Select one location from the list.  If a part is reserved in SO, and also reserved to a project that's linked to the SO, the system should pick the parts that are reserved by the SO first, if not enough to ship, then take the parts that are reserved by the project.

Extended

If the Pricing Screen has been filled in, this will be the amount that the user will charge the customer for this line item.It is the sales quantity multiplied by the price for 1 unit.

Project Number Select a Project number from the pulldown if this record is to be associated to a project.  To remove the Project number, right click on the field.   If parts are allocated to a project and the project is selected in SO for the SO item, when the part is shipped, those allocated to that project parts will be available to be shipped.  After the project is selected in SO, the new created WO will link to that project.
Line Status

This is the status for the line item highlighted on Sales Order: (Standard; Priority-1; Priority-2; Admin Hold; Mfgr Hold; or Cancel) 

The system defaults the line item to Standard.  Standard is the ordinary Sales order line item status.  Priority is set up as a make ahead of all other orders, Priority-1;  being the most important and Priority-2;  the second most important.   Admin Hold is an order on hold due to customer credit, etc (this will NOT interfere with the kitting or production but WILL prevent shipping).  Mfg Hold will NOT interfere with the kitting or production but WILL prevent shipping.  

The user may put orders on Admin or Manufacturing Hold without affecting MRP  If user wants to prevent MRP from giving Release WO demands for line items with Admin or Mfgr Hold status they will need to check the MRP on hold checkbox.  

MRP On Hold

This option gives the users the ability to turn OFF the function of the Sales Order line item driving the demands for the MRP and just use Work Order for buying components.  If this box is checked on the SO, MRP will instruct you to cancel all open PO(s) for the components needed for this SO and to cancel any WO demands linked to this SO. 

There is an option in System Setup/Sales Order Defaults that will automatically check the box when adding a SO Line item.  When using the system in this mode if you create a WO Manually, the MRP will tell you to cancel the WO since there is no SO demand.  This can be solved one of two ways:

Use the MPS module(Forecast)  or Open/create Firm planned WO's so the MRP will not keep instructing you to cancel the order.

This is a perfect solution for customers who wants to build products based on forecast or promised to maintain certain amount of FGI in inventory.  They can use the MPS module to accomplish this and use the SO to ship products from FGI inventory.

SI  (Source Inspection)  This field has been added for future use.  It is not linked to any other modules at this time.   
FA  (First Article) This field has been added for future use.  It is not linked to any other modules at this time.
Fcst Item The Forecast checkbox is defaulted as True whether or not there actually is a forecast.  By doing this, we minimize the possibility of the MRP double ordering parts for the SO. If there is a forecast, then the SO will be subtracted from it.   If there is NOT a forecast, the SO will drive MRP as usual. Users can change to un-checked in the Sales order/Work order if desired.
