Chapter 65: Working with Drop Ship Errors (WDSE)

Purpose: Use this menu option to review drop ship transaction records passed to or received from CWCollaborate or Locate’s Supplier Direct Fulfillment module that are in error in the Drop Ship Transaction file (FLCSFT).

A drop ship transaction record received through the CWCollaborate Interface or Locate Supplier Direct Fulfillment Interface is in error status if the system cannot identify the record, for example:

• A shipment confirmation for a purchase order or purchase order line which does not exist

• A status update such as a revised expected delivery date or a hold on a purchase order or purchase order line which does not exist

• A return for an invalid return authorization, purchase order, or purchase order line number.

Return errors: Errors related to return information passed to or received from CWCollaborate also display in the Work with Return Interface Errors (WRIE) menu option. The Locate drop ship interface does not support returns.

A/P invoice errors: Errors related to A/P invoices uploaded from CWCollaborate or Locate also display at the Work with A/P Invoice Upload Screen. See Working with A/P Invoice Upload Errors (WAPU).

Deleting Drop Ship Transaction records: You can use this menu option to delete records in error status from the Drop Ship Transaction file (FLCSFT).

The screen sorts by date, time, type of error message, PO number, and PO sequence number. You can search for a record by entering the date and time it was created in the Drop Ship Transaction file.

How to display this screen: Enter WDSE in the Fast path field at the top of any menu or select Work with CDC Drop Ship Errors from a menu.
