Return not Shipped Goods (whinh4231m500)

Use this session to generate a transfer order to transfer the Not Shipped Quantity in Inventory Unit goods of the current shipment line from the staging location back to the storage location. If required, on the generated transfer order, you can specify another location than the original storage location.

This session is only available for location-controlled warehouses.

Handling units

A handling unit that is set to Not Shipped Quantity in Inventory Unit is returned to the storage location based on the outbound advice of the transfer order created using this session.

If a handling unit is partially Not Shipped Quantity in Inventory Unit, the not-shipped quantity is returned anonymously (without handling units).

If handling units are mandatory in inventory, a handling unit is created for the not-shipped quantity, and this handling unit is returned to the storage location. This handling unit is created during the confirmation of the shipment line.

Handling units are mandatory in inventory if the ownership registration or the allocation registration is by Physical Item.

Note

Not-shipped goods are removed from inventory if the Automatic Adjustment of Quantity Not Shipped check box is selected in the Shipment Lines (whinh4131m000) session. Handling units that contain goods that are removed through an adjustment are set to Closed. The related adjustment order is not linked to the not-shipped handling unit.

 

Shipment

The shipment line for which the not-shipped goods are transferred from the staging location to the storage location.

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

A number of items produced and stored together that are identified by a (lot) code. Lots identify goods.

Inventory Date

A date that is assigned to items when they are stored. You can use inventory dates to retrieve items based on FIFO (First In First Out) or LIFO (Last In First Out), without carrying out extensive lot control.

The meaning of the inventory date is connected to the outbound priority of LIFO, FIFO, or the product expiry date of the item.

With outbound priority LIFO or FIFO, the default for the inventory date is the system date; however, you can overwrite this so that the inventory date does not have to be equal to the storage date. If the item has a particular shelf life, the inventory date is the product expiry date defined for the item.

Serial Number

The unique identification of a single physical item. LN uses a mask to generate the serial number. The serial number can consist of multiple data segments that represent, for example, a date, model and color information, sequence number, and so on.
