generated from these sessions. You can use the Transfer Data option from the action menu to access the Transfer Order Attributes (tstdm3100m000) session.

Note

The transfer order option is applicable only if a record is available in the Transfer Order Attributes (tstdm3100m000) session, for the related data.

Planned Delivery Date and Planned Receipt Date

The Planned Delivery Date for the transfer order is defaulted with the time and date, the item is received (or planned to be received) in the warehouse. The Planned Receipt Date of the transfer order is calculated based on the time required to transport the item from the delivery warehouse to the receipt warehouse.

Updating Warehouse Orders and PIT

If the warehouse orders are not processed, the data used for creating these Warehouse Orders can be updated.

If the warehouse is changed, the warehouse order for the existing warehouse must be deleted. Infor LN creates a warehouse order for the new warehouse. In case of transfer orders, if the ‘To Warehouse’ of the transfer order is changed to the ‘From Warehouse’, the transfer order is no longer required. When this warehouse is changed and set to a value other than the ‘From Warehouse’, a transfer order must be created again.
