Warehouse for reserving items

corbincavolt · January 7, 2017, 1:00am

Hi,

I tried searching for this before creating a new topic because I don’t want to waste anyone’s time, but I couldn’t really find much on it. Although I can kinda guess from the name, what exactly does the “Warehouse for reserving items” field do on the Production Order document and how do I enable it?

Thanks,

Corbin

@corbincavolt I guess its automatically set based on the Sales Order of the Production Order, to update the reserved quantity. I think it needs to be named in a better way!

@rmehta I ended up making an issue on GitHub about this because I dug into the code and it looks like it’s just the description for the “Source Warehouse” field (it’s positioning and font are kinda misleading for a description), although I could definitely be wrong. I notice that when I’m on the iOS mobile app, it doesn’t even show up (perhaps descriptions don’t show up in the mobile app?).

"Warehouse for reserving items" description looks like a separate field

When looking at the production order document, the spacing and the font of "Ware…house for reserving items" makes it appear like it's a separate field. After digging into the json, I realized that that's not the case, that it's just a description, but I can't imagine I'm the only one who's been confused by this. Is there anything we can do to either change the spacing so it's closer to "Source Warehouse" or change the font so it's better indicated that it's not its own field?
