Outbound Line Status Overview (whinh2129m000)

Use this session to view the activities of an outbound-order line and the quantities of the items that are processed when the activities are carried out.

The activities that must be carried out for an outbound-order line are determined by the warehousing-order type that is specified in the Warehousing Order Type field of the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session.

Inventory Unit

The inventory unit in which the quantities are expressed.

Item

The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold.

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

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The examples of nonphysical items:

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

A code that identifies the type of a warehousing order. The default warehousing procedure that you link to a warehousing order type determines how the warehousing orders to which the order type is allocated are processed in the warehouse, although you can modify the default procedure for individual warehousing orders or order lines.

LN retrieves the warehousing-order type from the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session.

Order

The order set groups order lines of the same order.

The order lines are grouped if the following attributes match:

  • Ship-from partner
  • Ship-to partner
  • Ship-from address
  • Ship-to address
  • Carrier
  • Shipping date
  • Original company
Canceled

If this check box is selected, the outbound-order line must be canceled. The outbound procedure must be followed. Cancellation is finalized during confirm picking or confirm shipment/load. In this scenario, the original order line must remain, until the outbound-order line is deleted or receives the Shipped status.

Note

If the outbound-order line is of a manual order origin and the originating order of the outbound-order line is canceled, LN always selects the current check box and does not delete the outbound-order line, irrespective of:

  • The outbound-order line's status.
  • The value of the Remove Canceled Outbound Order Lines upto and including field in the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session.
Automatic

Create Order Line Activities

Use this command to generate the activities that make up the warehousing order procedure for the order line.

This command is available if no activities exist for the selected order line. Activities exist for the order line in either of the following cases:

  • After order processing for the order line has started and the first activity is carried out.
  • If you previously used this command to create activities.

After you click this command, the activities of the warehousing order header of the current order line are copied to the Activities by Outbound Order Line (whinh2124m000) session. In this session, you can adjust these activities to define the order procedure for the current order line.

Open

Displays the outbound order lines for which a following activity is present.

For example, outbound order lines that have been released for which the picking lists are still to be generated.
