Freight loads and shipments

Freight can generate loads and shipments for warehousing order lines and originating order lines. To generate loads and shipments, Freight must generate freight orders for the warehousing orders or originating order lines first. The loads and shipments that Freight generates from the freight orders are contained in a load plan. After the load plan is made Actual, Freight passes on these loads and shipments to Warehousing, where they are displayed in the Planned Loads/Shipments (whinh4180m000) session.

If Warehousing has generated loads and shipments for a particular warehousing order before Freight 's load plan based on the freight orders of the warehousing order is made Actual, the loads and shipments generated by Warehousing prevail. Warehousing 's loads and shipments will populate the Planned Loads/Shipments (whinh4180m000) session, and will replace the load and shipments of the (not yet Actual) load plan. However, if the Overrule Load Plan check box is selected in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session, the load plan is overruled, even if it is actual.

Settings for generating freight orders for warehousing order lines

Freight can generate freight orders for warehousing order lines if:

  • In the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session, the Generate Freight Order Automatically check box is selected for the warehousing order type of the order line.
  • For outbound order lines, the Generate Freight Order from Warehousing check box is selected in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session.
  • For inbound order lines, the Generate Freight Order from Warehousing check box is selected in the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session.

The values of the Generate Freight Order from Warehousing check box in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session and the Generate Freight Order from Warehousing check box in the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session are defaulted from the Generate Freight Order Automatically check box in he Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session.

Note

  • Freight orders can be generated from various originating orders, such as:

    • Sales orders
    • Purchase orders
    • Enterprise Planning orders
  • To ignore the shipment lines of a Freight load plan for an individual outbound order line, you can select the Overrule Load Plan check box in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session.
