Result

The documents or items are designated for cross-docking. Decisions of type A (Designation of inbound doc/item for cross-docking) or B (Designation of outbound doc/item for cross-docking) are created for the documents or items.

·        In the case of an inbound document/item, TOs created for the inbound items designated for cross-docking are created to the cross-docking storage type.

·        In the case of an outbound document/item, putaway TOs created for arrived inbound items with the same materials as the outbound items are created to fulfil the outbound items, as long as planned decisions do not exist for these inbound items.

Note
