The Warehouse Management (WM) module provides an interface between the EliteSeries Warehouse Management System (Elite WMS) and the PointForce Enterprise (PFE) inventory system.

When integrating with Elite WMS, the PFE system relinquishes control of all inventory management to the Elite WMS system. We have modified some PFE programs and processes to keep the inventory in PFE synchronized with the Elite WMS. These changes are outlined in this document.

When you integrate Elite WMS with PFE:

• Transactional information is passed between the two systems to streamline invoicing and receiving processes.
• Orders and purchase orders are entered in PFE and then transferred (downloaded) to Elite WMS for shipping/receiving.
• The Elite WMS system is used to drive the picking and shipping of orders, receiving or POs/RMAs, and any inventory adjustments or physical inventories.
• Shipping and receiving information entered in Elite WMS is then transferred (uploaded) to PFE for the automatic generation of invoices for orders and controls for the receiving of stock.
• Stock adjustments and physical stock counts entered in Elite WMS are transferred (uploaded) to PFE to keep the inventory systems synchronized.

PFE continues to manage the following processes:

• Create, modify and delete the product master files:
  • Products (ibis_ici1.im13)
  • Quick Product Creation (ibis_im99)
  • Product Pack Information (ibis_im23) - for GTIN records

• Create, modify and delete purchase orders and in-transits:
  • P/O Entry (ibis_po40)
  • P/O Print (ibis_po42)
  • P/O Receipt and In-Transit (ibis_po60)

• Create, modify and delete RMAs:
  • RMA Entry (ibis_in67)

• Create, modify and delete sales orders:
  • Order and Quote Entry (ibis_oe30)
  • Order Scheduling (ibis_oe32) or Order Auto-Print Processor (ibis_oe33) or Order Management Order Scheduling and Printing (ibis_om33)

Elite WMS manages the inventory in the warehouse:

• Purchasing receipts
• In-transit receipts
• RMA receipts
• Filling and shipping of sales orders
• Inventory adjustments, inventory status changes and order status changes

In the following section, we will discuss the data that is transferred between PFE and Elite WMS:

1. Product Master Files

   When product master file data is transferred between PFE and Elite WMS, the following fields are sent (via the file in parenthesis):

   • Product Code (pm_f)
   • Desc Main Lang (description 1 and 2) (pm_f)
   • Desc Sec Lang (description 1 and 2) (xpm_f)
   • Product Type (pm_f)
   • Stock Unit (pm_f)
   • Commodity (pm_f)
   • Class (pm_f)
   • WMS Lot Control flag (pm_f)
   • WMS Serial Control flag (pm_f)
   • GTIN flagged as 'SKU Default' or 'Default Costing' in IM23 (pm_f)
   • All GTINs flagged as 'Transfer to WMS' in IM23 (al_f)

   Note: Elite WMS supports all product types with the exception of Family (FM).

   As you add a new product or update an existing product in PFE, this information is transferred to the warehouse in the Elite WMS system.

   • The initial download of product master data from PFE to Elite WMS is done using the WMS Inventory Transfers (ibis_wm10) program. This program updates Elite WMS with every inventory item set up in IM13.

   • If you create a new product or update an existing product in IM13, the information is transferred from PFE to Elite WMS every time you update IM13.

   • If you are updating the GTIN for a record flagged as 'Transfer to WMS' in IM23, the information is transferred from PFE to Elite WMS when you update the record.

   • When you run Class Code Report and Reset (ibis_im61) and the class codes are updated in IM13, the information is transferred from PFE to Elite WMS.

   • If you are utilizing the Quick Product Creation (ibis_im99) program, the product is sent to Elite WMS every time you update the IM99 record.

2. Purchase Orders

   Purchase orders are created in PFE, and are received in Elite WMS. Information is transferred from PFE to Elite WMS and then back again. At the same time, you may find it necessary to edit POs in PFE before they are received in the warehouse. This section also identifies when you can edit the PO in PFE and when locks are in place that block the edit of the PO in PFE.

   Note: There are two programs in PFE that allow you to create purchase orders: PO40 and OE30/Generated PO. Records created in both programs are transferred to Elite WMS.

