How to prevent OTM from auto-creating order movement when it is split to >1 shipment?

[yeowleng Member Find all posts View Profile Close yeowleng]

I realise that when I bulk plan an order movement that will be split into more than 1 shipment (due to large volume/weight), OTM will auto create 1 order movement for each shipment created

E.g if one OM is split into 2 shipments, OTM will auto create an extra OM.

How can I prevent this?

Thanks and appreciate any help!

Why do you want to prevent this??

It is only possible if you are satisfied with one shipment instead of 2. (i.e) if you remove bulk splittable from your order release then OTM will create one shipment and one order movement.

I still need my orders to be splittable due to equipment capacity, but i do not need another order movement. Is there any way out?

The automatic creation of another OM if an OM is planned over multiple shipments, sounds to me like some sort of a bug. This doesn't happen when you plan an OR over multiple shipments.
I would recommend contacting Oracle Support for this.

Hi Sophia,

Why do you want to stop creation of OM when order is really shipped via 2 different shipment? Can you explain scenario in detail - Business Scenario, and end purpose of just creating one OM.
