Key Bug Fixes:
Cycle count issue after SKU Scan
Previously, while performing cycle count by scanning each piece for SKU's without lottables, users encountered an error message requesting a lot number selection. With this change, the system will now automatically create a new lot without the need to click the "+" button, making the cycle count process smoother and more efficient for non-lottable SKUs.
Navigation: WMS app>>Inventory >>Cycle Count
Qty Mismatch in Manifest Report for B2B orders
The LPN quantity was incorrectly displayed on an order-wise basis in the manifest export report for B2B orders, leading to discrepancies.
This has been fixed. The LPN quantity is now correctly calculated and displayed in the manifest export report on an order-wise basis for B2B orders.
This fix ensures accurate reporting of LPN quantities in the manifest export.
