Just an odd experience as my logistics department are scratching their heads as much as me.
Previously in 10.2.300 we used to be able to add multiple packing slip numbers to the filter in print dialog, but in 2024.2 there doesn’t seem to be an option to add or search for more in the filter section.
Am I missing something or has it been removed or moved elsewhere?
Printing one by one is a source of multiple frustrations.
Edit: there is an option to mass print AR invoices which works much the same, so have cleared that issue.
When you use the search in the pack slip filter you should be able to pick many. Even if you type in one, then you should be able to go back and type another one and it will add another little blue search chip.
I thought this was perhaps because, watching the event, it is showing that this is being opened via CustShipTracker (even though I’m actually using Customer Shipment Entry)?
I customized (overrode) the event to open with CustShipEntry… but same result. Still greyed out.
@aseidel The easiest way around this is to create a new menu to enable a Mass Print.
Search for the Erp.UIRpt.PackingSlipPrint “process” in menu maintenance…
Copy it to current company
Give it a new MenuID if you want.
Change Module to “UD”
Give it a Parent Menu ID of the menu where you want to find it. Because this is a “Process”, if you just copy the menu, you still won’t see it unless you change the parent to a menu folder.
Example, I set mine to SRMN1000… this is “Material Management > Shipping / Receiving > General Operations”
That looks promising. I’ll give it a try in the morning.
I can’t see the demand management sub menu in our setup, we may not be licensed for it, or it may have not been enabled yet as we are still mid upgrade.
But… check this out… circled in Green above is the actual reason you can’t modify the search in Customer Shipment Entry. So… that may be another work around if you DON’T want your users to have to go to an independent menu!
If you want to tackle it this way, you’ll need to customize Customer Shipment Entry.
Create a Custom Layer (if you don’t already have one). We need to modify the below event (but can’t… so you’ll need to copy it and override it).
In the event search, right click on it and choose “Copy”
In the new (copied) event… rename it if you want… then modify the trigger like below so it will override the existing event:
This whole thread evolution is brilliant. It’s written in a way that shows you the ask, and then logical progression of how you’d work through it… and it’s done in Kinetic so that all the folks still coming up to speed on customizing Kinetic can follow along and learn this progression in the Kinetic environment.