   The following information is sent from the PO created PFE to Elite WMS (via the file in parenthesis):

   • PO number (ibom_f and ibod_f)
   • Supplier (ibom_f)
   • Supplier Name (ibom_f)
   • Order Date (ibom_f)
   • Required Date (ibom_f)
   • Arrival Date (ibom_f)
   • Order Line Number (ibod_f)
   • Product (ibod_f)
   • Quantity Ordered (ibod_f)
   • Expected Date (ibod_f)

   Here is a diagram that illustrates the interaction between PFE and Elite WMS for a purchase order:

   

   1. The information is transferred from PFE to Elite WMS when the PO is printed:
      • when you run PO42,
        OR
        
      • when the PO is printed/emailed/faxed from PO40 with the 'Treat this PO as Printed' flag is selected.

   2. The PO is available in the Inbound Order Planning view in Elite WMS.
      • You can recall the PO in PO40 until such a time as the PO has been flagged as 'Plan & Receive' in Elite WMS. When you recall the PO in PFE, it is removed from Elite WMS.

      • Note: When you have completed your edits to a recalled PO in PFE, you do not have to reprint the PO. The PO is sent back to Elite WMS when you click Clear in PO40. This only applies to POs that have been recalled.

      • Once the PO has been flagged as 'Plan & Receive', the PO is locked and can no longer be edited in PO40.

   3. When the inventory on the PO is received in Elite WMS, the status of the PO in the Inbound Order Receiving view is updated to 'Receive & Close'.

   4. The receipt information is transferred to PFE, and you can check the status of the PO in the WMS Receiving Verification Print (ibis_wm26) program.

      Note: WM26 includes the Elite WMS Receiving Slip number.

   5. In order to keep PFE in sync with the warehouse, you must receive the stock in PO60:
      • When you open the PO in PO60, the Quantity Received field on the 'Against PO' folder is available so that a parital receipt quantity can be manually modified.
        • Another receipt for the balance of the received quantity can be created in the same batch.

        • PFE will validate detail lines from each receipt in the batch against the WMS quantity received.
      • When the Update Batch button is pressed, all receipts within the batch are reviewed to make sure that the exact quantities received by the WMS are accounted for before allowing the update to proceed.

      • Note: We strongly recommend that you enter Receiving Slip number from WM26 in the Packing Slip field in PO60 for tracking/cross-reference purposes.

      • You can cancel all or any part of a line that is not received by Elite WMS. However, you cannot add more products to the receipt in PO60. The 'Without PO' folder is unavailable.

      • Note: If a PO is partially received in Elite WMS, and the partial receipt is received in PO60 (i.e. the balance of the line is not fully cancelled), a new record for the balance of the receipt is sent to Elite WMS once PO64 is accepted. If the balance of the line is fully cancelled, then the line is not sent back to WMS once PO64 is accepted.

3. In-Transits

   When you are processing in-transit items from a purchase order, you must create the in-transit in PFE before any stock is received against the PO in Elite WMS. Note: You cannot put a PO into in-transit status if the PO has been received (fully or partially) by Elite WMS. If there is an outstanding balance on a line from a regular receipt when PO64 is accepted, then you can put the balance of that line into in in-transit receipt.

   Here is a diagram that illustrates the interaction between PFE and Elite WMS for an in-transit:

   

   1. POs with an in-transit status in PFE do not need to be printed in PO40/42. The in-transit information is sent from PFE to Elite WMS when you run PO60.

   2. The in-transit is available in the Inbound Order Planning view in Elite WMS.
      • You can recall the in-transit in PO60 until such a time as the in-transit has been flagged as 'Plan & Receive' in Elite WMS. The order quantity for in-transits can be increased or decreased. Once PO60 is updated, the new quantity is written to Elite WMS. If you reduce the order quantity to zero in PO60 (cancelling the order), the record is removed from Elite WMS.
        • Note: You cannot add more products to the in-transit in PO60. The 'Without PO' folder is unavailable.

      • Once the in-transit has been flagged as 'Plan & Receive', the in-transit is locked and can no longer be edited in PO60.

   3. When the inventory on the in-transit is received in Elite WMS, the status of the in-transit in the Inbound Order Receiving view is updated to 'Receive & Close'.

   4. The receipt information is transferred to PFE, and you can check the status of the in-transit in the WMS Receiving Verification Print (ibis_wm26) program.

      Note: WM26 includes the Elite WMS Receiving Slip number.

   5. In order to keep PFE in sync with the warehouse, you must receive the in-transit to stock in PO63.
      • When an in-transit received via the Elite WMS warehouse is entered in PO63, the following message displays: "Receipt xxxxx Line has been received by WM as Pack Slip xxxxxx – receipt packslip will be changed. OK". The packing slip entered in PO60 for the in-transit will be replaced by the Elite WMS Receiving Slip number from WM26.

