RE: Style - Ship and Cancel Orders

["Fox, Tim" <TSFox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Kevin,

The Batch Allocation program (AP320) must be modified to allow for ship &
cancel to work the way you want it to work.  Basically, the "cancellation"
code must be removed from AP320 and added to the step were you want the
cancellation to take place.  In our environment, we put it in Confirmation
of Dispatch.  If you would like additional details, email me direct.

Subject: Style - Ship and Cancel Orders


Has anyone figured out how to truly ship and cancel at the whole order 
level.  We are on Style v 3.5.2.b.sp1.  When we enter a customer order with 
the back order code set to 0 (no backorders), the system will attempt to 
allocate the order one time and if not enough inventory has been allocated 
to meet the 60% initial fill rate, the order sits in limbo until some manual

action is taken on it (e.g. lower the % or manual allocation).
Our initial understanding was that the order would continue to allocate 
until the first shipment and then have the remainder of the order be 
cancelled during confirmation of dispatch.  The helpline has since informed 
us that the backorder processing happens during allocation (yuck)...If the 
order doesn't allocate and ship on the first pass, batch allocation will not

look at the order again.
Is there a workaround or is it a modification???

Thanks,
Kevin King - Texas Boot Co.
