Second Shipping Document prints zero quantity items

Posted on by Community Member

Hope I'm not asking something already answered. I did some checking but didn't find an answer.

Problem:

Create a Sales Order. From Sales Order create a Shipping Document, Partial Fill i.e. add quantities to some of the items but leave others zero quantity (blank). The first shipping document is fine. Return to the same Sales Order to create then next Shipping Document add quantities to some fields, leave other zero quantity (blank)...another partial fill. 

In the second instance and all subsequent, the document prints ALL items in the Sales Order both what you selected (put totals next to) but also prints all the items where there is no shipping quantity.

This creates confusion for authorities since they look at what is listed on the document and assume this is in the container somewhere.  So in this scenario, we have multiple items listed that are not in the container. How do I get ONLY those items that I have applied a shipping quantity to appear?

    Hey Adrian, I think what you're trying to achieve here is potentially non-standard unless someone knows something I don't.

    You may need to look into getting the report modified. My guess is you'd need some sort of logic e.g IF quantity ='0' don't show item, but this is getting quite advanced so you'd probably need a developer to look at it...

    hi,

    Depends on the document which you actually print.

    In the Warehouse Shipment, you could keep only the items which you actually ship. Delete the other lines then.

    You can print from the Warehouse Shipment and create multiple shipments per Sales Order.

    If this does not fit your internal business processes or you are using the order confirmation from the Sales Order, you probably need a customization in the report you are using.
