Register Issue of Single Parts

Explanation

Usually, the system automatically registers the issues from inventory for customer orders or shop orders. If you need to enter issues manually, it can be done in this window. Depending on how you defined the system parameters, you can issue the part even if its count is zero, i.e., negative counts are allowed. If the part is serial tracked in inventory, you can issue a specific part by searching for the serial number. If the part is serial tracked at receipt and issue but not serial tracked in inventory, a dialog box appears where you can search for the serial number to be issued.

Note that you cannot enter direct issues for the parts in project inventory; it is only possible for the parts in standard inventory.

Prerequisites

• The part cannot be locked for counting.
• A standard cost must have been specified for the part (unless there is an overriding cost in the inventory part register).
• The part cannot be a blow-through or a phantom part (planning method T, O, or K).
• The current location cannot be an inspection location, shipment location, or arrival location for single-handled parts.
• The inventory location type must be picking, floor stock, or production line.
• The ownership type of the parts must be Company Owned or Consignment.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, the inventory part will be issued and the amount in the Quantity Available field will be decreased.
