The Assign number of pallets window allows user to assign Pallet's quantity that will be used for On-hand Inventory left*. The user can also assign Pallet's quantity that will be used for repackaging Inventory.
*There cannot be less than one pallet left On-Hand. Pallet's quantity cannot be more than it was assigned for the current Inventory .
On-Hand pallet count field is locked:
1. If Master package for On-Hand Inventory is Pallet.
In the On-Hand pallet
count field the Pallet’s value for Inventory with Pallet as Master
Package Type will be the one left on-hand after Repackage Order is
performed. Consequently, the Inventory used will have the default value of
pallets that have been used.
For example, the user has 10 pallets of 25 cartons. If the user repacks 100 units of inventory (i.e. there will be 4 packages), after repackage there will be 6 pallets of 25 cartons (10 - 4). Thus, there will be quantity of 6 shown in the On-Hand pallet count field. And the value of 4 will be assigned by default to the Repackaged pallet count field.
2. If the whole Inventory is repackaged (i.e. "0" pallet is left on-hand).
3. If On-Hand Inventory has no Pallets assigned (i.e. "0" value), the On-Hand pallet count field will be locked. however, the user can assign the value of pallets for repackaged Inventory in the Repackaged pallet count field.
Repackaged pallet count field is locked:
1. If Master Package for repackaging Inventory is Pallet.
If both fields are locked, Assign number of pallets window will not be shown at all.
