Cross Dock Marking

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 50

Hi,

I have setup cross docking as per MS docs on a demo environment. 

However, when I try and 'mark' transactions, I do not see any PO's on the SO to mark each other with. 

Why is this?

I have on my cross dock template 'Marking' as the demand requirement and 'Purchase order' as the supply source. 

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Elizabeth, 

    The demand requirements section you've configured only identifies what is required for the cross docking to be created. In case you use marking the demand and supply need to be manually marked against each other in order to create any cross dock activities. So it does not influence what you see via the marking form it only tells the system in which case cross dock actions should be triggered. 

    The supply source you configure via the cross dock template defines what types of supply are valid for the template. Hence, this will also not influence the information you see via the marking form. 

    To come back to your original question, could you verify whether you've created any POs for the item you try to mark via the sales order?

    Hi Alice,

    OK thank you for the clarification.

    I have made a PO with the same product. The PO is confirmed as well (do not think this is relevant but just to add).

    Is there any parameters perhaps to allow marking or does it work by default?

    I am not sure where else to look.

    Hi Elizabeth,

    Could you validate the inventory model of your item [item group > inventory model]? Marking is not supported in case you are using standard costs so this could be one reason why you don't see any marking options. A "workaround" in this case is that you create a new purchase order directly via the sales order form. In this case the PO and SO will be marked against each other.

    In case the above is all fine you might want to double-check whether the dimensions of your PO and SO are the same, so think about the site, warehouse, etc. in this case. 

    Hope this helps.

    Hi, 

    It is the standard cost that was the problem.

    Thanks a lot!
