We are facing an issue where items reserved by a Work Order (WO) cannot be packed into a Handling Unit (HU). Our goal is to group these reserved items into a single HU so that we can move them as a whole to the work center.

However, IFS does not allow packing as the items are already reserved for the WO. Canceling the reservation is not an acceptable option due to process constraints.

Question:
What is the recommended way to handle this scenario in IFS? How can we pack reserved items into a HU while keeping the reservation intact and still be able to perform a bulk transfer to the work center?

@CdcAnnaaV I would love to see this functionality as well. Seems, it is not available yet. I think what is possible today is to load the materials into a transport task. Worthy of a new idea I guess. 


HI ​@CdcAnnaaV ,

They only way I can see is to pack the material before reserving them. In this way, you can reserve them easily by searching the ones that are already packed into the same HU.

But yes, received the same input from a colleague some days ago, so it could be a good idea to be explored by R&D. You can create it with your business case in the Ideas menu.

Regards,

Pilar
