How to modify warehousing proceduresBy default, to process the order lines of warehousing orders of a particular warehousing order type, LN uses the warehousing procedure linked to the warehousing order type. For individual warehousing orders of this order type, you can adjust this default warehousing procedure. As a result, the adjusted procedure applies to the inbound and/or outbound order lines of the warehousing order. You can also adjust the warehousing procedure for an individual inbound or outbound order line. Therefore, you can modify warehousing procedures on the following levels:
Procedure level On procedure level, you can change the default warehousing procedure for warehousing orders of a particular warehousing order type. In the Activities by Procedure (whinh0106m000) session, you can perform the following changes for a default warehousing procedure:
The changes to the activities become effective for the order lines of warehousing orders that have the same order type as the order type to which the procedure is linked and that are created after the changes of the procedure are saved. These orders are either manually created or generated from orders originating from other packages. Warehousing orders currently processed by means of the procedure are not affected by the changes. To change the activities of a procedure on procedure level, proceed as follows:
Warehousing order level On warehousing order level, you can change the default warehousing procedure for an individual warehousing order. If a new warehousing order is manually created or automatically generated from an order of another package, the default warehousing procedure linked to the warehousing order type of the new warehousing order is copied to the Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session. In the Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session, you can adjust the activities for the selected order. To adjust the default warehousing procedure for an individual warehousing order, proceed as follows:
As a result, the adjusted warehousing procedure applies to the inbound and/or outbound order lines of the selected warehousing order (transfer orders include both inbound and outbound order lines), except for order lines that:
See the next section on how to create and adjust activities for inbound or outbound order lines. Note If you change an originating order of a warehousing order, LN deletes the warehousing order or order line and replaces the order or order line with a new order or order line that includes the changes made for the originating order. Consequently, the activities for the deleted warehousing order are deleted as well and replaced with the default procedure, thus erasing any changes made to the activities. Inbound and outbound order line level On order line level, you can adjust or delete the activities of the warehousing procedure of the order header. Adjust the activities of the warehousing procedure for
individual order lines For an individual inbound or outbound order line, you can adjust the warehousing procedure of the order header to which the order line belongs. If you adjust the procedure for an order line, the warehousing procedure of the order header is copied from the Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session to the Activities by Inbound Order Line (whinh2114m000) session for inbound order lines and the Activities by Outbound Order Line (whinh2124m000) session for outbound order lines. In these sessions, you can adjust the activities to meet the order processing requirements for the selected order line. In the Activities by Inbound Order Line (whinh2114m000) session, you can adjust the activities for individual inbound order lines. In the Activities by Outbound Order Line (whinh2124m000) session, you can adjust the activities for outbound order lines. Inbound order lines To adjust the warehousing procedure for an individual inbound order line, proceed as follows:
Outbound order lines To adjust the warehousing procedure for an individual outbound order line, proceed as follows:
Note You can adjust both the outbound and the shipment procedure, because in this session the activities for both the outbound and the shipment procedures are displayed, if a shipment procedure is linked to the warehousing order type of the warehousing order header. Essentially, you can change the settings of the Automatic, Applicable, and Output Device fields for an activity of an inbound or outbound order line as long as the activity is not being carried out, which is indicated by the status of the related inbound or outbound order line. However, there are various conditions that determine whether you can change the settings of these fields, and which settings you can change. For further information, see To modify activities by order line. Note If you change an originating order of a warehousing order, LN deletes the warehousing order or order line and replaces the order or order line with a new order or order line that includes the changes made for the originating order. Consequently, the activities for the deleted warehousing order are deleted as well and replaced with the default procedure, thus erasing any changes made to the activities. Delete the activities of the warehousing procedure for
individual order lines You can delete the activities of the warehousing procedure of an inbound or outbound order line as long as the activity is not in progress. To delete the warehousing procedure for an individual order line, proceed as follows:
