Asm.-to-Order Shpt. Bin Code Field, Location Table

Specifies the bin where finished assembly items are posted to when they are assembled to a linked sales order. From this bin, the assembly items are shipped immediately, via an inventory pick, to fulfill the sales order. For more information, see “Handling Assemble-to-Order Items in Warehouse Shipments” in Warehouse Shipment.

Note

This field cannot be used if the location is set up to use directed pick and put-away.

The bin code is copied from the sales order line to the assembly order header to communicate to assembly workers where to place the output to ready it for shipping. It is also copied to the inventory pick line to communicate to warehouse workers where to take it from to ship it.

This setup is only possible for locations where the Bin Mandatory field is selected. If the Require Shipment field is selected, then the Asm.-to-Order Shpt. Bin Code field is not available.

Note

The Assemble-to-Order Shipment bin is always empty. When you post an assemble-to-order sales line, then the bin content is first positively adjusted with the assembly output. Immediately after, it is negatively adjusted with the shipped quantity.

Additional Information

The value in this field is automatically inserted in the Bin Code field on sales order lines that contain a quantity in the Qty. to Assemble to Order field or if the item to be sold has Assemble-to-Order in the Replenishment System field.

If the Asm.-to-Order Shpt. Bin Code is blank, then the From-Assembly Bin Code is used instead. If both setup fields are blank, then the last used bin with content is used in the Bin Code field on sales order lines.

The same bin code is in turn copied to the Bin Code field on the inventory pick line that manages the shipment of the assemble-to-order quantity. For more information, see “Handling Assemble-to-Order Items in Inventory Picks” in Inventory Pick.

Bin codes that are set up on location cards define a default warehouse flow for specific warehouse activities, such as consumption of components in an assembly area. Additional functionality exists to make sure that when items are placed in a default bin, they cannot be moved or picked to other activities. For more information, see Dedicated.
