How does under delivery functionality works in Ax 2012

In real time business, there are scenarios where vendor delivers quantity in excess. To adjust the excess quantity in the same order, Ax provides a feature of under delivery acceptance. In system, we can define a set under delivery percentage against an item. When purchasing the item, system accepts the excess quantity considering the following formula;

Ordered item quantity+Under delivery % of ordered item quantity

Basic Steps::

2. Check, ‘Accept under delivery’ parameter is checked @ Procurement & sourcing  -> Setup -> Procurement & sourcing parameters -> Updates -> Accept under delivery

3. Check if under rdelivery % is defined against the respective item @ Released product details form

Under Delivery :::10  

In real time business we come across to the scenarios where we have to accept the delivery with the lesser quantity of what is actually ordered.

To perform this scenario in Ax 2012, refer the following steps;

• Navigate to Accounts payable -> Common -> Purchase orders -> All purchase orders
• Create a new PO with the quantity of 8
• Confirm the PO

Now you receive only 8 quantity out of 10 and no more item available with the vendor to deliver. You need to close the order with the acceptance of 8 quantity only.

For packing slip posting, click on menu button ‘Product receipt’

On packing slip form, mention receiving quantity as 8 in ‘Lines’ tab

On the same line in ‘Lines’ tab, check checkbox field ‘Close for receipt’ and click ‘Ok’

System post the packing slip with 8 quantity.

To confirm packing slip is posted and no delivery is remainder, navigate to menu button ‘General’ and click on ‘Line quantity’.

Delivery remainder field is blank i.e. no quantity is pending to deliver.

To make sure that under delivery functionality works fine.