   6. Note: If an in-transit is partially received in Elite WMS, the balance of the in-transit is set to zero.

4. RMAs

   RMAs are created in PFE and are received in Elite WMS. Note: RMAs can be received in Elite WMS once. New RMAs must be created for products not received by Elite WMS. For example, if you enter two products on an RMA and Elite WMS only receives one product, the second product is removed from the RMA when it is sent back to PFE. If the second product is being returned (at a later date), a new RMA must be created.

   Here is a diagram that illustrates the interaction between PFE and Elite WMS for an RMA:

   

   1. You create the RMA in IN67.
      • Detail lines must have a TAT code that does not update inventory.
        Note: Since all WMS RMA returns automatically move the returned quantity into the "Hold/Return" warehouse, PFE manages these returns by receiving a special adjustment record to increase the quantity in the "Hold/Return" warehouse. Once inventory is deemed either valid (return to stock) or garbage (dispose of), the Elite WMS system will transfer the quantity from Hold to the main Elite WMS warehouse and PFE will receive the adjustment accordingly, or the Elite WMS system will dispose of the inventory in the Hold warehouse and an adjustment to reduce the Hold/Return warehouse will flow to PFE accordingly.

      • You cannot assign a status of 'WMS' to a product line on the RMA. The WMS status is automatically assigned an RMA once it has been received by Elite WMS.

      • Comment lines and/or supplementary charges are not sent to Elite WMS.

   2. RMAs are transferred from PFE to Elite WMS when IN69 is accepted.

   3. The RMA is available in the Inbound Order Planning view in Elite WMS.
      • You can recall the RMA in IN67 until such a time as the RMA has been flagged as 'Plan & Receive' in Elite WMS. When you recall the RMA in PFE, it is removed from Elite WMS.

      • Note: When you have completed your edits to a recalled RMA in PFE, you do not have to reprint the RMA. The RMA is sent back to Elite WMS when you run IN67. This only applies to recalled RMAs that have already been printed.

   4. Once the RMA has been flagged as 'Plan & Receive' on the Inbound Order Planning view in Elite WMS, the RMA is locked and you can no longer edit the RMA in IN67 in PFE.

   5. When the inventory on the RMA is received in Elite WMS, the status of the RMA in the Inbound Order Receiving view is updated to 'Receive & Close'.

   6. The receipt of the RMA is transferred back to PFE. You can check the status of the RMA in IN67: an RMA with a status of 'WMS' indicates that the RMA has been received by the Elite WMS warehouse.

   7. You can optionally run the Outstanding RMA Print (ibis_in68), and filter by the 'WMS' status in order to view a list of all RMAs that have been received by the Elite WMS warehouse.

   8. You can create the "RMA" invoices, credit notes and/or sales orders in IN41 and OE30.
      • RMA invoices do not update inventory because the TAT code is always set to one that does not update inventory.

   9. Elite WMS controls the inventory from the RMA. Once items from the RMA are received, the stock is moved to the 'Hold' warehouse. Note: The 'Hold' warehouse is set up in Company Control Initialization (ibis_cc00/Warehouse Management System) for the Elite WMS warehouse.
      • The RMA stock can be optionally moved to the Elite WMS warehouse via the Inventory Status Modification view.

      • Note: The hold code 'PRMA' must be set up in Elite WMS before entering RMAs.

   10. Note: If you recall an RMA in IN67 that has been received in Elite WMS, the following conditions apply:
       • You can update the following fields on the RMA in PFE: Price, Per, Discount, TAT code, and/or Reason.

       • You can add comments and supplementary charges.

       • The 'Status' field is updated to 'WMS'. The RMA was created with a different status and that status is overridden and cannot be modified.

       • You cannot add new product lines, nor can you delete product lines from the RMA. The line level Delete button is disabled.

       • The Generate RMA button is disabled.

       • You can delete the RMA. Product lines not received by Elite WMS will be removed from the RMA with the exception of Model Headers; Model Headers are not received by Elite WMS and must be dealt with accordingly in PFE.

       • Product lines not received by Elite WMS are removed from the RMA with the exception of Model Headers. Model Headers are not received by Elite WMS and must be dealt with accordingly in PFE.

5. Sales Orders

   Sales Orders are created in OE30 for an Elite WMS warehouse and are sent to Elite WMS once the orders have been scheduled in OE32, OE33 or OM33. The orders are filled in the Elite WMS warehouse and the data is returned to the PFE invoicing module so that invoices can be created.

