Documentation
Definition
Specifies that the system takes into account the rounding and minimum quantities when it automatically expands the packing instruction.
Procedure
If you flag the indicator, the system takes into account the minimum and rounding quantities when it automatically expands the packing instruction.
If you do not flag the indicator, the system does not take into account the minimum and rounding quantities.
Examples
Packing instruction P1 has a minimum quantity of 50 pieces. There is also a rounding quantity of 50 pieces.
If 30 pieces are to be packed, and this indicator is flagged, no HU proposal is created, because the minimum quantity has not been reached. If the indicator is not flagged, the system creates an HU proposal of 30 pieces. The fact that the minimum quantity has not been reached is shown in the packing status.
If 120 pieces are to be packed, and this indicator is flagged, the system expands the packing instruction and rounds the quantity down to 100 pieces. A quantity of 20 pieces remains unpacked. If the indicator is not flagged, the system creates an HU proposal of 120 pieces. The fact that the rounding quantity is not respected is shown in the packing status.
Dependencies
When setting this indicator, you should also take into account another packing transaction profile parameter, Minimum packing status in automatic expansion , together with the settings defined in the packing status check profile.
Rounding quantity
For example, the packing status check profile is set so that the packing status is red (packing instruction violated) if the rounding quantity is not respected, and the minimum packing status is set to yellow (tolerated variance). If the user enters any quantity to be packed that is not rounded to the correct rounding quantity, the system then creates no HU proposals at all, because the minimum packing status is not reached by the end of the packing process.
However, if this indicator is flagged, the system automatically creates rounded HU proposals from the start of the packing process.
Minimum quantity
For example, if the packing status check profile is set so that the packing status is red (packing instruction violated) if the minimum quantity is not reached, and the minimum packing status is set to yellow (tolerated variance) the system then creates no HU proposals that contain less than the minimum quantity, regardless of how this indicator is set.
