Note: The ***WT Shipped and Not Received*** exception identifies warehouse transfers that have been shipped and not received by the ship to warehouse.
Open WT Orders?

Select Yes to include open transfers on the report. Open transfers are currently in use, based on the signed-in operator’s initials.

If the due date was overridden on the transfer header, the transfer is an exception. Select Yes to include details of due date exceptions on the report.

Order Shipped Short?

If you run the report for the shipping warehouse, select Yes to include transfers that meet these criteria:

  • The total quantity that was shipped is less than the quantity that was ordered.
  • The transfer is in Stage 3-Shipped through Stage 6-Received.
Note: You can only short ship quantities, not values.

Select Yes to process sales order and transfer direct order ties at the line item level. If a transfer is tied to a transfer line item or sales order line item that no longer exists, it is an exception that is included on the report.

Select No to exclude the erroneous ties from the report.

Select Yes to include transfers with an overridden ARP.

Any warehouse transfer with an overridden ARP is considered an exception.

Select Yes to include lead time exceptions.

Lead time is an important factor in determining when products should be ordered and shipped.

When a lead time exception exists, review the product’s replenishment records.

Receiving unavailable quantities indicates a lack of efficiency. Shipping methods, packaging, or warehouse personnel might have caused the unavailability of the products. Review these exceptions.

Unapproved line items are considered an exception because it indicates a lack of control.