   Here is a diagram that illustrates the interaction between PFE and Elite WMS for a sales order:

   

   1. You create the Sales Order in OE30:
      • The Pack and Mark Separately field on the OE30/General folder is automatically selected if the customer has this flag selected in SU13. You can manually select or de-selected this flag as required.

      • Detail lines on the sales order must have:
        • A positive shippable value.
        • A TAT code that updates inventory.

      • Note: Supplementary Charges are not sent to Elite WMS, but are retained for subsequent invoicing in PFE.

      • The following comments are sent to Elite WMS:
        • General comments entered on the OE30/Lines folder.
        • Detail comments entered on the OE30/Lines folder.
        • Message entered in SU24 for the customer and flagged as 'Yes' print on OE34.
        • Product compliance messages defined in OE06/Default Warehouse Message folder and flagged as 'Whse Sales Order Detail'.
        • Customer compliance messages defined in OE07/Default Warehouse Message folder and flagged as 'Whse Sales Order Detail'.
        • Customer/Ship To compliance messaged defined in OE08/Default Warehouse Message folder and flagged as 'Whse Sales Order Detail'.

   2. The information is transferred from PFE to Elite WMS when sales order is scheduled in OE32, OE33 or OM33.
      • All sales orders are sent from PFE to Elite WMS with Emergency set to 0-regular.

      • Sales orders sent to Elite WMS are sent with the Payment Method set as follows:
        1. When payment 1 is 'on account', the payment method in WMS is set to 1-Regular.

        2. When payment 1 is an EFT payment method, the payment method in WMS is set to 4-Credit Card.

        3. When payment 1 and 2 are EFT payment methods, the payment method in WMS is set to 4-Credit Card.

        4. When payment 1 is an EFT payment method and payment 2 is 'on account', the payment method in WMS is set to 4-Credit Card.

   3. The sales order is available in the Outbound Order Planning view in Elite WMS.
      • You can recall the sales order in OE30 until such a time as the sales order has been flagged as 'Plan & Release' in the Wave Management view (see the next step).

      • When you recall the order in PFE via OE67 or OE30, the order is removed from Elite WMS. Note: When the changes to the order are complete, you must re-schedule the order via OE32, OE33 or OM33 in order to transfer the revised order back to Elite WMS.

      • If you cancel an order in Elite WMS, the order is sent back to PFE with a 'Manual Hold' flag.

   4. The sales order is flagged as 'Plan & Release' in the Wave Management view.
      • The sales order is now locked and can no longer be edited in OE30.

   5. The sales order is available on the Pick List Complete view. The sales order is picked in the warehouse.

   6. The sales order is available on the Shipment Complete view. The sales order is picked and the shippable quantities, freight charges (if applicable) and tracking numbers (if applicable) are transferred from Elite WMS to PFE. Note: Sales Orders created via EDI in WMS often have more than one Bill of Lading. PFE accepts sales orders with multiple BOLs from WMS.

   7. The order shipped from Elite WMS is available in IN41 with the shippable quantities, freight charges (if applicable) and tracking numbers (if applicable).
      • Freight charges are added by Elite WMS when the order is shipped (if applicable). When the invoice is generated, the freight added to the order is applied to the Freight Supplementary Charge code defined in CC00/WMS for the Elite WMS warehouse.

      • You can delete the invoice, however the order cannot be recalled in OE67 and it cannot be deleted in OE30.

You must set up the following programs in PFE in order to successfully run the WMS interface:

1. Company Control Initialization (ibis_cc00/Warehouse Management Interface)

   For an Elite WMS interface, you must set the 'WMS Version' field to Elite WMS and complete the 'Elite WMS Parameters' section.

   The information for the following fields is provided by the Elite WMS:

   • Server
   • SQL Instance
   • Database
   • User
   • Password
   • WMS Environment

   The information for the following fields is determined by the PFE user:

   • Transfer SKU's GTIN from – determines the program from which the 'default SKU' GTIN record will be selected. You can select either:
     1. Default SKU Record - the GTIN flagged as the 'Default SKU' record in IM23 is transferred to the Elite WMS system as the product's default SKU record. (Note: This record must also be flagged as 'Transfer to WMS' in IM23.)
     2. Default Costing Record - the GTIN flagged as the 'Default Costing' record in IM23 is transferred to the Elite WMS system as the product's default SKU record. (Note: This record must also be flagged as 'Transfer to WMS' in IM23.)

