Constrain Updates According to Inventory Management's Status

Use a predefined validation rule set to constrain the updates that you can make on a fulfillment line according to the shipment line's status in Inventory Management.

Use a predefined validation rule set to constrain the updates that you can make on a fulfillment line according to the shipment line's status in Inventory Management.

You don’t need to run the Send Intermediate Shipment Status Update scheduled process or create an order management extension to constrain these changes. Instead use one of these predefined rule sets:

• Fulfillment Line is Picked or Staged
• Fulfillment Line is Backordered
• Fulfillment Line is Released to Warehouse

Assume you need a condition.

• If Inventory Management picks or stages a fulfillment line, then don't allow your users to update the Warehouse attribute on the fulfillment line in Order Management
