Copying EBS sales Order number from Order Release Lines to Shipments

[vsevs]

Hi,
Can we copy the EBS sales order number stored at order release line level to shipment level using agents?

Can anyone help me on this.

Thanks,
Venkat.

Yes, this is possible, as long as you have some clearly defined rules for this.
Consider for example:
- What if Order Release Lines are split over multiple shipments?
- How do you want to this information on shipment level to look like if you have more than 100 Order Release Lines on that shipment
- Where do you want to store the information on the shipment? Shipment header refnums/remarks? Ship Unit refnums?
- Why do you want them on shipment level? For visibility or reporting?

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. Apologies for delayed response.

What if Order Release Lines are split over multiple shipments?

- This will happen but not more than 1 split. This is for sure.

- How do you want to this information on shipment level to look like if you have more than 100 Order Release Lines on that shipment
- This will not happen in our customer business as they always have less than 10 lines in any order release / shipment.

- Where do you want to store the information on the shipment? Shipment header refnums/remarks? Ship Unit refnums?

- it would be great if we can store as shipment header refnums.

- Why do you want them on shipment level? For visibility or reporting?

- this is actually for both. We are integrating ECM to OTM for reporting and we always need to track the order/lines status.

Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi Lourens,
Can you help me on this. We always create one shipment per order release. How do we copy the order release header and line reference numbers to Shipment level.

Thanks,
