Enhancements/Modifications

With this release of the Aptean Packaging extension,

A new public procedure, UpdatePackagingAfterQtyToShipChange, has been added to the RecalculatePackagingFDW codeunit. Extensions that change the Qty. to Ship field on a sales order line from AL code can call this procedure to update the packaging lines and packaging transactions of the sales order line. A manual change of the Qty. to Ship field in the user interface continues to update the packaging automatically.

The system correctly calculates and posts packaging for negative lines that you create with the Create Negative Line action on purchase orders and sales orders. Packaging for negative lines is generated separately from the packaging for the original positive lines, so the quantities of positive and negative lines do not affect each other, and the packaging entries that are posted for returns carry the correct negative quantity, and the same behavior applies when the Packaging Calculation Method is set to Manual calculation. For more information, see Packaging for negative lines.

The system integrates with the Aptean Mobile Warehouse Registration (MWR) extension to update Order Bound Shipping Container packaging transactions using the Shipping Container recorded on the License Plate header. The integration applies when the Inbound - Order Bound or Outbound - Order Bound checkbox is cleared on the Register Packaging Setup page.

For inbound transactions, when Transfer Scan Data is run after a warehouse receipt is registered through Mobile Warehouse Registration, the system updates the Qty. to Post of the Order Bound Shipping Container packaging transaction. This applies to purchase receipts, inbound transfer receipts, and sales return receipts.

For outbound transactions, the system updates the Order Bound Shipping Container packaging transaction when a pick is registered directly on the mobile device after the warehouse pick is scanned.

When a Pick License Plate is created on the mobile device and the Outbound - Order Bound checkbox is cleared on the Register Packaging Setup page, the user is prompted to scan or enter the Shipping Container code. The system validates the code and saves it on the Pick License Plate header.

For more information, see Integration with Aptean Mobile Warehouse Registration.

The system integrates with the Aptean License Plating (LPL) extension to update Order Bound Shipping Containers automatically in the packaging transactions using the Shipping Container recorded on the License Plate header. The integration applies when the Inbound - Order Bound or Outbound - Order Bound checkbox is cleared on the Register Packaging Setup page.

For Inbound Transactions, the Shipping Container selected during the Create License Plate process is associated with the License Plate and is used to update the Qty. to Post of the Order Bound Shipping Container in the packaging transactions. This applies to Purchase Order, Purchase Invoice, Sales Return Order, and Sales Credit Memo.

For Outbound Transactions at Warehouse locations, when a License Plate is assigned in Warehouse Pick, the selected Shipping Container associated with the License Plate is used to update the corresponding Order Bound Shipping Container packaging transaction when the Warehouse Pick is registered.

For Outbound Transactions at Direct Locations, when License Plates are assigned on the Item Tracking Lines, the selected Shipping Container associated with the License Plate is used to update the corresponding Order Bound Shipping Container packaging transaction. This applies to Sales Order, Purchase Return Order, and Purchase Credit Memo.

The integration applies to License Plate-tracked items and to Shipping Containers that are not set up as Item Bound on the Default Item Packaging page. Shipping Units and lot-tracked items continue to use the standard packaging calculation.

For more information, see Integration with Aptean License Plating.

The system integrates with the Aptean Weigh Scale (WSC) extension to update the applicable Order Bound Shipping Containers and Shipping Units automatically in the packaging transactions using transferred Weight Scale Entries. The integration applies when the Inbound - Order Bound or Outbound - Order Bound checkbox is cleared on the Register Packaging Setup page.
When the Use Packaging for Receipt Weigh Scale or Use Packaging for Shipment Weigh Scale setting is enabled on the Item Card, and the corresponding Receipt Default Weigh Scale or Shipment Default Weigh Scale is configured on the Location Card, the system automatically updates the applicable Order Bound Shipping Containers and Shipping Units.

For more information, see Integration with Aptean Weigh Scale.

UI/UX changes

On the Mobile Warehouse Registration device, a prompt to scan or enter the Shipping Container code appears when a Pick License Plate is created and the Outbound - Order Bound toggle is turned off on the Register Packaging Setup page.
System validation displays an error if the code entered is not a valid Shipping Container packaging code.
When the user executes Assign Pick License Plate No., the system prompts the user to select the Shipping Container for the new Pick License Plate when Outbound - Order Bound is cleared in Register Packaging Setup.

If the Outbound - Order Bound toggle is turned on, the scan prompt is skipped and the default Shipping Container behavior applies.

Resolved issues

The following issues have been resolved in this release.

ID	Description
394284	The system fails to automatically calculate the packaging quantities on the Warehouse Shipment page after the warehouse pick is registered. This issue arises when the Packaging Calculation Method field on the Packaging Setup page is set to Manual.
387770	The system displays an incorrect Quantity on the Packaging Order Line after the Unit of Measure is changed.
392098	The system incorrectly evaluates the Register Packaging Setup against the document header Location Code instead of the document line Location Code when Packaging Location by is set to Document Line.
394148	The system allows a Shipping Unit to be selected as the Shipping Container Code when creating a License Plate, even though the lookup is filtered to Shipping Containers. As a result, an invalid Shipping Unit can be added through the + New action and accepted as the Shipping Container for the License Plate without any validation error.
394712	The system does not correctly decrement the Qty. to Post for an Order Bound Shipping Container when an existing License Plate is reassigned from one Purchase Order line to another, replacing a newly created License Plate.
