Understanding the Ship Confirm Batch Application

The Ship Confirm Batch Application program (R42500) enables you to confirm multiple orders simultaneously. This process updates the EDI Purchase Order Change Header - Inbound (F47131) and EDI Purchase Order Change Detail - Inbound (F47132) tables. The R42500 program calls the Inbound Transaction Processor program (R47500), which also uses the customer order change tables.

When you confirm shipments for orders in batch mode, the system retrieves all orders at the status that you specify in the R42500 program processing options.

The system does not process orders with these criteria:

  • Orders that are currently on hold.

  • Orders that are processed by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Warehouse Management.

  • Orders that were previously processed for ship confirmation.

  • Orders with a future committed quantity that is greater than zero.

You can run the batch shipment confirmation in proof or final mode. When you run the batch shipment confirmation in proof mode, the system does not advance the status of the orders or update the database. The system sends any electronic error messages to the work center. You can correct errors in the Sales Order Detail Revisions form and resubmit the order for confirmation.

Whenever you run the R42500 program, the system automatically runs the R47500 program to streamline batch processing. When you set up the processing options for the R42500 program, you must specify a version of the P4205 program. Also, set the processing options for the R47500 program.

If you use taxed prices and access the Batch Ship Confirm program (R42500), the system performs the following actions:

  • Retrieves the value in the Use Taxed Prices flag from the Sales Order Header Tax table (F4201TX) and updates the value to the EDI Purchase Order Change Header Tax - Inbound table (F47131TX).

  • Retrieves the taxed unit price, taxed extended price, unit tax amount, extended tax amount and foreign equivalents from the Sales Order Detail Tax table (F4211TX) and updates the values to the EDI Purchase Order Change Detail Tax - Inbound table (F47132TX).

If you use the taxed prices and access the Inbound Transaction Processor report (R47500), the system displays either the domestic or foreign tax prices fields on the report.
