Re: WHP77, events, and action lists

[Glenn Melville <glennmelville@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bill,

WHP77 is the Event Details file in System21.

If we take your 2500 pieces as an example and lets say you have a pallet 
configuration for the product of 500 pieces which gives 5 pallets (5 x 
500), and the pallets are located in locations A01,A02,A03,A04 and A05 
respectively.

You raise a Sales Order for 2500 pieces, run 2/OER to generate Sales 
Pick Lists (this populates INP56 and INP57) and then run 22/WHP to 
release the demand into the Warehouse.  The System21 commit process will 
now go looking for stock in the Warehouse based on the commit rules 
defined for the item in the Item/Warehouse Profile (4/WHM). Assuming the 
locations stated above were within the commit rules or you were 
committing by 'Any Location' then the following would happen...

A record would be created on file WHP75 for the total demand quantity 
for the item, 2500 pieces in your case.  This record will be allocated a 
unique event number (WHP75) by warehouse.

5 records would be created on file WHP77 which will all have the same 
event number (WHP77) as per WHP75, but with a different event sequence 
number (EVSQ77).

A01 for 500
A02 for 500
A03 for 500
A04 for 500
A05 for 500

WHP75 has a one to many relationship with WHP77.  The WHP77 records are 
then tagged with a list number (ACNO77) which is related to WHP73, in 
other words WHP73 has a one to many relationship with WHP77.  It is the 
list that you confirm via System21 using 7/WHP.

How the WHP77 records are generated is dependant upon your commit rules 
for the item (4/WHM <F17>) and the profile of your stock in the 
warehouse at the time you run 22/WHP.

Hope this helps.
