| # Confirm delivery/receipt for clusters In Freight Management, you can set the status of batches of cluster lines to Shipped or Completed. This option has been introduced to enable you to indicate the progress through warehousing and transport for cluster lines that are not linked to Warehouse Management. For cluster lines that are linked to Warehouse Management, some of the steps through warehousing and transport are updated by Warehouse Management, and some are updated by the user in this session. Note In this session, you can only process clusters and cluster lines that have at least the Actual status. Cluster lines related to freight orders created manually A cluster line related to a manually created freight order line is not linked to Warehouse Management. In this session, to indicate that the goods of a cluster line that is not linked to Warehouse Management have been loaded onto a truck or other vehicle and have left the warehouse, you must set the status to Shipped. To indicate that the goods have reached their destination, you must set the status to Completed. If you change the status of a freight order cluster line, which is not linked to Warehouse Management, the status of the relevant freight order line is also changed. If such a cluster line’s status is changed to Shipped, the Shipped Quantity field and the shipped capacity fields of the cluster line are filled by default with the values from the Planned Quantity field and the planned capacity fields. If a cluster line’s status is changed to Completed, the Delivered Quantity field and the delivered capacity fields of the cluster line are filled by default with the values from the Shipped Quantity field and the shipped capacity fields. In neither case are user entries overwritten. If required, you can manually change the values in these fields. Cluster lines related to freight orders created from originating orders A cluster line is linked to Warehouse Management if the cluster line is related to a freight order line that has an originating order. Outbound transport If the goods on the originating order are transported from a warehouse defined in Warehouse Management to a business partner, the transport is outbound. The outbound steps range from In Progress, Shipped, Completed to Closed.
