Forty-five minutes, and it ends with the round trip. Shipping parameters for both plants — both, because it is the commonest omission. A staging subinventory in each. Picking rules configured, including first-expired-first-out for the lot-controlled item. A full pick-to-ship cycle for a customer shipment. One short pick, with the backorder behaviour evidenced. A complete Skien-to-Bergen inter-organization shipment, received at Bergen. A packing slip generated. And evidence: on-hand before and after ship confirm at both ends — plus in-transit stock, if you configured it. Four acceptance criteria, two worth reading twice. On-hand reduction occurs at ship confirm, not at pick confirm — the pivotal event checked directly, and if your evidence shows the drop at pick confirm, you have misunderstood the flow rather than misconfigured it.
