4 Replies and 330 Views ER for Account Number on PO 330 4 Started by Kat V Just created an enhancement request to make ED40 readable to other issue methods. At Inforum they mentioned they were having difficulty coming up with a solution that would fit everyone and it occurred to me that we have already all figured out a way to map the PO header to an account for EDI. If instead of TPID_O the POs issued to Paper/Fax/Email looked for PO_O records we would be fine. At any rate, I'm going to see if I can bribe my IT to at least put it on the wish list for IPAs. :)

4 Replies and 2867 Views MSCM: Handhelds lose server address 2867 4 Started by JonA Occasionally, for no reason that's apparent to me, our Dolphin 9550's lose the server address in the MSMC application. Usually the material handler doesn't find out until they have to upload their counts and they get 'A network connection is needed...' message. The only way to fix this is to go into the settings and re-add the address but they have to exit the par counting area to get there thus losing all they have counted.

I did find on the IC12 that the replenishment info was missing, so I fixed that. I also went to the PO25.6 and made sure the agreement had been released. I went back to MSCM and selected the RESEND option, but the order goes from Pending to failed again. Not sure what I'm missing or what I'm doing wrong.

Currently non-stocks are loaded in IC11 with both EA and BX for example. With EA being the stock UOM and BX being the BUOM for example. This requires us to pull out all of the items and assign a tracking flag of 2 to the BUOM. This allows the item to be loaded to IC81 but also allows users to change the UOM since both are valid UOM. We're hoping there's a better way to do this. Is there
