need order release update when order base is updated

[Brintha]

Hi,
I have used the "is shippable" option in line item screen to release an OrderBase automatically when it is created. The order base screen has been customized to hold "is shippable" value as true permanantly. The same has been set to true in the transorder xml too.since this field is true, It always results in the creation of new order release when an order base is created or updated.
The requirement is that, When ever an order base is updated, It should only update the order release that already exists for that order base and should not create a new release.

Example:
new order base: 2741290
order release: 2741290-001

on update of order base: 2741290
order release: 2741290-001
order release: 2741290-002

Two releases are found for same order but i need 2741290-001 to be updated. Or is there any possibility to have 2741290-002 alone in the system by deleting the previous release for the worst case.

Could any one please help me to figure out some solution for this. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Brintha

It sound like you want a one to one relationship between the OB and Release.

If this is the case - why bother with the Order Base at all?

Hi Gary,

When planned shipment is sent out as outbound, it has two releases in case if order is edited and it would be redundant. The Order information comes inside OTM as orderbase so I need an one to one relation between these two. Is there any way accomplish this? thanks in advance.

Hi Brintha,

You can set up an agent of type "Order Base" which can unassign your previous order release (order release: 2741290-001) by using the action "Unassign Order" in your agent.

Note your shipment assigned tou your previous order release will also get deleted.
