Handling units and disposition lines

If handling units are present in quarantine, you can process or specify dispositions for the handling units or the entire quarantine ID. You cannot handle individual disposition lines, because a disposition line can be related to a part of a handling unit and processing a part of a handling unit is not allowed.

If you specify a disposition for a handling unit, the related disposition lines are updated. If the handling unit is a bottom level handling unit within a structure and covers part of a disposition line, the disposition line is split. A new disposition line is created with the quantity of the handling unit for which the disposition was specified.

Example

Handling units HU01, HU02, and HU03 are present for Quarantine ID 100011. HU01 is the top level handling unit, and handling units HU02 and HU03 are the bottom-level handling units in the structure. Handling units HU02 and HU03 each have a quantity of 10.

These handling units correspond with disposition line 100011/10, which has a quantity of 20.

If HU03 is given disposition Scrap, a new disposition line is created with quantity 10 = Scrap. The old disposition line still has Awaiting Disposition, but now with a quantity of 10.

If you reset HU01, handling units HU02 and HU03 obtain disposition Awaiting Disposition again. As a result, both disposition lines would obtain disposition Awaiting Disposition. Because both disposition lines would have identical dispositions and stock point details, these lines are consolidated into one disposition line, thus re-establishing the previous situation.
