Hello experts,
I have a question about the Outstanding Quantity and Outstanding Qty_ (Base) fields,
I have 2 Sales orders, I have the same product in both and the same quantity (36).

But if I go to the Sales Line in one sales order it shows me in Outstanding Qty_ (Base) = 0 and in Outstanding Quantity=36, but in the other sales order it shows me Outstanding Qty_ (Base) = 36 and in Outstanding Quantity=36.

Can you help me with this?

What is the difference between these 2 fields?

Thanks,

Help with Outstanding Quantity and Outstanding Qty_ (Base)

outstanding qty base refers to the item in base unit of measure. e.g. Item xyz with base UOM as pcs, but use Box as sales unit of measure. one box has 10 pcs. When you sell 1 box of item, the outstanding qty will be 1, and the outstanding qty base will be 10.

Help with Outstanding Quantity and Outstanding Qty_ (Base)

This is related to the base unit of measure. Because the unit of measure may be different, two fields are prepared in the system. For example, when you purchase, it is barrels, and when you sell, it is kilograms.

More details:

But there is a problem with your last line. It seems that the Validate trigger is not executed when the system is imported from the external system. Will this problem occur when inputting from the page?

Hope this can give you some hints.

Thanks.
