Unconfirm/Undo Shippers

• Unconfirm reverses most actions performed by the system at confirmation.

Allows it to be modified, canceled, reprinted, and reconfirmed later

• Undo reverses the shipper number assignment done through Pre-Shipper/Shipper Print (7.9.4).

Selection of the shipper must be permitted by both site and inventory movement security.

The effective date must be in a valid open fiscal period for all entities, with inventory affected by the confirmed shipper.

Sites and locations where the inventory was issued from must still exist.

• When you unconfirm a shipper, the system performs the following actions:

Creates IC and SO general ledger (GL) transactions, reversing the GL transactions

Reverses modifications to sales order fields updated at confirmation, including line item quantities, calculated freight charges included in the price, and schedule details

Updates the Materials Requirement Plan (MRP) to reflect items returned to inventory

Creates reversing entries to Global Tax Management History

Warning Some actions performed during or after unconfirm are not reversible.

• Unconfirm does not fully populate all fields of re-created location and lot/serial records.

If such information is required (for example, if the unconfirmed shipper is not intended to be reconfirmed), enter the information manually.

• Unconfirm does not fully reverse changes to GL average costs for line items.

After the original confirmation, average costs could have been changed and recorded in various other irreversible transactions (for example, if other receipts or issues were made in that time period).

• Unconfirm does not reverse trailer amounts entered or modified during or following the original confirmation.

• Unconfirm does not reverse the issue of any invoice numbers assigned during or following the original confirmation.

You can edit the invoice number manually using Pending Invoice Maintenance (7.13.1).

• Reverses the shipper number assignment done through Pre-Shipper/Shipper Print (7.9.4).

If you accidentally assign shipper numbers to picklists, you can use this function to undo the shipper number assignment.

Restore the original picklist number, and change the type of the document from shipper to picklist again.

You can reverse the shipper number assignment for unconfirmed shippers only.

Important: You must have completed all the setup exercises before you can work on the processing exercises.

Print the Sales Pre-Shippers and Assign the Shipper Numbers

When you use Pre-Shipper/Shipper Print (7.9.4) to print a pre-shipper, you can convert it to a shipper by specifying that the system assigns the shipper number.

1 Select the pre-shipper you created in the previous exercise by entering the following fields.


Field	Data	Field	Data
Ship-From	10-300	To	10-300
Ship-To/Dock	10C1000	To	10C1000
Number	[Pre-shipper Number]	To	[Pre-Shipper Number]

2 Enter the remaining key fields as follows, allowing the other fields to default.


Field	Data
Print Pre-Shippers/Shippers	Pre-Shipper
Assign Shipper Number	Yes
Include Printed Pre-Shippers/Shippers	Yes

3 Direct your output to PAGE.

4 After the shipper is printed, the system prompts you to indicate whether the documents have printed correctly. If they have, click Yes. If you enter No, the shippers are not flagged as printed and are returned to pre-shipper status.

(Record Shipper Number Assigned:) ______________________

Once the pre-shippers have been printed and converted to shippers, you can confirm them.

5 Use Pre-Shipper/Shipper Confirm (7.9.5) to confirm the shipper you created.


Field	Data
Ship-From	10-300
Pre-Shipper/Shipper	Shipper
Number	[The assigned shipper number]
Ship-To/Dock	10C1000
Post Invoice	Yes
Consolidate Invoices	No

When the system prompts you to indicate whether all the information is correct, enter Yes to confirm the shipper, if appropriate. Print the invoice.

6 Use Bill of Lading Print (7.9.12.1) to print a bill of lading for the shipper you have confirmed.
