Lot Functionality Supported by WMS

Lots Not in Inventory

Lot Selection Specific

If this check box is selected, the WMS can receive or ship one specific lot for an order line.

Lot Selection Same

Inventory Functionality Supported by WMS

WMS Supports Handling Unit Structure

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports the handling unit concept as defined in LN.

If this check box is cleared, no handling units can be created or generated for a WMS-controlled warehouse within LN.

Inventory Commitment

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports inventory commitment.

If this check box is cleared, this does not necessarily mean that inventory commitments are not allowed in LN. Whether inventory commitments are allowed, depends on the Generate Outbound Advice in Infor LN parameter setting.

Inventory Buffers

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports inventory buffers.

If this check box is cleared, this does not necessarily mean that inventory buffers are not allowed in LN. Whether inventory buffers are allowed, depends on the Generate Outbound Advice in Infor LN.parameter setting.

Quarantine Inventory

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports the rejected inventory concept as defined in LN.

Item Functionality Supported by WMS

Effectivity Units

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports effectivity units.

If this check box is cleared, effectivity units are not allowed on orders for WMS-controlled warehouses.

Non-physical Items

If this check box is selected, the WMS can handle non-physical items.

Inbound BOM/List Items

Indicates whether the WMS supports inventory handling by component for inbound. This means that components of a bill of material (BOM) or list item are received in a balanced way.

If this check box is cleared, inventory handling by component is not allowed on inbound order lines.

If this check box is selected, no inspections for these types of receipts can be performed.

Outbound BOM/List Items

If this check box is selected, WMS supports inventory handling by component for outbound. This means that components of a bill of material (BOM) or list item are shipped in a balanced way.

If this check box is cleared, inventory handling by component is not allowed on outbound order lines.

Manufacturer Part Numbers

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports manufacturer part numbers.

Order Specifications

Cycle Counting

Order Creation Allowed in Infor LN

Determines for which warehouses cycle counting can be generated in the session.

If this check box is selected, a cycle counting order can be created for any WMS warehouse that is within the range of warehouses for which cycle counting orders must be generated.

If this check box is cleared, you cannot manually create and process cycle counting orders for WMS-controlled warehouses.

Order Approval Allowed in Infor LN

Indicates whether cycle counting results can be approved in LN before processing.

If this check box is selected, counting results can always be approved in LN, even if the cycle counting order was created by the WMS.

If this check box is cleared, cycle counting results can only be approved by the WMS. However, cycle count orders created during the reconciliation process, must be approved in LN.

Block Inventory During Warehouse Cycle Counting

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports inventory blocking when LN creates cycle counting orders.

Shipping Constraint Usage Supported by WMS

Ship Line Complete

If this check box is selected, the WMS can force shipping complete order lines.

Ship Set Complete

If this check box is selected, the WMS can force shipping complete sets of order lines.

Ship Order Complete

If this check box is selected, the WMS can force shipping complete orders.

Unit is Binding

If this check box is selected, LN can force the WMS to ship specific units.

Reconciliation

Reason

Indicates the reason that must be used for registering reconciliation results in LN. The reason code, which must be of type Cycle Counting, is shown in the Cycle Counting Order Lines (whinh5101m000) session.

Order Creation Allowed in Infor LN

Determines whether reconciliation orders can be generated.

If this check box is selected, the Reconciliation check box in the Generate Cycle Counting Orders (whinh5200m000) session will be available.

If this check box is cleared, WMS-controlled warehouses are skipped.

Order Type Functionality Supported by WMS

Collect Orders

If this check box is selected, the WMS can handle collect orders.

Cross-docking

If this check box is selected, the WMS supports the cross-docking concept as defined in LN.

If this check box is cleared, no cross-dock orders can be created or generated for a WMS-controlled warehouse within LN.

WMS Process

WMS Process

WMS Supports Same Item on Multiple Inbound Order Lines

If this check box is selected, the WMS can handle multiple inbound lines for the same item within one advance shipment notice.

Note:  Infor Warehouse Management Module cannot handle multiple inbound lines for the same item within one ASN. This means that during receiving in Infor Warehouse Management Module, using RF, only the first line containing the specified item is updated. Other lines containing the same item are ignored. This results in an overdelivery for the first line and back orders for the other lines.

Receipts Creation Allowed in Infor LN

If this check box is selected, receipts can be created in LN for WMS-related order lines that are sent to the WMS.

If this check box is cleared, you cannot link order lines to a receipt for a WMS-controlled warehouse. However, if order lines contain non-physical items and the Non-physical Items check box is cleared also, you can still link these specific order lines to a receipt for a WMS-controlled warehouse.

WMS Supports Minimum Tolerance when Receiving

If this check box is selected, the WMS can handle minimum tolerance constraints during receiving.

Note:  Infor Warehouse Management Module cannot handle minimum tolerance constraints during receiving.. As a result, final receipt can only be set in LN automatically if the received quantity is greater than or equal to the ordered quantity.

Generate Outbound Advice in Infor LN

If this check box is selected, LN generates and sends outbound advice to the WMS instead of just sending outbound order lines.

Integrations Supported by WMS

Freight Management

If this check box is selected, the WMS can work together with LN Freight .

If this check box is cleared, no freight orders can be created for order lines related to a WMS-controlled warehouse.

Quality Management

If this check box is selected, the WMS can work together with LN Quality .

Reasons

Receipt Correction

Indicates the reason that must be used for the creation of adjustment orders due to receipt corrections.

Note: Reasons for which approval is required are unavailable in the zoom session. This is because approvals would interrupt the automatic processing of adjustments.

Inspection Change

Indicates the reason that must be used for the creation of adjustment orders due to rejections for inspections that could not be created anymore in LN.

This can apply to, for example, receipts for production orders that do not require inspections in LN, but are inspected in Infor Warehouse Management Module instead.

Note: Reasons for which approval is required are unavailable in the zoom session. This is because approvals would interrupt the automatic processing of adjustments.

Load Plan Deviation

Indicates the reason that must be used for the creation of adjustment orders due to load plan deviations that could not be created anymore in LN.

Note: Reasons for which approval is required are unavailable in the zoom session. This is because approvals would interrupt the automatic processing of adjustments.
