Cause
The Post Goods Issue screen does not provide an option for cancelling the system allocated stock to a particular line item. This screen is not persistent, limiting the control business users have over the activities.
Resolution
1. Create a warehouse request from the delivery proposal.
2. Manage the warehouse task.
3. In the warehouse task, cancel allocations by the system and redistribute the available stock to the line items of choice.
This process allows business users to have more control on how the stock is allocated to each line item.
