Pending Return messages are used by RWMS to create and maintain Pending Returns information. Pending Returns messages represent a notification to the warehouse of merchandise that is being returned to the warehouse. These messages provide information to the warehouse about the amount of each item that is being returned.
The PendReturn To PendReturnWH TAFR takes Pend Return messages and converts these messages to PendReturnWH messages. Pend Return messages are subscribed by warehouse inventory management applications. Besides transforming the message payload formats, the TAFR must also perform routing and filtering operations to insure the message is forwarded to the correct instance of the warehouse with warehouse specific information.
This document describes the functionality of the PendReturnToPendReturnWH TAFR. This component has specific methods called to filter, translate, and route a single RIB Message node. These methods are called by the TAFR processing framework. This framework is also responsible for publishing the appropriate message nodes using a single RibMessages message to the correct output topic or topics. The framework requirements are not in scope of this document.
Facility ID requirement: It is an error for the input message to contain the facility ID not specified in the configuration file.
