Activities by Outbound Order Line (whinh2124m000)

Use this session to view and maintain activities for outbound order lines.

LN has copied the activities listed in this session from the Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session. The Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session lists the warehousing procedure of the warehousing order header to which the current outbound order line belongs, except for the settings of the Applicable and Automatic check boxes.

If the user changed the settings of the Applicable and Automatic fields in the Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session, these settings are copied to this session. Otherwise, LN has changed the default settings from the Activities by Warehousing Order (whinh2104m000) session into the settings described in Default values for order line activities. The settings that you adjust in this session apply only to the selected inbound order line.

Note: If the VMI functionality is implemented, the setting of the Inventory Management check box in the Warehouses (whwmd2500m000) session can affect the availability of various activities for warehouses.

Performance aspects

Keeping warehousing order line activities in your system after the warehousing order is closed results in considerable data growth. If you do not want to remove warehousing orders with status Closed, an alternative way to reduce the number of records in your system is to remove the order line activities of closed orders. To do this, in the Remove Warehousing Orders (whinh2250m000) session, select the Line Activities of Closed Orders check box. For further information, see Remove order line activities of closed orders.