   • Transfer UOM GTINs - determines whether or not GTIN dimensions and weight are transferred to the UOM fields in the Elite WMS Item Master. This field is only available when the WMS Version is set to Elite WMS 8.4 (or higher). Note: If you are working with Elite WMS 8.4, up to 4 UOMs are transferred per GTIN. If you are working with Elite WMS 9.1 or higher, up to 6 UOMs are transferred.

     Valid transfer UOM GTINs options include:

     1. Never - dimensions and weight are never transferred to the UOM fields in the Elite WMS Item Master. Note: When this option is selected, the UOM1 field in EliteSeries WMS is populated with the stock unit from IM13 and the UOM dimension fields are blank. Elite WMS controls the package dimensions.
     2. UOM GTIN Qty + Measurements - the UOM designation, GTIN, and associated dimensions and weight are transferred to the corresponding UOM, GTIN, etc. fields in the Elite WMS Item Master. Note: Dimensions and weight are required for GTINs flagged with a UOM.

   • Hold Warehouse – the warehouse entered here is the PFE warehouse in which RMA items and inventory flagged to be held will be stored. Inventory is moved from the 'hold' warehouse to the associated Elite WMS warehouse when the hold is removed in the Elite WMS system.

   • Add Tracking NOs to Invoice - the tracking numbers from the Elite WMS system are printed on the invoice generated from the shipment of the sales order when this field is selected.

2. WMS Adjustment Mappings (ibis_wm02)

   Adjustment codes must be mapped between Elite WMS and PFE so that inventory is kept synchronized between the two systems. Inventory adjustments made by warehouse personnel in the Elite WMS warehouse management system must be transferred so the corresponding adjustment can be made in PFE. The Elite WMS system comes with a number of different adjustment codes. The WM02 program enables you to relate an Elite WMS adjustment code to an adjustment code in PFE (maintained in Inventory Adjustment Codes (ibis_im03)). You can match a single Elite WMS adjustment code to multiple PFE Adjustment codes.

3. Ship Via WMS Carrier Mappings (ibis_SU04)

   To allow orders to be processed in Elite WMS, PFE Ship Via codes must be mapped to a carrier service codes in the Elite WMS warehouse management system. You can map a single PFE ship via code to multiple WMS Carrier codes.

   • Note: If you use a PFE ship via code in an order that is not mapped to an Elite WMS carrier service code, the order will be caught in an error in Elite WMS and the problem must be corrected before the order can be processed. For more information, see the Ship Via WMS Carrier Mappings help topic (ibis_su04).

You must run the following programs in PFE in order to send/receive data to/from Elite WMS:

1. WMS Data Transfer Servers (ibis_wm32) – in order to send data from PFE to Elite WMS, WM32 must be running.

2. WMS Upload Transaction Processors (ibis_wm33) – in order to receive data from Elite WMS to PFE, WM33 must be running (as well as WM32).

   Note: You should run both programs all of the time. Both programs should be run on your console and checked frequently; the programs check for new data every 15 seconds.

   In order to recall a sales order, purchase order or RMA in OE30, PO40 or IN67, both WM32 and WM33 must be running. If WM32 and/or WM33 are not running, the following message displays: "WM32 and WM33 must both be started before Sales Orders/Purchase Orders or RMAs for WMS warehouses can be recalled. Please make sure both WM32 and WM33 are started and try again. OK".

   • This warning message will not display if WM32 or WM33 are in error, or if WM32 or WM33 are behind in processing.

Elite WMS cannot accept products with the following characters:

• The Product Code field cannot contain the following characters: " { . , / ( ) * & < >

• The Description fields cannot contain the following characters: ^ < >

  Prior to exporting products to Elite WMS, a search should be done for these characters. Products containing these characters should be recoded via the normal recode/merge process. (You can also contact your Tecsys SMB representative for a pass program that searches for and replaces these characters.)

Models/Assembled Sets are supported by the Elite WMS interface:

• However, there are times when a component is short shipped, i.e. Elite WMS allocates the order for picking but when the picker reaches the bin(s) they must short ship a component. For more details on how PFE processes the back order and invoice for the short shipped component(s), click here.

General Notes on the Hold Warehouse defined in CC00/Warehouse Management Interface:

• You cannot select the Hold Warehouse as the 'active' warehouse/sales office in the following programs: OE30, IN41, RS41, IN67, PO40, PO60, PO34 and CC03.

