Pack with Wave Updates

Towards the end of the “Pack with Wave” stage of the wave process, the following updates are seen in the system:

  1. OBLPNs that are eligible for “Pack with Wave” will be updated to packed status and corresponding allocations are marked complete. Packed quantity on allocation will be updated accordingly.
  2. Inventory from corresponding dummy dynamic locations (that are created during the wave) will be reduced by the corresponding packed quantity.
  3. If OBLPNs were not already assigned to a load and if the facility parameter “ASSIGN_LOAD_WHEN_PACKED” is configured as Yes, then the load assignment will be complete and OBLPNs will be assigned to a load.
    • Load is not assigned to the OBLPN if the associated order has “externally_planned_flag” set to Yes and externally planned load number is not populated on the order detail.
  4. If OBLPNs are not already manifested and if OBLPNs ship_via has a carrier type of parcel, then OBLPNs are manifested.
  5. If the company parameter “FILES_TO_GENERATE_AT_LPN_PACKED”:
  • Is configured as OLO, then “OBLPN Shipping Info” file is generated
  • Is configured as LLS, then “Outbound Load Export” file is generated
  • Is configured as LLS and OLI/OLO, then both “Outbound Load Export” and “OBLPN Shipping Info” files are generated.
Order Status is Updated:
  • To Packed, if all items in the order were eligible for “Pack with Wave” functionality and the order is completely packed.
  • To In-Packing, if only some items from the orders were eligible for “Pack with Wave” functionality and the rest are still in allocated status.
  • To Partially-Allocated, if some order lines are completely packed and some of the order lines are not selected at all.
Next:
  • Order Status Change Inventory History record is created.
  • Container Detail Packed Inventory History record is created for each OBLPN line that was updated as packed.
  • If the company parameter “FILES_TO_GENERATE_AT_ORDER_PACKED” is configured as PLS, then the “Order Outbound Load Export” file is generated for orders that have been updated as packed.
