| Dynamic cross-docking with excess inventoryThis topic explains the processing of the following when
inventory is available: After you create a cross-dock order, you can generate an
outbound advice for the remaining part of the ordered quantity (the quantity
for which cross-dock order is not generated). When you have to generate an
outbound advice for the ordered quantity of an outbound order line, you must
first cancel or partially cancel the cross-dock order. You may want to generate
an outbound advice because inventory becomes available due to the following
reasons: - Adjustment order
- Cycle counting
- Unblocking of inventory
The cross-dock order is automatically canceled (completely or
partially) only if the Cancel Cross-dock Orders when Inventory Can Be Advised parameter is selected in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session. Cross dock orders are automatically canceled or can be partially
canceled based on the inventory availablity. The possible scenarios are
explained below: When there is no inventory available, then the related
cross-dock order is not canceled. When there is inventory available for the outbound order
line and there is a related cross-dock order without cross-dock order lines,
the cross-dock order is canceled completely, if the value of the Cancel Cross-dock Orders when Inventory Can Be Advised parameter is Open Cross-dock Orders or Open and Planned Cross-dock Orders. When sufficient inventory is not available to completely
fulfill the ordered quantity, the requested cross-dock order quantity is
decreased with the quantity that is needed to make the advice
possible. When there is available inventory for an outbound order line
and there is a related cross-dock order with cross-dock order lines, the
cross-dock order is canceled partially if the value of the Cancel Cross-dock Orders when Inventory Can Be Advised parameter is Open and Planned Cross-dock Orders. When cross dock orders are canceled
partially, the requested cross-dock order quantity is decreased to a quantity
that is equal to the planned quantity of the cross-dock order. Note The
requested cross-dock order quantity cannot be decreased if it is equal to the
total quantity of the cross-dock order lines, and no outbound advice can be
generated. When the value of the Cancel Cross-dock Orders when Inventory Can Be Advised parameter is Never or Open Cross-dock Orders, the cross-dock orders are not canceled
Note LN cancels the cross dock orders when an outbound
advice is generated. The automatic cancellation is not possible for outbound
advice that are manually created or changed. | |
