Status changes, which are allowed in shipment related dispatches, are as below.

• The status of shipment slips in Completed status cannot be changed; and the application gives a warning.

• When it is required to change the status of a shipment slip in Under Way status, or simply open any slip in Under Way status with Update option, the application warns user, prompting with the approval message. If it is approved, then the relation is broken, and the status is changed. However, the status info of these slips cannot be changed using Batch Status Change option.

• When attempted to change the status of dispatches in Under Way status and related to a shipment slip into the "Cancelled" status, the application informs that dispatch and shipment relation will be broken. If approved by clicking the OK button, then the relation is broken. Warehouse totals are affected due to the dispatches of which shipment relations are broken and therefore totals are recalculated. While distribution quantity decreases after sales, it increases after the slip status is changed into the Cancelled status.

• When attempted to change the status of dispatches in Under Way status and related to a shipment slip into the "Draft" status, material warehouse totals are recalculated. While distribution quantity decreases after sales, it increases after the slip status is changed into the Cancelled status.

• When attempted to change the status of dispatches or return dispatches - that are in Under Way status and related to a shipment slip - into the "Draft" or "Cancelled" status, the following controls are done:

The hot sales line generated after return transaction or increased in Quantity can be used in another sales transaction. Therefore, the application warns users that hot sales lines cannot be edited or undone when attempted to cancel return slips or change the slip status into Draft.

• The AR/AP, Organizational Unit, Warehouse and Shipment Slip No information of dispatches, which are related to a shipment slip, cannot be changed. Quantity, Price and Amount info can be changed in lines.

• When the dispatches, which are related to a shipment slip in Under Way status, are changed into the "Approved" status from the "Draft" status, material warehouse totals are recalculated.

• Please consider the probability that the order may be transferred to another dispatch later on. If the order is delivered, this dispatch cannot be approved because it would mean that the order is closed.

If there is a sales transaction as there is when a dispatch is generated in Approved status, distribution quantity is decreased. If there is a return transaction, then distribution quantity is increased.

• • When the quantity of dispatches, which are generated from a shipment slip and related to an order, is changed and the dispatch status is changed from "Draft" into "Approved", hot sales lines are generated in the quantity of "order quantity - dispatch quantity". Shipment quantity of the order decreases.

• • When the quantity of "draft" dispatches that are related to a shipment slip is changed and the status is changed into "Approved", hot sales lines are generated in the number of return quantity. In this case, goods remaining from this order are put into distribution again and then sold if required. Accordingly:

• If the relevant material is available for hot sales in shipment lines, quantity and shipment quantity in line is increased.

• If the relevant material is not available for hot sales in shipment lines, then a new shipment line is added to the slip. Material and Variant Code, Return Quantity, Organizational Unit and Warehouse Info specified in return slip is transferred to the shipment lines.

• The status of orders, which are related to a shipment slip, can be changed manually into Closed status only. When the shipment slip's status is Completed, order can be changed into Closed status. Otherwise, user is warned. Order's shipment relation is not evaluated on slip basis; it is evaluated on line transaction basis.

• If transaction scope is set to all lines in Change Status window, lines to which status change is applicable are evaluated. If there are transactions with shipment relation, user is warned and informed that the status of lines, which are transferred to the shipment slip, will not be changed and only the appropriate lines are changed.
• If transaction scope is set to user optional lines, and there are transactions with shipment relation, user is warned and informed that the status of lines, which are transferred to the shipment slip, will not be changed and only the appropriate lines are changed.

• If the slip is generated as to reset all undelivered quantities waiting for order transfer (all quantity is transferred to shipment slip), the status of the order transaction with shipment relation is changed into Closed automatically.

• If the user approves deleting dispatches while deleting invoices of shipment slip related dispatches:
  • If shipment slip status is Under Way: Dispatches are deleted, shipment distribution totals are recalculated. The status of shipment transaction is rearranged.
  • If shipment slip status is Completed: Dispatches cannot be deleted, and the user is warned.
