MTO shop orders to outbound locations

@clbrch Could you provide background for your statement that you cannot receive MTO shop order output into a Floor Stock location because one must not receive parts which are reserved into a Floor stock location. Is this an internal policy?

I suspect @clbrch refers to that if you have a shop order pegged to a top level DOP order where the DOP header is pegged to a customer order line, you cannot receive that top level shop order into a shop floor location since that part should be automatically reserved to the customer order line, and the customer order line does not allow reservation from a shop floor location.

I just want to say that there are a few potential solutions to prevent stock from being reserved or picklists from being created for an outbound location that is designated as a picking warehouse type:

1. Configure the outbound location as "floor stock" type instead of "picking warehouse" type. This will prevent the system from creating picklists for orders that include items from that location.

2. Create a custom rule in the system to prevent stock from being reserved for certain items or item groups if they are located at the outbound location in question.

3. Utilize a "make to order" process, where items are only manufactured or assembled once an order has been placed, rather than keeping a stock of finished goods at the outbound location.
