Allow Quantity Modification for Partly Allocated IBLPNs

To provide flexibility in updating the current quantity of partly allocated IBLPNs, we have eased certain restrictions in specific UI, API, and Mobile transactions. This enhancement enables you to update current quantity of partly allocated IBLPNs, based on your requirements.

You can now modify current quantity of a partly allocated IBLPN using the following UI, API, and Mobile transactions:

  • IBLPNs(IBContainerView) UI > Modify Qty action button
  • IB Shipments (IBShipmentView) UI > Nbr LPNs > Modify Qty action button
  • iblpn/modify_item_qty API
  • Mobile Modify IBLPN (rf.inbound.cwrfmodcase) transaction

KEY CAPABILITIES

  • Increase quantity: You can increase current quantity of a partly allocated IBLPN without restrictions.
  • Decrease quantity: You can decrease current quantity, provided it does not fall below the currently allocated quantity. If you reduce below the allocated quantity, the system displays an error message mentioning that current quantity cannot be below the allocated quantity.
  • Status updates: When you update current quantity, the system recalculates and updates IBLPN status as follows:
    • If IBLPN’s current quantity is equals to the allocated quantity, the system updates the IBLPN status to “Allocated”.
    • If IBLPN’s current quantity is greater than the allocated quantity, the status remains “Partly Allocated”.
  • Inventory History Tracking: The system records all changes through inventory History Transactions.
  • Restrictions on allocated IBLPNs: Modifying allocated IBLPNs remains disabled to maintain control and accuracy, as allocation or distribution type is not easily inferred and could impact downstream picking and packing.
