It is not the safest way to use the job above to try to extract license information, since it does not provide layer access codes for example in order to be able to develop anywhere else than USR layer. It is better to wait for the 2 txt files that your partner is going to send.

RE: FIFO Replenishment setup
For Batch items (and assuming you have 'Batch below' in the Reservation hierarchy) there is a Location Directive Action Strategy called 'FEFO Batch Reservation', which will create pick work on the location with the earliest expiring batch. Unfortunately, I think you can't use this on Replenishments (it can only be used on Sale order picks).
However, there is another way to get that. Decide if you want to use earliest Expiry date or earliest Best before date. Then, on the 'Batch enabled' Location Directive Action, set the sorting on the query like this:
This will direct you to use the Location with the Batch with the earliest Expiry date.
For non-Batch items, you might find it hard to use Sorting on the Location Directive Action. In the R3 CU11 environment I have to hand, I can only Sort on fields on the 'Locations' and 'Inventory dimensions' tables. It won't let me use any other table. In the past (on CU8), I was able to sort on fields in the 'On-hand' table, for example. If your Licence plate IDs are generated from a number sequence on receipt, I guess you could sort on Licence plate on the Inventory dimensions table (lowest LP Id would be the oldest?).
If you want to extend the Sorting for non-Batch items further, take a look at this:

FIFO Replenishment setup
We are trying to figure out how our Replenishment is determined during wave demand processing. We have 2 scenarios that are happening that are concerning.
1st - replenishment items are being chosen by location, instead of age of receipt or oldest License Plate first. In our Work Templates > Replenishment > Edit Query > Sorting...it is set with Temporary Work Transactions of Item number & Location set to Search Direction Ascending. I have tried to get this to look at LP in our Test environment, but kept getting errors when trying to process waves.
2nd - replenishment items are being chosen by Full Case over a Partial Case, which has been in the building longer. We have case quantities setup for most of our items, but our vendors sometimes send us partial cases of different Batch/Lot numbers. These partial cases are being overlooked when a Replenishment is being created. I have not looked into this as much since I kind of thought fixing the first scenario was more important and would potentially fix this as well.
Any setting thoughts?

I did most of that. My question is will this error show if I am trying to install a hotfix that has an older version. CU12 is 6.3.5000.138. The hotfix in question is for version 6.3.3000.1918. Let me know if this matters or not. I saw this blog and was wondering.

RE: Want to convert existing Items to WMS items.
Hi Zain,
I tested this in a CU11 environment. I created a new item with the Storage dimension group from your screen shot (FIFO costed, no tracking dimensions).
I purchased the item, and sold some of them. I have no open orders, and some of the item remains in inventory. If I try to change the Storage dimension group, I get:
'The new dimension group cannot be assigned. The physical inventory has not reached zero on-hand, while 'Activate closing of non-financial transfers' is set to Yes.'
I remove the Inventory using an adjustment journal and try again. I get:
'The new dimension group cannot be assigned. Physical inventory transactions might exist and/or financial inventory transactions are not fully settled, while 'Activate closing of non-financial transfers' is set to Yes.'
I run Inventory Close and try again. I am now able to change the Storage Dimension Group to one which has Warehouse management enabled.
I then try to set a Reservation hierarchy. If I do it from the Released product form, I get:
'You cannot assign a reservation hierarchy to the item because there are inventory transactions. You can assign a reservation hierarchy to the item when no inventory transactions exist.'
But if I do it via the periodic 'Change item hierarchy' job, it works fine. I then set a Unit Sequence Group, and my item is now ready to be used in Warehouse management scenarios.

Want to convert existing Items to WMS items.
Dear Experts,
I want to change my existing items to WMS items. As we know WMS items have their own setup which mainly includes Reservation hierarchy and Advanced warehouse management inventory dimension.
Can anyone suggest how it is possible to convert an existing item to advanced warehouse management item?

RE: Picking list report sent to default printer always
I am getting this right now... did you ever manage to fix it?

Picking list report sent to default printer always
Hi,
I have selected a printer while printing picking list report from Production order->Start screen.
But the report is always sent to default printer (Microsoft XPS document writer).
I have debugged the code and found that the problem is in below code of run method of SrsReportRunController class.
printerInfo = printerHelper.GetPrinterInfo(srsPrintDestSettings.printerName());
// Check if the device is available
if (printerInfo == null)
{
// Use the default printer
printerSettings = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings();
srsPrintDestSettings.printerName(printerSettings.get_PrinterName());
}
Here , printerInfo is initialized to null so it is assigning default printer.
But when I use the same printer to print picking list from Production control->Reports->Production papers->Picking list, this printerInfo object is initialized and the report is sent to printer.
printerSettings.get_PrinterName() is returning the same printer name in both scenarios.
Have anyone faced this issue and how it can be solved?

RE: BOM Consumption / Picking List
Hi Hans,
I think you're nearly there. On the 'Setup' tab of the BOM line, set the 'Rounding-up' to 'Quantity' and the 'Multiples' to '1.00'.

BOM Consumption / Picking List
Hi,
I need AX to calculate how many boxes are needed for a specific item to be stored into. Example: All boxes have a 2 piece capacity, so when we have a (1) item order AX needs to calculate 1 box is needed, when we have a 2 item order AX still needs to know only 1 box is needed (because the box has a 2 piece capacity). When you have (3) pieces, 2 boxes will be needed and so on.
Thanks in Advance!

RE: Production pick lists - how to make AX decide what location to use for picking
What you can do in this case is use reservations instead of default locations. If you leave the default location blank, and enable automatic reservations on start, you should see the location match where the inventory is.

Production pick lists - how to make AX decide what location to use for picking
Hi,
I'm familiair with ERP but new with AX, and I'm a bit confused with production pick list logic. We’re using WM II. Could you guys give me a hint where to look?
Currently the system works with default locations which are copied to the production order's BOM and are then used on the pick list. It can occur that a certain item has the default location A and that it's not available there. However it does have inventory for that item present on location B.
I'd like to get the system show location B on the pick list in such occassions. Is this possible?
Thanks!

RE: Closing Inventory Period
Hi Ahmad,
You run it if you use one of these inventory models on any of the items in a legal entity: FIFO, LIFO, LIFO date, Weighted average, Weighted average date.
If you only use Standard Cost or Moving average, you do not need to run it, but you could (because it still closes a period for inventory transactions, regardless of the inventory model).
