Re: OFFSHIP not producing SA's - continued

Ann:

I have seen that happen before or using a logical that does not get 
updated immediately can cause some grief.  I don't think that is causing 
our problem since Offship is processing the records/creating a shipment, 
just that stinking AMI3G goes whacko.

We have a program where someone goes in & checks that the items being 
shipped are correct, the special charge is ok, etc and will be shipped 
today.  The last screen in this program the user press either F5 to say 
order is shipping or F11 to indicate it is not.  When the say F5, we 
update the offship group-id to 'READY' in all 3 files for this order.

This is how we only process orders that are shipping today (physically 
leaving our warehouse), some may not leave until the next day or so.  We 
are planning on using the same logic when we go to the next step of 
creating the shipment immediately, by populating the group-id with the job 
number so we don't try to process an order that may be in the update 
process from another workstation.

Re: [MAPICS-L] OFFSHIP not producing SA's - continued






One thing I see in my programs is that I had a problem of all the records
getting written.  There was a discussion on this just a week or so ago 
about
using UF A.  My programs are using O for the offship files and I had to
close the files and use *INLR=*ON to get all the records written before
calling the offship program.  I even tried FRCRATIO on the OVRDBF for 
SLDATA
but have commented that out.
