| Generate Outbound Advice (whinh4201m000) Use this session to generate outbound advice. You can
also print outbound advice, shortage list, or labels by advice or unit. You can
view the outbound advice in the Outbound Advice (whinh4525m000) session. Note You can select a range of orders or select specific
orders to be processed: - To select specific orders, click Specific Order Selection. The Specific Order Selection (whinh2800m000) session is started in which you can select
up to ten orders.
- To process another selection of orders, click Reset Selection. As a result, LN removes the
selection you made in the Specific Order Selection (whinh2800m000) session.
- To make a new specific selection, click Specific Order Selection.
Shipping Selection Range Run A code assigned to a group of warehousing order lines when they
are advised. LN assigns
or generates a run number if a user does not manually enter or select a run
number while he generates inbound or outbound advice for a group of warehousing
order lines. This is the case if, for example, a user generates outbound advice
by means of the Generate Advice command in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session. LN assigns run numbers
by user. For example, all inbound advice generated by user A on a particular
day obtain a particular run number, and those generated by user B obtain
another run number. For outbound movements, the user can release outbound
advice, generate picking lists, and confirm picking lists by run. For inbound
movements, the user can generate storage lists and confirm storage lists by
run. Note If you select a run assigned to not fully processed
outbound advice, while in the Run (whinh4100s000) session, the Always Allow Reuse check box is cleared, a dialog box
appears prompting you to select one of the following: - No to
skip this run.
- Yes to reuse this run for the current instance.
- Always Allow Reuse to always allow reuse of this run.
The latter option results in automatic
selection of the Always Allow Reuse check box in the Run (whinh4100s000) session. Overwrite Selection Range If this check box is selected, the set of
warehousing-order lines identified by the run number will overwrite any user-defined selection range. Options Create Cross-dock Orders If this check box is selected, LN will generate a cross-dock order for any outbound advice shortage. The cross-dock order's requested
quantity will be equal to the inventory shortage. Handle Alternative Items If this check box is selected, and the requested item
is not available and an alternative material has been defined in the bill of material (BOM), LN releases an alternative material. This check box is hidden if the Alternative Materials check box in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session is cleared. Create Outbound Advice Despite Inventory Shortage If this check box is selected, LN generates outbound
advice even if insufficient inventory is available. If the Negative Inventory check box in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session is cleared, this check box is
unavailable. Outbound advice for negative inventory is created for
items within the selection range for which the setting of the Allow Negative Inventory field in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2510m000) session allows outbound advice for negative
inventory. Note If this check box is cleared, you can still manually
create outbound advice through the Outbound Advice (whinh4525m000) session in case of inventory shortage. Recalculate Excess and ATT Inventory If this check box is selected, LN recalculates the available excess inventory and the inventory available to transfer (ATT). Note This field is visible only if the Project Pegging functionality is
implemented. Print Advice If this check box is selected, LN prints the outbound
advice after being generated. Shortage If this check box is selected, LN prints a shortage
list for any items that cannot be allocated. Project Cost Peg Transfers If this check box is selected, LN prints the data of the cost peg transfers that are created during
the creation of outbound advice. Note This field is visible only if the Project Pegging functionality is
implemented. Ownership If this check box is selected, the ownership of the goods listed on the storage list is
printed. Item/Item Group Storage Conditions If this check box is selected, LN prints the Item/Item Group Storage Conditions on
documents/reports that are printed for the outbound procedure. Warehouse/Location Storage Conditions If this check box is selected, LN prints the Warehouse/Location Storage Conditions on
documents/reports that are printed for the outbound procedure. Print to predefined Device If this check box is selected, the application selects a default printer to
print the report or document. The use of default printers depends on the setup. For more information, refer to Default printers. Note By default, this check box is selected. Sort by Sort by Indicate how the data on the outbound advice you generate,
is sorted. Allowed values: - Order
- Source Location
- Location Outbound Priority
- Staging Location
- Order Set
- Shipment Reference
- Customer Order
Label Printing Printing Labels The print options for the labels. Allowed values: - No: No labels are printed in the outbound
advice.
- According Order Settings: LN prints the outbound advice based on the order settings.
- Overrule Order Settings: LN overrules the order
settings and enables the options to print the labels manually.
