Cross-dock order priority

LN assigns a priority to the cross-dock orders for an item. This priority indicates in which order cross-dock order lines must be generated for the cross-dock orders. First, cross-dock order lines will be created for cross-dock orders that have the highest priority. Next, the cross-dock order lines for cross-dock orders with subsequent priority will be generated.

The priority of a cross-dock order is determined by the user priority and the system priority which, in turn, is based on the cross-dock order priority definition.

Example 1

If, in the Cross-dock Order Priorities (whinh6121m000) session, the following priorities have been defined:

Priority Field Field Value Sorting
10 Planned Delivery Date/Time - Ascending
20 Order Priority - Ascending

...and three cross-dock orders are created for outbound order lines A, B and C, the system priority will be as follows:

Outbound Order Planned Delivery Date Order Priority System Priority
A April 11th 2006 05:00:00 PM 80 1
B April 12th 2006 05:00:00 PM 9999 3
C April 12th 2006 05:00:00 PM 100 2

Example 2

If, in the Cross-dock Order Priorities (whinh6121m000) session, the following priorities have been defined:

Priority Field Field Value Sorting
1 Order Origin Sales Not Applicable
2 Order Origin Service Not Applicable
3 Order Origin JSC Production Not Applicable

...and three cross-dock orders are created for outbound order lines A, B and C, the system priority will be as follows:

Outbound Order Order Origin System Priority
A Sales 1
B Sales Schedule 3
C JSC Production 2

Example 3

If user priorities are added to Example 1, the resulting cross-dock order priority will be as follows:

Outbound Order Planned Delivery Date Order Priority System Priority User Priority Cross-dock Order Priority
A April 11th 2006 05:00:00 PM 80 1 2 3
B April 12th 2006 05:00:00 PM 9999 3 1 2
C April 12th 2006 05:00:00 PM 100 2 1 1
