Description:
During the creation of a denial transaction (DLMS 945A/A6_), by the Warehouse Module (WM), no reason code or explanation is given to why the denial was produced. This does not provide the Inventory Manager, working in the Material Management (MM) module enough information as to conduct follow-on action such as back-ordering, filling the requisition from an alternate RSA withing the ICP arena, or canceling the requisition. It also does not appear that there is a means to search for a denial transactions associated to a specific document number.
