Feature details

While shipping inventory on an outbound transfer order through the point of sale (POS) application, store managers might determine that they are able to ship only a portion of the requested quantity and will never be able to provide the inbound requesting warehouse with the full requested quantity.

To ensure the transfer order line is properly closed even though the full quantity has not been shipped, users will have the ability to use a "close remainder" function for selected transfer orders lines. When this option is selected, the partial shipped quantity will be posted to Commerce headquarters when the transfer order is processed from POS, and any open ship remaining quantity will be considered canceled. This will allow the line to be closed for future shipment and will ensure the inbound warehouse or store can clearly understand that they should not expect the remaining requested quantity on another shipment.

This functionality will work only if the company has configured "allow under delivery" parameters for transfer orders and if the close remainder/canceled quantity is within tolerance of the under-delivery percentage configured for the transfer order line.
