Understanding ASN Recalculation

You can change all the calculated fields such quantities, amounts, currency, and so forth that the system displays on the ASN. Initially, the system calculates these fields when you run the EDI Advanced Ship Notice Extraction program (R47032). As the system processes the information for this program, it rolls up the calculated field values at each level break.

After you revise information and quit the Ship Notice Detail Revisions (Totals) form, the system:

  • Determines the hierarchical level that you are updating.

  • Examines the Parent and Record ID fields to identify all the level breaks that must be updated.

  • Determines whether you are adding or deleting information.

  • Rolls up all the updates to the calculated fields that are associated with each level break.

In this example, you change the Quantity field on the item record from 300 to 100 at the lowest level.
