RE: We lost BBL records

[Sue Underwood <sueu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Jesus,

You didn't mention what version of BPCS you are using, but I recently 
experienced a similar event at a site running 6.02.  If you are on the same 
version (and haven't heavily modified the shipping/billing process), you 
should have EIL (Invoiced Lots).  EIL is built in the pick confirm program 
with the consolidation (ECD) number in the invoice number field (it gets 
replaced with the real invoice number at billing).  You could possibly 
re-build BBLs by summarizing EILs by consolidation, order and line.

Hello Everybody!

We had a major failure with our AS400, we had to
recover all the data from a backup, however we lost
the BBL file. Well this file is two days old, and the
BBH and all the environment is up to date.
I have been struggling what is the best way to correct
this. This is what I have found out so far.

Get all the shipments made on those two dates.
Check from our reports what orders from those
shipments were already billed.
Generate an order type 7 class 8 for all the orders
that havent been billed.

However, someone in my company says this order will
affect twice the inventory, that we should find out
another way to bill those orders?

What do you think? I would appreciate any help!!
