Managing Inventory Transactions for Medical Handheld


After creating assets, you can then create inventory transactions to record movement of inventory from one inventory location to another. You can also keep track of inventory transactions created as part of a cycle count and view signatures captured for approval-required moves.

NOTE:  All inventory transactions created by the Medical Handheld are created for On-Hand Goods bucket. For more information on Managing Inventory and Inventory Transactions, Siebel Field Service Guide.
