		<List><ListIntro>To enable supply of a warehouse of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/typw#wip" role="enum">Shop Floor</GUIRef> type using the kanban supply system, in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd2110s000" role="session">Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000)</GUIRef> session, define the following master data:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem><GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd2110s000#whwmd210.sups" role="formfield">Supply System</GUIRef>: <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/sups#kanban" role="enum">KANBAN</GUIRef>.</ListItem>

Whether the supply takes place from a work center or a supplier depends on the item type: <List><ListItem>If the item type is <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/kitm#purchase" role="enum">Purchased</GUIRef>, supply must take place from a supplier. A buy-from business partner and a ship-from business partner can be specified from which the supply must take place. If no buy-from business partner and ship-from business partner are specified, SSA ERP retrieves the item's default supplier from the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/ipu/tdipu0110m000" role="session">Item - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>If the item type is <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/kitm#manufacture" role="enum">Manufactured</GUIRef>, supply must take place from a work center.

		<Paragraph>To create and maintain label layouts for labels to be used for kanban, use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5520m000" role="session">Label Layouts (whwmd5520m000)</GUIRef> session. In this session, to create or modify label text, select the appropriate label layout, then click <HTML:IMG SRC="../images/Start_the_Text_Editor.gif" height="22" width="27" xmlns:ssa="http://www.ssaglobal.com" xmlns:HTML="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"/> or press CTRL-T. For more information, refer to <Link href="/baanerp/wh/onlinemanual/000322" role="manual">Label setup</Link>.</Paragraph>

	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Order generation</SectionTitle>
		<Paragraph>During production, a kanban supply order must be created manually. You must visually verify that the bin is empty and should be replenished. The replenishment is started by means of <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh2200m000" role="session">Generate Orders (KANBAN) (whinh2200m000)</GUIRef> session, which can be activated from the <GUIRef href="" role="menu">Specific</GUIRef> menu in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh2100m000" role="session">Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000)</GUIRef> session. When the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh2200m000" role="session">Generate Orders (KANBAN) (whinh2200m000)</GUIRef> session is started you only need to either scan or manually enter the label attached to the bin, or enter the item and warehouse and choose <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Generate</GUIRef>. You can change the default values before you choose <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Generate</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh2200m000" role="session">Generate Orders (KANBAN) (whinh2200m000)</GUIRef> session you can use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh2200m000#proc.trans.order" role="formfield">Process Transfer Orders</GUIRef> check box to specify whether the created order must be processed directly. If the check box is selected, the automatic activities of the outbound and inbound procedures that are linked to the <Link href="/baanerp/wh/glossary/glossary#000009" role="glossary">warehousing-order type</Link>, are executed immediately. To enable SSA ERP to carry out the procedure automatically, you must define a warehousing-order type with only the outbound procedure containing the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh4201m000" role="session">Generate Outbound Advice (whinh4201m000)</GUIRef> step, and the other procedures empty. Because automatic print steps in the shipment procedure do not stop the direct processing, they may also be included.</Paragraph>
		<List><ListIntro>The following types of kanban orders can be generated:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem><Link href="/baanerp/wh/glossary/glossary#000388" role="glossary" Update="No">Warehousing orders</Link> of type <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/inh.oorg#transfer.man" role="enum">Transfer (Manual)</GUIRef>, if supply must take place from a warehouse.
