Installed Base

Hi All,

While using "Installed Base Unified-R17024" batch program to load Sales Orders into Installed Base, is it necessary that Sales Order should be with last status "560".(after shipment)

My Sales Order is invoiced and while using this upload program, I am geting errors.

No, you don not have to run it at last status 560 but it must be run after
shipment as serial numbers are attached at ship confirm. I have our
installed base unified setup to process at 620/999 for serialized items
since we aren't purging sales detail to history. R17024 does set the status
to 999/999 for the sales detail line.

Data Select over the status is a good thing, especially if you are using non-serialized items. If you don't, it is easy to process the same sales order detail lines repeatedly and create many installed base record by mistake. But, as the other reply stated, if they are serialized, the sales order needs to be ship confirmed so the serial numbers can be available.

If you are still experiencing errors, what exactly are the errors you are receiving?

Hi,

Thanks very much.
I my question was that can I run Installed Base Batch update - Unified program after I have invoiced the Sales Order or strictly I have to run the Installed Base ... only after Sales Order shipment.

Thanks,
Mangesh.
