RE: Stock Pick List not considering MFG Subassembly Allocations

Hi Peter, 

I think you can use discreet allocation.  Once the parts are discreetly
allocated to mfg. they won't be stock picked.

Subject: Stock Pick List not considering MFG Subassembly Allocations

Hi list!

One of our facilities is using the stock pick list to generate pick lists. 
 They have parts that are sold as end items, but also are sub-assemblies 
for other parts.  They want the stock pick list auto allocation program to 
consider the manufacturing requirements as well as the sales order 
requirements.  They don't want an item to be shipped out if there is a 
manufacturing requirement with an earlier due date.  Does anyone have any 
suggestions on how to handle?  They don't want to manually allocate the 
sales orders.

We are V2R6 PTF 4140 (PTF Package SH14724)
