Cross Dock Order
Cross-docking enables the system to directly allocate inbound inventory to a sales order. The system allocates inbound inventory based on date and priority.
- Flag
Specify whether to enable cross-docking. The system associates items or order lines with cross-dock processing. This code might indicate whether an item or an order line is eligible for cross-docking, whether it was cross-docked, or whether it must be cross-docked. When it is assigned to an item or item-branch, this code indicates that the item or the item in the branch/plant is eligible for cross-docking. When it is assigned to an order line, this code indicates that the order line must be cross-docked. Values are:
Blank or 0: Cross-docking is disabled.
1: Cross-docking is enabled.
- Priority
Specify the priority that the cross-docking system follows when assigning supply quantity to the sales orders. This priority indicates the sequence in which cross-docked sales orders are fulfilled for a given date. Sales order lines with a lower value receive a higher priority than lines with a higher value. The system performs only numeric edits on this value. If you do not specify a priority, or if the same priority is given to multiple order lines, the orders are fulfilled in the sequence of order number and order type.
