Depending who is the authority. In our case, the goal is to fix our
screw-ups without advertising to the customer that we have mistakes.
Ideally you want a system which is easy for everyone to use, and easy to
audit. We sometimes use item classes to associate activity which follows
some standard non-standard rule. Everyone knows the special handling rules
for special item classes.
We on earlier version of BPCS. We have shipping dept errors.
* Oops we shipped X but we keyed in wrong order as being shipped, or
wrong order line, or wrong item, or wrong quantity, or whatever.
* Oops, there was a price change but it did not get keyed in, in time,
we need the invoice correct.
* To solve this, after the B transaction, we go into BBL record with
DFU and tinker with it.
* There is a sequence line # in the BBL which tells us which sequence
line # in the ECL customer order line is the corresponding record to need a
DFU adjustment.
* There has to be an inventory adjustment to reverse the B
transaction, so inventory correct. There's an opposite cost-of-sales GL
transaction to the B to make sure GL is corrected.
* If someone was to match shipping records with billing records, they
would find evidence of stuff shipped but not billed. We inform auditors,
stick a note in the accounting, how come this done.
In your case, you can have multiple ship-to attached to each bill-to, where
in some cases customer-A ship-to just happens to be attached to customer-B
bill-to. It could be a drop-ship arrangement, where some customer-A is both
your customer and customer of B. Sometimes customer-A orders direct from
you, and sometimes thru customer-B.
Since customer-A ship to is probably also attached to customer-A bill-to,
there's occasional risk of getting them mixed up. BPCS also supports a
third level . corporate customer, where the bill-to ship-to might be a
division of a conglomerate, but all bills go to corporate HQ.

Hi..
This can be business requirement to facilitate the customer requirement...
Scenario is customer order is created for customer A and for some reason
management wants to ship the material customer B
And at the same time they does not want to bill the customer order of A and
do RMA and then create a new order on customer B because cancellation of
invoice need to be informed the statutory authority.
In this can I do the -B transaction and may have to delete the BBH/BBL
records. But the customer order of A will show the status ready for billing.
Regards
Rajesh

No you cannot do it , you can de allocate the order if it is only pick
released , cancel the order and raise a new order for the new customer.
The exsisting order cannot be changed. But if you have pick confirmed then
you have essentially shipped a order physically so it is not possible to
revert back as you have already done the hard allocation.
My question is what is your purpose , is it a one of mistake that the
customer has done or it is going to be a regular phenomenon.
If it is regular then you need some customization to check and stop people
from Pick confirming if the customer is not right. Thats my view the experts
in the forum might shed some more light as I am not too familiar with LX
what I have said is my experience from version 6.xx.xx.
Thanks & Regards
