Before short closing a sale order, the system checks if any of the line items have promotional items against them. In case of any item to be short closed, the promotional item has already been shipped, the system raises a debit note equal to the value of the item.
If the Item type is “Kit”, then the system retrieves the Primary Item in the Kit from “Item” business component. The system returns the quantity of each item in a single Kit from “Item” business component. Divide the total of each item shipped by the qty per kit. The value got for the Primary Item will be the qty of the Kit shipped. For the balance items, any qty above this quantity will be considered as excess shipment. In case of Item Type as “Model”, the system retrieves quantity of each item in one Model from “Model Configurator” business component. For each item in the model, divide the total quantity of that item shipped by the qty per model. The result for any item, which is flagged as "Ship-together”, will be the total qty of the model shipped. Any item shipped above this will be considered as excess shipment. The system raises a debit note equal to the value of the item.
The system closes all activities for the order number. It updates the order status to “Short Closed”.
