DIAGNOSIS
Where can the outbound chain break?
Start from the last trustworthy object. Preserve its reference, status, quantity, identity, and timestamp before changing a later record.
Did EWM receive the right demand?
Check sales and delivery readiness, warehouse relevance, organizational assignment, integration message, and Warehouse Request reference.
Why is WT or WO missing or wrong?
Check Warehouse Process Type, source-stock determination, release or wave, WT creation, WO creation rule, queue, resource, and blocks.
What was actually confirmed?
Check picking difference, product or HU identity, quantity, packing, staging, loading, exception, user, and timestamp.
Why did PGI, billing, or FI not follow?
Check delivery status, PGI posting or synchronization, integration queue, reversal, billing status, and accounting consequence.
Translate the outbound evidence chain into determination, work creation, exception, and integration proof.
