Requirement Processing

Category	Comments
Partial Shipments	If you partially fulfill an order line for a customer who does not accept partial shipments, the system displays a warning to indicate that the order line does not allow partial shipments and the order line does not qualify for release from the Fulfillment Management system.
Inventory Commitment Preference Percent to Fill	If no service level rule is associated to the order line and the system resolves the inventory commitment preference for the order line, then the system displays the percent to fill requirement on the Fulfillment Workbench – Edit form grid. Upon updating the fulfill quantity for the order line, the system evaluates whether the fulfill quantity meets the percent to fill requirement. If the fulfill quantity does not meet the percent to fill requirement, the system displays a warning indicating the requirement has not been met and the order line does not qualify for release from the Fulfillment Management system. If you change the branch plant on the order line, the system clears the percent to fill value because the inventory commitment preference is not reevaluated and the percent to fill requirement is not valid for the selected branch plant.
Service Level Rules	If an order line is associated to both an inventory commitment preference percent to fill and a service level rule requirement, the service level rule requirement overrides the inventory commitment preference. The system does not display the associated inventory commitment percent to fill within the grid for the order line on the Fulfillment Workbench – Edit form. When updating fulfill quantity for an order line with a service level rule, the system evaluates whether the change to the fulfill quantity effects the service level rule requirements and displays corresponding warnings if requirements are not met. If the Rule Evaluation Required flag is set, the system deselects the flag. When using the Fulfillment Workbench - Edit form to revise order lines with associated order type service level rules, the first line that you select and modify alerts the system to evaluate the rule requirement. The system evaluates all order lines on the order with an associated order rule to determine whether the established requirements are met by the fulfilled quantities. The system sets warning messages regarding the order rule requirements and the line level rule requirements. If you define service level rules as custom function rules, messaging is not provided unless by the custom function. If the order contains both order level custom program and order fill percentage rules, the system overrides the order fill percentage with the order custom program and displays only the order custom function rule in both the Fulfillment Workbench – Edit and Search form grids. When you change a branch plant, the system reevaluates whether the order line qualifies for a service level rule based on the new branch plant value. If the branch plant change occurs on an order line with an associated order type rule, the system reevaluates the entire order for requirement status based on the new service level rule associated to the changed order line. If the Order and Line Rule Evaluation Requirement flags are selected, you can either deselect the flag on the order line or update its fulfill quantity to initiate processing to reevaluate the requirement met status of the line. And, for an order level type rule on the current line, reevaluate all other order line requirement statuses on the order with order level types rule association.
Free Good Line Processing	Free good line processing within the Fulfillment Workbench – Edit form is similar to sales order entry processing. The system displays the free goods lines in the same manner as both the sales order and the Service Level Rule Inquiry/Override program, the free good line is highlighted. Modification of any of the editable fields on the parent order line of free good lines in the Fulfillment Workbench – Edit form grid (except the Rule Evaluation Required flag) could cause the system to cancel the associated free good order line and create a new order line. The new order line is not visible until you close the Fulfillment Workbench – Edit form, and then access the form again.
