- Quantities
-
- Ordered Quantity
-
The planned issue quantity. This is the total quantity of the corresponding outbound order line.
- Projected Quantity

-
The quantity of items picked for the shipment line.
If the Warehouse Inspections Overview (whinh3122m000) session is part of the outbound procedure, the items must be inspected before you can ship them. During inspections, items can be rejected. The rejection of items causes a difference between the Picked Quantity on the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session and the Picked Quantity on the Shipment Lines (whinh4131m000) session. So, if the Warehouse Inspections Overview (whinh3122m000) session is part of the outbound procedure, the quantity in the current field is the approved picked quantity.
Example
You have an outbound order line with picked quantity 50. You approve 49 items and reject 1 item in the Warehouse Inspections Overview (whinh3122m000) session. This results in the following:
- The picked quantity on the Shipment Lines (whinh4131m000) session becomes 49.
- The approved quantity on the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session becomes 49.
- The rejected quantity on the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session becomes 1.
If the Warehouse Inspections Overview (whinh3122m000) session is not part of the outbound procedure, the Picked Quantity on the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session and the Picked Quantity on the Shipment Lines (whinh4131m000) session are the same.
- Shipped Quantity
-
The actual quantity of goods on the shipment.
The default Shipped Quantity is equal to the Picked Quantity.
If the shipment line is not yet confirmed, you can manually decrease the Shipped Quantity. If you decrease the Shipped Quantity, LN increases the Not Shipped Quantity in the current session and the Expected Not Shipped Quantity in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session.

The retrieved KANBAN number is available in the Reference field of the respective sessions. A handling unit can be generated for the shipment line.
-
Passing Routing Codes (Transportation Codes)
The reference can pass, for example, Routing Codes, also called Transportation Codes, to and from the customer and supplier through labels, documents, and messages. Routing codes are used by customers for internal distribution purposes. A routing code can be stored in the Sales Schedule Lines (tdsls3107m000) session, after which it is transferred to the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000), Shipment Lines (whinh4131m000), and the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) sessions. The retrieved routing code is then available in the Reference field of the respective sessions. A handling unit can be generated for the shipment line.
