Allocation remains after linkage to production order is removed

Hello,

We have a Sales Order(#1) with a linked production order.  We have QTY in stock and wish to ship against another sales order(#2).  We removed the linkage between the SO(#1) and the production order.  However, when we look at the Inventory Allocation details screen, it still shows the QTY is allocated to this Sales order(#1) with allocation type “SO Allocated”.

We were hoping breaking the linkage to the production order would remove the allocation.

How do we eliminate the allocation so we can ship against the other Sales Order(#2)?

@ltussing03 - did you unlink this from the Production order/References tab? If so please log a case with Support.

Debbie,

Thanks for the response!

Yes I did the unlink from the production order/references tab.

I believe it should have eliminated the allocation.

However, I found a work around.

In the Sales Order Screen:

Highlight the line and click “Line Details”

Then clear the “Allocated” check box.

An extra step, but it seems to work.

Thanks!

Larry