Label Printing Settings Label Printed by LN allows you to specify the application that must be used to print the labels for
the defined layout. Note You can view this field only if packaging level BOD is
implemented. Default value of this field is Infor LN. The value External application is not applicable when the packaging label BOD is not
implemented. Label Layout The code of the layout according to which the label must be
printed. You must specify a label layout if, in the Label Printing Method, you selected one of the
following options: Copies The number of copies of the label to be printed. Handling Units Only If this check box is selected, the labels are printed only for the items that
use handling units. Label Printing Method The method of printing the labels on the outbound
advice: - By Line: Labels are printed by line.
- By Unit: Labels are printed for each unit on the
line.
Advice Log Advice Log Indicate whether and what kind of an outbound advice log
must be created. In the outbound advice log, you can
view the decisions made while LN generates the outbound advice. You can use the outbound advice
log to trace, for example, why a shortage for the item is reported or why you
get other inventory advised than expected. You can view the outbound advice log in
the Outbound Advice Log (whinh3526m000) session. To start the Outbound Advice Log (whinh3526m000) session, in the current session, click Advice Log. Outbound advice log Order Selection Range Shipment Reference The From and To fields define a range of: Shipment Reference for which the outbound advice is
generated. Include Return Orders If this check box is selected, outbound advice is also
generated for any return orders in the
selection range. Include Return Rejects If this check box is selected, purchase return orders meeting specific conditions are included. These conditions are: - Present in the selection range
- Issued from quarantine
- The order lines contain items whose disposition is set to Return to Vendor.
By default, this check box is cleared. Committed Inventory Only If this check box is selected, outbound advice is only
generated or released for the committed inventory present for the order lines
present in the selection range. If inventory commitments do not apply to the order lines,
outbound advice is based on the ordered quantity. If inventory commitments
apply to the order lines, but no committed inventory is present, no outbound
advice is generated. Rush Orders only If this check box is selected, outbound advice is only
generated for any rush orders in the selection range. Projected Shipments Projected Shipments If this check box is selected, you can specify the range of projected
shipments for which outbound advices must be processed. Note You can view this field only if Projected Shipments in use check box is selected in Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session. Load The From and To fields define a range of: projected loads. Shipment The From and To fields define a range of: projected shipments. DMS Items Apply DMS If this check box is cleared, standard outbound advice
functionality will apply to DMS items. If this check box is selected, LN will apply direct material supply (DMS) to the items. If DMS Items is set to Only, all
ranges in the session will be unavailable except for the item and warehouse
ranges. If DMS Items is set to Included, all ranges in the session will be
available. Note - In the latter case, any change in ranges applied by the
user can affect the result of DMS on Inventory. For example, if the planned delivery date range is
changed, high-priority demand might be excluded from the outbound advice run,
and lower-priority demand is met first.
- The warehouse range is also taken into account for DMS on Inventory.
- DMS will only be performed for the warehouses that are
defined as supply warehouses in the Warehouse Supply Structure Relationships (whinh6141m000) session.
Load Plan Load Plan If this check box is selected, outbound advice is
generated based on the outbound order lines linked to the selected loads and
shipments. Print Errors If this check box is selected, LN prints the errors
that occur when outbound advice is generated and released based on the load
plan. Cluster Cluster If this check box is selected, outbound advice is
generated or released based on freight order clusters. Outbound advice is generated or released for the
outbound order lines related to the freight order clusters selected in the
cluster range fields. The cluster of an outbound order line is retrieved from
the freight order line of the outbound order line. The planned quantities of the outbound order lines are
decreased to the planned quantity of the freight order cluster lines if the
quantities of the cluster lines are lower than the quantities of the outbound
order lines. Outbound advice is only generated or released for
clusters with status Actual or Subcontracted. Note If this check box is selected, the fields in the Load Plan group box are unavailable. You can generate or release outbound
advice based on load plans, freight order clusters, or neither of these
options. Ordering Order by Planned Delivery Date If this check box is selected, the orders are processed
in the sequence determined by the planned delivery date/time of the outbound-order line. If this check box is cleared, the
orders are processed in the sequence as specified in the order-type priority
fields. Order Origin The priority for processing outbound advice. Include If this check box is selected, an outbound advice is
generated for warehousing orders with this order origin. | |
