Hi All,

Im trying to use the RMB 'Pack According to Packing Instruction' from the Inventory Part in Stock window, but it is greyed out.

From the looks of it, the only reason i can think of is because it is an 'Arrival' location type. This is the same for location types of 'Quality Assurance’.

Am i correct or am i missing something here? Any thoughts?

We are using Apps10, UPD 11.

Regards,

Arunalu

Hi @Arunalu , I checked this (App10 UPD9) the RMB is greyed out indeed for the 2 location types you mentioned. 

 

For location type Picking the option is available even if the Packing Instruction has to be created new. 

 

Then I checked the prerequisites for the this option. It dosen’t say anything about the location type though. I think only point 2 from this applies to you, and your screenshot tells me you have fulfilled it.

Additionally @Arunalu , if we go with the definitions for Arrival and QA locations (intended for QA / arrival staging right?) I think it makes sense not to enable Packing (as opposed to Picking location definition) in my view

If the parts in ARRIVAL location, is connected to a Purchase Receipt, Connecting those to Handling Units is possible via Receipt window although same is not allowed in Inventory Parts in Stock window.

Thank you @Rangi Wijewardana for this. In your opinion, any particular reason as to why it is enabled in Receipt but not in Inventory Part in Stock window?

Good point @Rangi Wijewardana , I had overlooked PO receipts yesterday when I was testing to respond to @Arunalu’s post. 

 

I think @Arunalu should select @Rangi Wijewardana ‘s answer as the best one here :relaxed: More than one occasion, I have relied on her knowledge in HUs, Packing Instructions and ASC in general.
