This is an item defining attribute. If you turn this option on, the item is automatically assigned to the default category set for the Inventory functional area. See: Item Defining Attributes.
This attribute is optionally set by the Item Status code. See: Status Attributes and Item Status Control.
Note: Oracle Order Entry uses this along with Stockable and Returnable to determine which authorized returned items can be physically received into inventory. (See also the OE Transactable attribute.)
Attention: You cannot change revision control when an item has quantity on hand. If Revision Control is controlled at the Master Item level, the check for on-hand quantity is against the sum of on-hand quantities in all child organizations.
Note: For Oracle Order Entry, if profile option OE: Reservations is Yes, you can specify a revision at order entry or scheduling, or let Pick Release use Inventory picking rules to determine the revision when the order is picked. If the profile option is No, you must enter a revision at ship confirmation.
Note: Reservation control for a subinventory overrides reservation control for an item. In other words, if an item is reservable but a subinventory is not, the item quantity in that subinventory is not reservable.
Note: Oracle Order Entry recognizes this attribute only if profile option OE: Reservations is Yes. Then, Order Entry allows reservation of the item during order entry or scheduling and automatically creates any necessary reservations when the item is released for picking.
Attention: You cannot turn reservation control off if reservations exist.
No control | Do not establish lot control for the item. |
Full control | Track inventory balances by lot number. You must specify a lot number for issues and receipts. |
Note: For Oracle Order Entry, if profile option OE: Reservations is Yes, you can specify a lot at order entry or scheduling, or let Pick Release use Inventory picking rules to determine the lot when the order is picked. If the profile option is No, you must enter a lot at ship confirmation.
You can establish lot number control only for an item that has no quantity on hand. If Lot Control is controlled at the Master Item level, the check for on-hand quantity is against the sum of on-hand quantities in all child organizations.
Attention: Oracle Work in Process recognizes either lot control or serial number control for an item--but not both. You cannot transact an item into Work in Process if it has both lot and serial control defined.
Shelf life days | Specify a number of days for all lots of an item, beginning on the day you create the lot by receiving the item. You receive a warning message that the lot expires after the specified number of days. |
No control | Shelf life control not established for this item |
User-defined | Specify an expiration date as you receive each lot. You receive a warning but are not prevented from using the lot after expiration. |
Attention: You cannot change lot expiration control when an item has quantity on hand. If Lot Expiration is controlled at the Item level, the check for on-hand quantity is against the sum of on-hand quantities in all child organizations.
For example, suppose quantity on hand is 100 and negative tolerance is 10%. Inventory does not create an adjustment for physical counts between 90 and 100 units. This means the quantity on hand remains 100 units. For physical counts under 90 units, Inventory creates an adjustment, changing the quantity on hand to the physical count.
For example, suppose quantity on hand is 100 and positive tolerance is 10%. Inventory does not create an adjustment transaction for physical counts between 100 and 110 units. This means the quantity on hand remains 100 units. For physical counts over 110 units, Inventory creates an adjustment, changing the quantity on hand to the physical count.
At inventory receipt | Create and assign serial numbers when you receive the item. Thereafter, for any material transaction, you must provide a serial number for each unit. |
At sales order issue | Create and assign serial numbers when you issue (ship) the item against a customer sales order. (Internal requisition orders do not require a serial number when you ship the item.) If you receive an item on an RMA (return material authorization), you must specify the same serial numbers you created at sales order issue. All other material transactions for this item bypass serial number information. |
No control | Serial number control not established for this item. All material transactions involving this item bypass serial number information. |
Predefined | Assign predefined serial numbers when you receive the item. Thereafter, for any material transaction, you must provide a serial number for each unit. |
Change back and forth between | When | |
---|---|---|
Dynamic entry at inventory receipt | Predefined serial numbers | Any time |
Dynamic entry at sales order issue | No serial number control | Any time |
Dynamic entry at inventory receipt | No serial number control | Item has no on-hand quantity |
Dynamic entry at sales order issue | Predefined serial numbers | Item has no on-hand quantity |
Predefined serial numbers | No serial number control | Item has no on-hand quantity |
Dynamic entry at inventory receipt | Dynamic entry at sales order issue | Item has no on-hand quantity |
Table 1 - 9. (Page 1 of 1) |
Dynamic entry | Define locators when you use them, either as you receive or ship items. |
No control | Locator control not established. |
Prespecified | Define locators before you use them. |
Note: In Oracle Order Entry, if profile option OE: Reservations is Yes, Order Entry uses Inventory picking rules to assign the locator to an item being shipped.
Note: Locator control for an organization or for a subinventory overrides locator control for an item.
Attention: You cannot change locator control when an item has quantity on hand.
