Manage Sales Orders That Have Inventory Transactions
You can use the Order Management work area to create a sales order that has an inventory transaction.
-
Go to the Order Management work area, create a sales order and set the values on the order header.
-
Set the values on the order line:
Attribute
Value
Allow Inventory Transaction
Yes
This setting helps to reduce inventory when you don't pick or ship the item. Use it for standard items that are shippable. A standard item is any item that isn't a configured item or kit.
Warehouse
Subinventory
You must set a value for each of these attributes.
If you don't, and if you set Allow Inventory Transaction to Yes, then you will receive an error when you submit.
-
If a revision, lot, or serial controls the item on the order line, or if a locator controls the subinventory, then set a value for the Quantity, Revision Number, Lot, From Serial Number, or Locator attributes on the order line. The values that you set depends on what controls the item. For example, if a lot controls the item, then set a value in the Lot attribute.
-
Submit.
-
Go to a fulfillment view, then monitor the Sent to Inventory attribute on your sales order to determine whether Order Management sent the order line to inventory.
