I'm trying to fulfil a transfer order, when i goto my line items and enter a quantity it immediately blanks the box out and unticks the fulfil box, then stops me from re-ticking it... any ideas?

might be an accounting preference @Paul_s

<!channel> Does anyone have any experience with either DSI Global or HighJump?

We use HighJump for EDI and Accellos (now owned by HighJump) for our WMS

Hi all, does anyone know whether the Items on a Sales Order become uncommitted if they are in Pending Fulfillment status of the order?

@neerajrtiwari if they're in a SO in Pending Fulfillment, and there's a fulfillment order line, they will be committed/allocated. Are you trying to uncommit them or close the order?

@Torin Actually, we have a SO approval workflow in system which gets triggered based on some criteria. Our sales team are complaining that the item's commited quantity reduces by the time the SO gets approved. So for e.g., if they put in item 1 quantity as 10 before approval; but by the time the SO gets approved only 4 quantity remains for that item. We are trying to avoid this.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Our sales team puts orders directly into pending fulfillment which allocates the quantities immediately for us. I'm not familiar with any solution for items being committed while on pending approval unfortunately.

@Torin Got it. No worries. Thanks for your response!

I have an item assigned to a pick face with sufficient inventory but our waves are sending us to the reserve location. Pick sequence is first for the pick face. Any other ideas to check?

Let me know if you find a great solution @Torin - We allow wholesale customers to place PREORDERs for products months before we receive them and always run into the issue of some of these customers not paying and therefore 'holding' committed inventory - which then needs released and reallocated... The alternative is messy as well not being able to easily see qtys of items on SOs to place reorders and clearly be able to see demand. If anyone else has fought and slayed this beast, would be open to ideas.

@markus.99 We had to create a custom page via scripting to show actual stock levels including uncommitted on orders, pending approvals etc. it's the only real solution we have found so far.

Hey everyone. One of the options for committing items to orders is “commit based on expected ship date.” We want this option but we do have any fields called expected ship date and it doesn’t work for us based on the ship date. Do you have to have something else turned on in order to have this option work?

Believe that date is on the sales order @laurend

That’s where I thought it would be, but we don’t have the field as an option on the form (I’m in the customize transaction form)

@User uploaded a file:

Sales Order->Shipping Tab->`shipdate`

Yeah, we use that field, but it is still committing based on the transaction date even though we have the accounting preference set to expected ship date. That’s why I wasn’t sure if there was another field actually called expected ship date.

we currently sell stock many months before it necessarily comes into stock in our WH, we do this the usual way with a Transfer Order from the manufacturer to our WH. in a few cases the stock won't be coming to our WH and essentially needs to a sit in a virtual warehouse on the boat that it is on and we sell from that location. the team don't want to be going back and editing the original Transfer Orders and then creating new ones to the boat location, does anyone have any ideas for a cleaner solution than just doing inventory transfers between the WH and the boat?

@paul, I am wondering why you don't create a SO with backordered item, then once the boat comes in, receive the inventory and fulfill it like normal?

@nzaleski once we have our products assembled they are instantly put onto a transfer order to our main WH, if we were just to put a SO on for the other location, when the TO is fulfilled we would have over inflated stock in the WH.

Does anyone have experience transitioning to serialized inventory for products sold? After some preliminary research, it sounds like it's going to be arduous.

Follow up on the above ^ it is a huge pain and it's one of those instances where NS really screws you over

If you need to start serializing your products, you have to create all new SKUs

Does anyone here deal with sending parts out to 3rd parties for work, then receiving them back where they go into an end product?

@tryingtodosomestuff Depends on what you are trying to accomplish, I have heard people recording the serialized numbers on the item fulfillment only to keep track of when the item is fulfilled. If that's the case you can do a soft lock and update the historical information without needing a new item record

@rayshieh Thanks for response. I've decided that putting the WO# on the physical product is enough "serialization" for us.

sort of an odd issue i'm having a hard time figuring out...i'm creating an inventory adjustment, and i have the proper subsidiary, item and location selected...however when i go to adjust out the small value that is left in a given lot/serial number, it doesn't list the serial number as available to be adjusted

similar items, in a different location, have no such issue, but i can't determine what about this location is causing the problem

@al3xicon Hi Alex. could it be that the original item was received on a special order PO? SuiteAnswers 62889 talks about that.
