Post output on the scanner

  8. An error message will tell you not to exceed the quantity of the Item Unit of Measure for the Default Pallet UOM, in the Adv. Warehouse Setup.
    The LPN Quantity Inbound Restriction on the item or in the Adv. Warehouse Setup, is the trigger for the error, in this company it is set on Single Lot No. What means you can only have 1 Lot No per License Plate No and the quantity can never exceed the full pallet quantity. This setup, of course, does not apply to Mix pallets.
