picklist on out of stock items
Hi.
Is there a design reason why the picklist will show all the items on
the order, instead of just what's in inventory? This causes out of
stock items to show up on picklists, and it also causes items which
are short stocked (ie 3 in stock when 5 are needed) to show up.

Ok. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't a feature that I didn't
understand. I'll take a look.

David,
Ok, I looked at it some more, and this is what it seems to do:
Let's say you order an item, and it is out of stock. The picking
sheet will still show a quantity of 1. On the packing sheet, to the
right, is a column with header "Inventory Avail:Not Avail" and it
will show "11000 1:1", "11000" being the inventoryItemId of the
reservation.
Similarly, if you order 12 of something and only 6 are in stock, on
the picking sheet it will show 12, and on the packing sheet it will
show 12:6.
So it seems to me that there are two strange things here. First, why
is it showing on the picking sheet? Second, why does it show up in
both the "avail" and the "not avail" column?

It should still show the inventory counts even there is no facility
location, and yeah the location is just blanked out.

So does the product need to be associated with a location for that to
happen? If it seems that if you don't have location defined, then
the whole quantity of the order item shows up with "----" as location.

Does that require that the product inventory items have facility
locations associated with them?

The picklists show how much (according to the system) is in stock at
the location(s) (or lack thereof...) where the items are to be picked
so that the picker and packer know that it is a partial order and
such, and by how much.
