After clicking on the Ordered Qty, you should see the ASN Maintenance screen on the next page.
The ASN Maintenance screen will automatically pick up most of the information from the orders or schedules
line. Enter an ASN number. The Shipper ID is automatically copied from the ASN number. This is used to
match the ASN with the receipt in MFG/PRO.

NOTES – new “Buttons” on ASN creation screen:
DETAIL buttons - Suppliers should ONLY use the new DETAIL buttons "if you get an error message" because you are shipping a
A.
quantity not equal to the Standard Pack. You will only get the below error message when you go to SAVE after changing the Status to
SHIPPED.
Example error message: Line #1: The Quantity (x) must be exact multiple of Qty Per Pack (xxx). Please click the Detail button to
adjust the values accordingly.
- Solution = Click on the DETAIL button for that line and change the Qty/Pack to equal your shipped qty.
- >DO NOT enter information in any of the other DETAIL fields: i.e. Lot/Serial #, Kanban Qty, Cont Type, and Reference
fields. It causes problems in our business system.
- After pressing OK you will be returned to the ASN creation screen where you can complete your ASN.
VIEW-NEW-EDIT button - suppliers should NOT use the new VIEW-NEW-EDIT button next to "Reference Links".
CONTAINER button - suppliers should NOT use the new CONTAINER button to provide any additional information.

B. How to verify that your ASN was successfully created:
You can verify that you completed your ASN successfully by clicking on the ASN tab.
 You should see your ASN and under Status, you should see little truck icons.
 If you hover your mouse over the little truck, it will say “Shipped”.
 If it does not say “Shipped”, click on the ASN number to open it and change the
Status to Shipped and click SAVE. Then go back again and verify it says Shipped.
ASN Tab
Hover your mouse over the icon
You are now done creating your ASN.

C. How to Correct a Mistake – 2 situations:
1. Before you change the Status to Shipped, you can make all the changes, additions, or deletes to the
ASN that you want.
2. After you changed the Status to Shipped, you can NOT correct a mistake or make any changes to the
ASN.

The only thing that you can do at this point is to request that GHSP cancel the ASN (see the
following procedure).
Procedure to fix a mistake in an ASN after Status has been changed to Shipped;
a. Quickly notify the SV Helpdesk at: [email protected] so we can cancel the ASN. Until
the incorrect ASN is cancelled, it will distort our inventory.
b. Next, create a NEW correct ASN in SV using the same ASN number but ADD an X to the
suffix or end of the ASN number.
c. If the truck has not departed, please record the NEW ASN number (i.e. with the X suffix) on
the shipping papers that accompany the truck.
D. QUESTIONS:
If you have questions on doing ASN’s in SV or anything else in SV, please contact the
GHSP SV Helpdesk at: [email protected].
