On the next screen the user must select a reason why the full quantity has not been shipped. Every reason that can be used for shipping can be selected.

After every SSCC is loaded or the user has tapped the Ship loaded SSCCs button, the logistic units are shipped and the delivery document is created.

Note:

• Items with different description on the sales order, even if using the same itemcode, are not consolidated on the delivery document.
• When the invoices are generated automatically via the Mobile Client, the down payment request information is not being pulled through.
• When shipping multiple SSCCs of a customer with different shipping addresses, the system changes the address to the default address of the customer in the delivery note.
• After completing the picking process on the Mobile Client and perfoming shipping, the Sales Employee data of the Sales Order line and the A/R Reserve Invoice line are copied to the Delivery document line. The data is also copied with consolidated picking.

If the Use Pmx sales shipping? option is set to true on the Sales delivery note generator, instead of an SBO sales delivery note, a PMX sales shipping note will be created. The picklist(s) will remain open and the stock will remain on the dock until the SBO delivery note is created.

If the Fill packing info in delivery? (Y/N) option is enabled on the Sales Delivery Note Generator, the master SSCC and the SSCC number is added to the Packing Slip when the delivery note is created. The Package No. is the LUID of the (sub)logistic unit.

When an SBO delivery note is created, the Shipping: Sales delivery note created event (300) print event is triggered.
When a PMX sales shipping note is created, the Shipping: PMX sales shipping created event (303) print event is triggered.
The default reports for both print events are:

• DefaultSalesDeliveryBySSCC.rpt
• DefaultSalesDeliveryBySalesOrder.rpt

When shipping based on a picklist / wave / customer, the Shipping: Picklist shipped event (302) print event is also triggered and the picklist is printed.

When shipping based on a route, the Shipping: Route shipped event (301) print event is also triggered and the Route Document is printed. The default report for the print event is the DefaultRouteDocument.rpt.

It is possible to use the Move Order flow and Ad Hoc Move flow on the Mobile Client, to move already packed logistic units. Packed Logistic Units are usually locked and normally moving these units are not suggested, but in some cases moving them are necessary.

There are some cases when a packed (and locked) logistic unit must be moved to a specified location e.g.: Stock is currently at a “default” Shipping Dock as “Packed” SSCCs, which is a temporary location for packed pallets. The next step is to move the stock to the actual Shipping Dock, where the truck will be loaded with the “Packed” SSCCs.

Move Order
If the original location has limited space, the packed units should be relocated to a more spacious area or positioned closer to the dock for loading. This move can be planned ahead using a Move Order.

Based on the shipping type and the General settings configurations, you may have to take the following extra steps before creating the delivery document.

The license plate will be added to the ’The license plate’ UDF on the sales delivery document and the A/R invoice.
