Symptom
The ship-from party changes automatically after performing the ATP check.
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Sales Orders work center.
- Go to the Sales Orders view.
- Show All Orders and Find XYZ (XYZ represents the ID of the sales order).
- Select the sales order XYZ and choose Edit button.
- Select the View All button and go to the General tab.
- The sales order has picked ABC as default Ship-From party (ABC represents the ID of the ship-from party).
- Manually change the Ship-From party to DEF (DEF represents the ID of the ship-from party).
- Go to the Items tab and choose the Check Availability button for performing ATP check.
- The Ship-From party again changed to ABC automatically.
Cause
This situation will only occur if you change the ship-from party manually in the sales order and try to do ATP check. In this case system will always return the default ship-from party.
Resolution
It is suggested not to change the Ship-From party manually, instead you can use the Assign Source of Supply button for assigning a new supplier or Ship-From location:
- Go to the Sales Orders work center.
- Go to the Sales Orders view.
- Create a New Sales Order.
- Add the mandatory details and select the View All button.
- Go to the Items tab.
- Select the line item:
- Instead of changing the Ship-From party manually, use the button Assign Source of Supply and add the party from the list in the pop-up screen.
- Do ATP check using Check Availability button.
- Save the sales order.
