This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Processing Defaults page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Processing Defaults page

Review or change any processing defaults for this request. Initially this page displays the current fulfillment engine options that are defined in the environment at the business unit level (in the Setup Fulfillment component) or at the SetID level (on the Fulfillment Engine Options page). The fields available on this page are determined by the selection of the Allow Processing Overrides check box in the fulfillment engine options.

Field or Control Description

Auto Schedule processing

Select this check box to immediately process this request when you click the Process button on the Fulfillment Workbench page or the Fulfillment Queue page. Requests are placed in staging tables and then immediately processed by the fulfillment engine using the Fulfillment Requests process.

Pass-through Level

An entry here enables error-free transactions to process through the system while holding back transactions that need additional review. This field is available only with a reservations transaction request. The options are:

  • Request: Any errors prevent the entire request from being processed.

  • Order: Errors prevent an order number from being processed but remaining orders on the request are processed.

    This option is available only on the fulfillment transaction requests for reserve materials processing.

  • Line: Errors prevent only the order line from being processed.

    The remaining lines on the order are processed and the remaining orders on the request are processed. This option is only available on the fulfillment transaction requests for reserve materials processing.

Commit Count

(For reserve requests) Enter the number of lines that can be committed to the database together by the fulfillment engine; in other words, define the size of the commit group.

Commit Level

(For reserve requests) Select the level of commits based on the number of:

  • Request: Counts the number of separate fulfillment transaction requests processed.

  • Order: Counts the number of separate orders (material stock requests and sales orders) processed.

  • Line: Counts the number of demand lines processed.

  • Item: Counts the number of item IDs processed.

Auto-Processing Option

Select the auto processing option to move your orders downstream to the desired state. The options available depend on the action chosen on the Fulfill Workbench page. Options include:

  • No Auto-Processing: Select to have the system only complete the process or action that you are initiating on the current page.

    No additional processing will be launched.

  • Advance to Released: Select to automatically process the orders to the released state when using the reserve action.

    The parameters defined on the Auto Release Run Control are used to process the orders through the Order Release Request process. These parameters could release the orders further downstream.

  • Advance to Confirmed: Select to automatically process the orders to the picking confirmed state when using the pick confirm action.

  • Advance to Shipped: Select to automatically process the orders to the shipped state when using the pick confirm action.

  • Advance to Depleted: Select to automatically process the orders to the depleted state when using any action except reserve.

Release Run Control

Select a run control for the Order Release Request process page. This run control contains the parameters to be used when auto-processing orders from an unfulfilled state to another downstream state. The Auto Processing Option field determines how far downstream the orders will be sent.
