4. Go back to the WO and delete the warehouse shipment

  • Click on Related -> Warehouse -> Warehouse Shipment Lines **If you see the message "(There is nothing to show in this view)", then skip to Step 5.


  • After clicking on Warehouse Shipment Lines, a new window will appear.  Click on Show Document.

  • Save a screenshot of the lines and order total. The new order total must match what it currently is.  If you are replacing with an item that will change the order total, Finance needs to be notified with either a refund request or to collect payment if the new order value is higher.
  • Replace the out of stock sku with the replacement
  • Add in the decoration type, price, discounts (if applicable) and tax code 

9. Add a note and a comment explaining why the change was made

  • The note/comment should state what the original item was, what the new item is, and why the item was changed.
  • The full note in the below screenshot is: "5000-TROBLU-S change to 5000-TURGRE-2XL due to stock issue"
