Symptom
For Transport Zone Zone1 there are two transport lanes Lane1 for Site1 and Lane2 for Site2 (where Zone1 is the Transport Zone ID , Lane1 and Lane2 are Transport Lane ID's, Site1 and Site 2 are Site ID's)
Lane1 & Lane2 are set with priority 1 and 2 respectively.
In a sales order 999 you expect that when there is no sufficient Stock in Site1, system should automatically propose Ship From as Site2 (999 is the Sales Order ID).
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
1. Go to Sales Order Workcenter and Sales Order View
2. Find Sales Order 999
3. Go to Line Items tab, Ship from is Site1
Cause
Transport lane priority is not based on stock availability.
Hence system does not automatically select the transport lane with the Site where the stock exists for the product to fulfill the sales order.
Resolution
Transport lane priority can be set based on product category/product but not on stock availability.
If the transport lane is made inactive or obsolete either temporarily /permanently for Business Reasons in which case the next priority of the transport lane is selected.
