Enter Dispatch Advice Manually

Explanation

This activity is used to manually enter a dispatch advice. When a dispatch advice has been received externally, like for example through an e-mail, it has to be manually entered as it will not be automatically handled by EDI/MHS messages.

Prerequisites

• A source order should exists to be received (e.g.:A purchase order with at least one order line must have been released or confirmed)

System Effects

• When the header record is entered, the Manually Created check box gets selected indicating that the incoming dispatch advice has been manually created.
• The Incoming Dispatch Advice/Available Source Lines tab will get enabled, allowing users to connect part lines manually to the dispatch advice.
