Map Returned Stock to a Flat LPN in Anchanto WMS

Overview

When Parent–Child Mapping is disabled, returned SKUs map directly to a standalone Flat LPN and the Parent/Child fields are hidden. The LPN still needs a container, and the mapping can only be confirmed once capacity validation passes.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Go to the return LPN mapping → Scan the standalone LPN for the SKU → If the LPN has no container type, the Select Container Type For LPN popup opens.
2. Go to Scan / Select Container type → Choose the container, review its dimensions and capacity, and click Proceed → Capacity validation runs.
3. Go to the mapping → If WMS shows a capacity warning, correct the LPN, container or quantity → Validation is re-checked.
4. Go to the mapping → Confirm or update the mapping once validation passes → The SKU is mapped to the Flat LPN.

Important Notes & Limitations

• If an existing LPN already has a container type, WMS displays its capacity information.
• The Flat LPN flow removes Parent/Child details from the LPN statement where applicable.
