Packing Non-Serialized Loose Items into a New Pack
You can pack non-serialized loose items into a newly created pack. To do this task, you can:
• Enter a booked serial ID.
• Enter a new existing serial ID.
• Enter a serial ID that does not exist.
• Leave serial ID blank.
When you enter a booked, blank, or nonexistent serial ID, you are required to enter the pack code. When you enter a nonexistent serial ID, the system validates the number range by site, location, lot/serial, reference, and other data.
For non-serialized loose inventory, you leave the Child Serial ID field blank; then, enter item, site, location, lot/serial, and reference data. When the parent pack is booked, the system displays the item for which the parent pack is booked. You cannot edit the item number. The system defaults the SO line when there is pending picked inventory in the pre-shipper/shipper and matching items.
When you leave the parent serial ID blank and the SO (or customer scheduled order) line does not have a booked serial ID, the system generates a serial ID based on:
• Site (ship-from)
• Address (ship-to)
• Transaction type (ISS-SO)
• Item (Blank) and pack code
When the parent serial ID is blank and the sales order line has a booked serial ID, the system obtains the serial ID from a booked pool of serial IDs. The system validates that the SO line has the same ship-from and ship-to as the pre-shipper/shipper, and the same item as the entered item. The system validates sufficient inventory and displays a warning when not based on your over-issue settings. The system records picking information at the unit pack level and builds loose inventory to the unit pack.
