DCM 4.5 adjustInventory API issue --> How to reduce INTRANSIT inventory record receipt.

Resolving The Problem

If you are doing the receipt at a buyer's node against some expected Intransit inventory you should be passing the following input XML. This will result in the INTRANSIT qty being decremented and the ONHAND qty being incremented. All the attributes of the INTRANSIT record such as ShipbyDate, LotNumber, ETA should ALL be passed.


<Items>
<Item AccountNo="" AdjustmentType="RECEIPT" Availability="TRACK" Currency="" ETA="" FromETA="20020617" FromLotNumber="L001" FromShipByDate="25000101" FromSupplyReference="SR1" FromSupplyReferenceType="SRT1" FromSupplyType="INTRANSIT" ItemID="AOL_ITEM1_LC" LotAttribute1="" LotAttribute2="" LotAttribute3="" LotKeyReference="" LotNumber="NL001" ManufacturingDate="" ProductClass="" Quantity="5" ReasonCode="" ReasonText="" Reference_1="r1" Reference_2="" Reference_3="" Reference_4="" Reference_5="" ShipByDate="" ShipNode="B1N1_AOL" SupplyType="ONHAND" UnitCost="" UnitOfMeasure="" />
</Items>

If you wish to reduce the Intransit qty without doing a receipt against it. Then pass the Adjustement_type as "ADJUSTMENT" (instead of receipt) and the SupplyType = "INTRANSIT" with the other parameters such as ETA, ShipbyDate, Lot Number etc.
