Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone else has come across this scenario before? The scenario is in Apps 10 EE.

We have received some parts into stock from a shop order. The parts were marked as requiring an expiration date (mandatory expiration date check box checked on Inventory Part). So when we received them into stock they were given an expiration date. We then reopened the shop order and tried to unreceive it because we needed to make adjustments. However, when we were trying to do this we were presented with an error message saying that an expiration date is mandatory and requires a value.

Why would the system check for an expiration date when you unreceive on the shop order? It doesn’t make sense to me?

The only way we could get around this error was to uncheck the box for mandatory expiration date, then unreceive the goods, and then check the box again.

Am I missing some logic here?

Thank you in advance
