Set and reset handling units to not shipped

You can set an entire handling unit or a part of a handling unit to Not Shipped if the handling unit status is Staged.

To set an entire handling unit to Not Shipped, select Set Not Shipped from the Execute Outbound submenu of the appropriate menu in the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session.

Alternatively, in the handling unit tree, select the handling unit that must not be shipped and on the toolbar, select Set Not Shipped.

If the handling unit that is set to not shipped is linked to multiple shipment lines, the shipment lines are updated.

To set part of a handling unit to Not Shipped, use the Handling Unit Stock Point Details (whwmd5136m000) session. This session is started from the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session or the handling unit tree.

In the handling unit tree, the staged quantity is adjusted for the handling unit. If part of a handling unit structure, the handling unit is unlinked from the structure. In the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session, the staged quantity is adjusted for the parent handling unit.

When a part of the handling unit is not shipped, you can generate a new outbound advice for the same shipment line. The bottom level handling unit that is partially not-shipped, is filled up based on the fill-up criteria. As a result, the handling unit stock point details display a quantity greater than the total handling unit quantity.

If the not-shipped quantity is reset, the bottom-level handling unit quantities exceed the maximum handling unit template quantity. If this is not desired, you must regenerate the handling unit structure for the related shipment line.

In the handling unit tree and the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session, the staged (=shipped) quantity is adjusted for the handling unit and the parent handling unit. The not shipped quantity of the handling unit is also displayed in the Expected Not Shipped field of the Handling Unit Process Outbound (whinh2123m000) session.

A not-shipped handling unit that contains multiple stock points is set to Closed when the linked shipment is confirmed. The items are put back into inventory. This is because handling units in inventory are not allowed to contain multiple stock points.

If the handling unit is Not Shipped, either fully or partially, you can reset the not-shipped quantity. The Not Shipped quantity is reset to 0 (zero) in the Expected Not Shipped field of the Handling Unit Process Outbound (whinh2123m000) session. The related shipment line is updated accordingly.

To reset entire handling units, select Reset Not Shipped from the Execute Outbound submenu of the appropriate menu in the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session.