• The system allows you to select the select the Hold Warehouse as the default warehouse in IC45, SA49 and SU45, however the following error message displays: "Warehouse 'Hold Warehouse code' is a WMS hold warehouse defined in CC00/WMS and cannot be set as the default warehouse. OK".

 
Importing GTINs from PFE to Elite WMS

If you are importing GTINs with UOM information from PFE to Elite WMS, the following programs must be set up/used as outlined in the following list:

1. Company Control Initialization (ibis_cc00/Warehouse Management System)
   • You must have the Transfer UOM GTINs field set to UOM GTIN Qty + Measurements.

2. Import File Mappings (ibis_cc83)

   The following list includes the 'rules' for importing products with GTINs using the WMSGTIN file:

   1. In CC83, you must use WMSGTIN mapping to import POGTINs.

   2. The UOM field must be the last field on the import mappings.

   3. If using UOMs:
      • UOMs must be entered on the import in sequence for each product/supplier.
      • UOM 1 must have an inner and SKU equal to 1.
      • Cannot have missing UOMs.
      • Must enter a GTIN description.
      • Weights and dimensions (length, width and height) must be entered.
      • Inner and SKU must increase for each UOM used.
      • Transfer to WMS flag must be set to Yes.
      • Product cannot be in the WMS warehouse or WMS hold warehouse.
      • Product cannot exist on open orders, purchase order or RMAs.

   4. There are a number of fields that CC83 does not check; if incorrect data is entered, the record will error in stg_pm_f in WMS:
      • Duplicate GTIN descriptions for the UOMs. Each UOM should have a different GTIN description.
      • Weights and dimensions must increase with each UOM.
      • Each UOM must have a unique GTIN.

 
Dedicated Sales Orders/Purchase Orders (OE30/PO40)

For dedicated sales orders and/or purchase orders created in an Elite WMS warehouse, the following modifications have been made to prevent inventory issues in EliteSeries WMS:

1. Order and Quote Entry (ibis_oe30):

   When generating a dedicated PO from the sales order (using the Generate PO button), only the Total Quantities Ordered radio button is available on the Generate POs window:

   

   Once a sales order is dedicated to a PO, you can no longer:

   • modify the quantity of a product on an existing product line;
   • add products to the sales order; and,
   • delete existing products from the sales order.

   You can delete the entire sales order using the icon, however the following message displays:

   

   In order to delete the dedicated sales order, the following conditions exist:

   1. If the purchase order has not been sent to Elite WMS, you can delete the sales order.

   2. If the purchase order has been sent to Elite WMS, but the PO has not been received, you can recall the PO via PO40 and then delete the sales order.

   3. If the purchase order has been sent to Elite WMS and receiving has been started (or is complete), you can delete the sales order however an Inventory Status Modification action needs to be taken in Elite WMS against the inventory associated with the sales order to remove User Code 1.

2. P/O Entry (ibis_po40):

   For POs that are dedicated to sales orders (from an Elite WMS warehouse):

   • The Link Current PO to Sales Order icon is disabled for Elite WMS warehouses.

   • Products on the dedicated PO can be modified, added, or deleted, however the link to the sales order will be permanently broken. The following message displays when you attempt to add, modify or delete an existing product line on a dedicated PO: "This purchase order is dedicated to sales order xxxxxx. You may not add, change, or delete any lines while the link to sales order exists. Do you wish to break the link in order to change the P.O. lines? Note that breaking the link is permanent, you cannot link the sales order and the purchase order again. Yes/No".

 
Known Limitations

The following list identifies the known limitations of the interface between PFE and Elite WMS:

• Product recode/merge is not supported.

• Lot/serial controlled products are minimally supported.
  • The PFE package lot/serial flags are not available for Elite WMS products. Two new flags were created for the product in IM13 (Tecsys WMS 'Lot Control' and 'Serial Control') to indicate if the product is lot or serial controlled within Elite WMS.

• Ship To Address 'City' - PFE is only sending the first 20 characters of the CITY field to Elite WMS from SU13, SU14 and OE30.

• Warehouse transfers:
  • The interface supports transfers between a WMS controlled warehouse and a non-WMS controlled warehouse. (Also supports transfers between two non-WMS controlled warehouses, as per normal processing.)

  • The interface does not support transfers between two WMS controlled warehouses, or from a non-WMS controlled warehouse to a WMS controlled warehouse. For a manual process that allows you to transfer between 2 WMS controlled warehouses or from a non-WMS warehouse to a WMS-controlled warehouse, please see the WMS Branch Transfers topic.
