We have been live with Mobile Supply Chain for about 18 months and are looking into finally starting a project on Advanced Ship Notices for our major distributor.
Anyone have any words of wisdom we should know about? Does MSCM play well with ASN or are we going to have issues? Anything you can tell me would be great. We held off on ASNs when we first went live with Lawson in '08 because testing with the distributor failed.
Today, we receive all of our perpetual inventory items for our main warehouse (from the dist) using Receiving Self Service. ASN should seem a natural progression from there .. .
Thanks! Michelle

Well, in my experience ASN (EDI 856 documents) and Mobile supply chain dont really have much to do with each other.
Our documents come in, we run MA531 daily, which receives what it can and produces an error report which must be worked with MA53. Once the errors are fixed, we run MA531 daily to pick up the records in the database and receive them or put them back in the database if there are additional errors.
MSCM lets you run PO30 on the handheld but that is a seperate process from the MA531 process used by EDI.

Thanks, Rick.
Does MA531 and the EDI process produce delivery documents as well?

You are getting a little out of my area of expertise, but here is what happens
MA531 runs.
Each record is processed and it either becomes a PO30 transaction, or it goes into the database as an error document.
If you have set up MA531 to release receivers, then the whole PO30 process runs automatically, part of which I beleive is the delivery document, but I am not certain.
If one record for a PO out of a set of records fails, then the entire PO goes into the database until the error on the one record is fixed. It is important that someone works those errors daily and that the MA531 picks up the errors daily.

Rick, Any comments on how your warehouse receivers handle this process would be appreciated. If you release the receivers and the delivery docs print, how do the warehouse receivers handle that? In other words, how do they match up the delivery documents with the packages for delivery to the departments? Do you get ASN's for multiple vendors or just your main distributor?
