Pick and ship items from a sales order

Completed

For simple order-to-order warehouse processes, the pick and shipment can be done from the sales order line. With this method, when the user creates a sales order, the program will automatically fill in the bin information on the order line. When the time comes to ship the order to the customer, a warehouse worker uses the specified bin code as an indication of where to find the item for picking. When the order is posted as shipped, the program will post the pick information as well so that the bin contents reflect that the items are taken from the bins.

The following scenario describes how to sell four units of item 1908-S to customer 10000 and then pick and ship them from location NORTH. If you want to complete this demonstration, it requires item 1908-S to be in stock with at least four units in bin N-01-001 in location NORTH.
