Post-allocation validation

If validation has been enabled, the application works through the steps below to identify and process the appropriate validations. All of these steps are complete after allocation has taken place to ensure that all lines are allocated.

  • First, the application searches for any routines to be run in which the Customer, Owner, and Item fields are all populated. If the routine is defined and enabled, the application runs the validation and completes the process.
  • If the above conditions were not met, the application searches for any routines to be run in which the Customer, Owner, and Item fields are all blank. If the routine is defined and is enabled, the application runs the validation and completes the process.
  • If the validation fails (all detail line items on the order have not allocated), a Validation Failed message displays on either the workstation or RF device you are using. Any allocations that have been completed are reversed, with the pick details deleted, and the inventory records updated.
  • If the above searches are unsuccessful, there are no Post-allocation validations.
Note: 
  • Post-allocation validation runs after any substitution checks for the detail order line.
  • The only edit allowed to the default Post-allocation validation routine is to enable or disable the validation.
  • Shelf life validations do not take place with Post-allocation validation.
