Kanban and Replenishment Transactions

To support tight integration between kanban and replenishment transactions, the software must retain a relationship between the physical status of the kanban and any resulting transactions in the software. The relationship exists between the kanban and replenishment transaction so that, when the status of the kanban changes, the system is updated accordingly.

For example, when a kanban of source type 1 is checked out, the system generates the associated work order to replenish the kanban. To increase the integration between kanbans and the orders that they generate, you can process the completion transaction for the kanban from the related order completion or receipt program. For example, you can perform a completion transaction for a work order kanban by using the Work Order Completions program (P31114).

This functionality only applies to two-phase kanbans.
