Release Instructions

Release instructions decide how many ship units/lines should be released to create order release  and can be entered on Order Base Ship Unit or Order Base Line.

Release Instructions can be added at Ship Unit or at Line level

Release Instructions can be created in two ways

1) Can be added manually added via UI or sent via XML

• Shippable flag on Line/Ship Unit should not be selected
• Allow Releasing check box should be selected

2) Automatically release Order Base

• if Shippable flag on Line/Ship Unit is selected, OTM would create Release for full amount. After processing the release instruction, OTM will check the processed check box

In the Release Instruction field, select one of the following:

• Unit Amount: unit amount to release.
• Weight : amount of weight to release.
• Volume : amount of volume to release.

Allow Releasing CheckBox: to allow the release instruction to release the quantities you specify.

You can enter Source/Destination Locations to override the Source/Destination Locations on Order Base.

 Enter a Release Date to control when the order release is created for the release instruction. Later 

Order Release process should be scheduled to run from the process manager on the date/time. If no Release Date is entered, then Order Releases would be created once release instruction is saved.

Note: If you want all ship units/lines to be released every time, then order releases can be inserted from Release interface directly into OTM with out Order Bases
