Questions and Answers

Question 1 - Why are some sales order detail lines not displayed by Ship Confirm (P4205) application?

Question 2 - When does the Multi-location (P42053) screen show “Quantity Over” and “Quantity Under” fields?

Question 3 - How does Shipment Confirmation (P4205) determine if there is a Standard Cost Variance.

Question 4 - Is there any functionality to trigger an email from Shipment Confirmation (P4205) to inform the user of the status?

Question 5 - Using the Ship Confirm application to add an additional line (freight, for example), the order goes back on hold, having previously been released. Why does this happen and how can it be prevented?

Question 6 - After an order detail line has been confirmed, can the quantity on that order detail line be changed?

Question 7 - We have a custom program that updates the Actual Ship Date (ADDJ) and Actual Ship Time (ATMD) on sales order detail lines prior to running shipment confirmation to create the split lines for available quantities. When shipment confirmation is run, the program properly creates a cancel line with the correct date and time, but the actual ship line has a ship date of today and a actual ship time as of the time the program was run and not the ship time that was input on the sales order detail line. Why?

Question 8 - Is there a way to have the P4205 ADDJ (date Actual Ship) validate against the open GL period? Any manually entered date will be allowed by the system.

Question 9 - Is there a way to prevent shipment confirmation from populating the Actual Ship Date (ADDJ) and/or Actual Ship Time (ATMD) on a sales order?

Question 10 - Is there an option to prevent shipment confirmation program (P4205) from updating sales order unit cost F4211.UNCS with the new adjusted cost and rather use the original cost entered during sales order entry (P4210) program?

Question 11 - How does the system handle the Actual Ship Date (ADDJ) for freight lines added at ship confirm for a sales order?

Question 12 - Is it possible to ship confirm (P4205) a sales order using header branch plant?

Question 1 - Why does a sales order go on hold after addtional lines are added at Ship Confirm?

Question 2 - How can the system be setup to restrict an order from being partially shipped (i.e. all the sales order detail lines must be shipped at once)?

Question 3 - When a sales order line is backordered at Ship Confirm (P4205) and the line is split, a shipment number is populated on the new line, causing problems with the sales order. Why does P4205 assign this shipment number?

Question 4 - Why is Ship Confirm slow when processing Additional Lines?

Question 5 - Is it possible to avoid populating the Actual Ship Date (ADDJ) field for Pack Confirm?

Question 6 - Is it possible to avoid updating the Item History (F4115) file during Ship Confirm (P4205), while still relieving Inventory?

Question 7 – Why is the grid locked when taking the Pack Confirm (P4216) Row Exit?

Question 8 - Does a non-stock sales order - N line type with inventory interface N, need to go through ship confirm?

Question 9: - If an item is returned using a Credit Order from History with a CO order type, and the header and detail branch plans are different, why is Ship Confirm (P4205) updating the Item Ledger (F4111) with the current Sales/Inventory cost from the Item Cost (P4105) file, instead of using the historical cost from the original sales order? Same issue also occurs for normal sales order (SO) with different header and detail branch plants and cost override.
