Shipment Notice Lines (whinh3101m000)

Use this session to view and maintain advance shipment notice lines. ASN lines contain information about orders that are about to arrive, such as items, quantities, and packaging. ASN lines can refer to orders to be delivered to your warehouse, direct delivery orders, or project delivery orders to be delivered to a project location.

Stock point details in ASN lines

If an ASN includes information on lot or serialized items for which the low volume scenario is used, the stock point details are either consolidated in the Shipment Notice Line Stock Point Details (whinh3105m000) session, or an ASN line is created for each individual serialized item or other stock point detail.

This depends on the contents of the outgoing and the incoming ASN messages. The contents of the outgoing message for the shipment is copied to the incoming ASN message. If the outgoing ASN message contains consolidated low volume lot or serial information, this information is copied to the incoming ASN message. The consolidated low volume lot or serial information is converted to a single ASN line, and the stock point details are displayed in the Shipment Notice Line Stock Point Details (whinh3105m000) session.

If the outgoing or incoming ASN messages do not contain consolidated lot or serial information, a separate ASN line is created for each lot or each individual serial number.

The Consolidate Stock Points in one Shipment Line check box in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session determines whether the stock point details are consolidated in the outgoing shipment and the outgoing ASN message.

If the ASN includes information on lot or serialized items for which the high volume scenario is used, LN creates an ASN line for each order line of the order to which the ASN refers. The serial numbers are listed in the Shipment Notice Line Stock Point Details (whinh3105m000) session for each ASN line.

Manually created ASNs

If you manually create an ASN and ASN line, you must link an order line to the ASN line. You can link expected order lines, direct delivery order lines, or order lines for projects without warehouses to a manually created ASN line. To link an order line to a manually created ASN line, in this session, proceed as follows:

Expected order lines

  1. Select the Search for Item check box. As a result, the Item field becomes available.
  2. In the Item field, zoom to the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) session to select the item for the order line that you want to link to the ASN line. As a result, you can select an expected order line based on the item you just entered in this field and the ship-from business partner entered for the current ASN line.
  3. In the Order Line field, zoom to the Expected Order Lines (whinh3820m000) session to select the expected order line that you want to link to the ASN line.

Direct delivery order lines

  1. Select the Search for Direct Delivery check box. As a result, in the Order Line field you can select a direct delivery line for the ship-from business partner of the current ASN line.
  2. In the Order Line field, zoom to the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session to select the direct delivery line that you want to link to the ASN line. For this purpose, the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session only displays direct delivery lines.

Order lines for projects without warehouses

  1. Select the Search for Lines with Infor LN Project without Warehouse check box. As a result, in the Order Line field you can select a project delivery line for the ship-from business partner of the current ASN line.
  2. In the Order Line field, zoom to the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session to select the project delivery line that you want to link to the ASN line. For this purpose, the Purchase Order Lines Monitor (tdpur4501m500) session only displays project delivery lines.
Note: You can link multiple expected order lines to an advance shipping notice using the Expected Order Lines (whinh3820m000)) session. To access this session, click New on the appropriate menu.
