Scenario 4: No Consolidation Mode
In the No Consolidation mode, the system assigns a shipment number to each order line of a sales order.
In this scenario, we have a sales order with four order lines. Because of no consolidation, when we create the sales order, the system assigns a different shipment number to each order line.
The original shipment numbers are 400, 401, 402, and 403. The following table illustrates the details of the sales order lines and each respective original shipment number before running the Release from Fulfillment report:
Order Line |
Item |
Quantity |
Shipment Number |
---|---|---|---|
1 |
A |
50 |
400 |
2 |
B |
75 |
401 |
3 |
C |
100 |
402 |
4 |
D |
150 |
403 |
When you run the Release from Fulfillment report, the system:
Partially releases the quantity for order lines 1, 3, and 4
Releases all of the quantity for order line 2
This table illustrates the results of fulfillment processing in the No Consolidation mode:

The released quantities for each order line remain on their respective original shipment number. The system assigns a new shipment number to the partially released order lines. The system does not create a new shipment number for order line 2 because the system did not release any of the order lines from fulfillment. The following tables illustrate the contents of the original shipment numbers after you run the Release from Fulfillment report:
