Understanding Converting Existing Data

If you are using a previous release of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Warehouse Management system and want to use existing data in the system, you must remove existing location detail records before using license plates. Storage Unit Numbers (STUNs) (which were also referred to as License Plates) are obsolete when you use the latest release of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Warehouse Management system. If you are not converting existing records and want to use licence plates, then you only set up the system.

Note: You cannot have any open suggestions when you begin the conversion process.

You must remove existing records in the Location Detail table (F4602) before you create new license plates numbers in the License Plate Master table (F46L10) and Location Capacity table (F46L30). You can also convert the Build Location Detail (R46820) records before the running the Location Detail Conversion (R4620) program with the processing option set to remove all existing LPNs. If you are not using STUNs, the Location Detail Conversion program deletes all of the F4602 records and updates the F46L30 table. You complete the conversion process as many times as necessary before you begin using license plates. After you run the Location Detail Conversion program, run the Location Capacity Build program, as many times as necessary, to create new location capacity records in the F46L30 table. The system uses data in the F41021 and the F4602 tables for the data in the Location Capacity Build program. The system also uses any existing records in the F46L10.
