9 Working with Bulk Product Receipts

This chapter contains the following topics:

• Section 9.1, "Understanding Bulk Product Receipts"

• Section 9.2, "Recording Bulk Product Receipts"

• Section 9.3, "Calculating Gain or Loss for Received Products"

9.1 Understanding Bulk Product Receipts

You record the receipt of bulk products requested on a purchase order as they arrive at the depot. You can confirm the receipt of the products requested on the purchase order, record the volumes received, and make adjustments to correct variances.

You can also calculate any gains or losses that might have occurred during transportation, such as losses due to spillage, theft, and faulty meters. To do so, you perform a four-point analysis. Four-point refers to the opening and closing readings at a supplying location, and the opening and closing readings at a receiving location. Analysis refers to the variance between the two results (that is, the gain or loss). You perform a four-point analysis primarily to determine the quantity of stock lost in transit during a lengthy voyage, but you can record the data for any movement.

If you take ownership of the product when it is loaded onto a vehicle at a supplier's depot, you can track the quantity loaded onto the vehicle and record it as a liability. Then you can calculate and record any gain or loss that might have occurred at the time of delivery at the depot.

9.2 Recording Bulk Product Receipts

This section provides an overview of the recording of bulk product receipts, lists a prerequisite, and discusses how to:

• Set processing options for Purchase Order Receipts (P4312).

• Record bulk product receipts.

9.2.1 Understanding the Recording of Bulk Product Receipts

You record the receipt of bulk products requested on a purchase order as they arrive at the depot. You can confirm the receipt of the products or make adjustments to correct variances. The system updates the Item Ledger File table (F4111), the Purchase Order Receiver File table (F43121), and the Bulk Product Transaction File table (F41511).

When you record bulk product receipts, you can display all purchase order lines that have an open quantity or amount to be received, and record the receipt of a bulk product. An open quantity is the purchase order quantity minus the previous quantities received.

When you receive a bulk item, the Bulk Product Receipts form enables you to record temperature and density information and to calculate standard volume and weight. A bulk item is defined by the Bulk/Packed field on the Item Master form.

You can set a processing option to record differences in receiving as a temperature gain or loss, to recalculate the unit cost, or to receive as standard quantities for the items that were purchased in standard quantities.

You might want to receive the entire amount ordered and not perform a temperature or density conversion from ambient to standard. If you record a gain or loss, the amount is calculated as follows:

[(Standard Quantity − Ambient Quantity) ÃUnit Cost] − Temperature Gain or Loss

This amount is debited to the temperature gain or loss Automatic Accounting Instruction (AAI) account, with the offset as a credit to Inventory AAI. Quantities are stored as a temperature gain or loss.

If you choose to recalculate the unit cost for bulk products that require a temperature conversion, the unit cost is recalculated as follows:

Unit Cost = (Extended Cost)/(Standard Quantity)

The unit cost is recalculated in receiving, and no variance exists in voucher match. The difference is recorded to the Item Ledger File table (F4111) and the Bulk Product Transaction File table (F41511).

If you choose to receive as standard quantities, the items are purchased in standard quantities and the product is received as if it were a packaged product. No gain or loss occurs, and no adjustment to unit cost is made.

Additionally, you can access the Dip Volume Calculator form or the Weighbridge Information form from the Purchase Order Receipts form via the Row menu if you need to calculate the volumes to enter. You can also access the Four-Point Analysis Maintenance form from the Purchase Order Receipts form via the Row menu if you need to calculate gains or losses.

9.2.2 Prerequisite

Verify that purchase orders are entered into the system.

See Also: "Creating Receipt Routes" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Procurement Management Implementation Guide. Calculating Volume from Dip Readings. Calculating Volume from Weighbridge Information. Calculating Gain or Loss for Received Products.

9.2.3 Form Used to Record Bulk Product Receipts

Form Name	FormID	Navigation	Usage
Purchase Order Receipts	W4312F	Purchase Order Processing (G43A11), Enter Receipts by PO. On the Work With Purchase Orders to Receive form, locate open purchase order detail lines that correspond to a receipt. (Only those detail lines appear that have a next status code that is equal to the processing options specifications.) Select a detail line. (If you enter receipts by order number, all detail lines appear that are on the same order as the detail line that you selected. If you enter receipts by item, all detail lines appear that contain the item that is on the detail line that you selected.)	Record bulk product receipts.

9.2.4 Setting Processing Options for Purchase Order Receipts (P4312)

Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.

9.2.4.1 Defaults

These processing options define the default information that the PO Receipts program (P4312) uses.

1. Inquiry Order Type and 2. Receipt Document Type

Specify the type of document. This user-defined code from 00/DT also indicates the origin of the transaction. The system has reserved document type codes for vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets that create automatic offset entries during the post program. (These entries are not self-balancing when you initially enter them.) These prefixes for document types are defined by the system, and it is recommended that you not change them:

P: Accounts Payable

R: Accounts Receivable

T: Payroll

I: Inventory

O: Purchase Order

J: General Accounting/Joint Interest Billing

S: Sales Order Processing

You must enter a value that has been set up in UDC 00/DT.

9.2.4.2 Status Default

These processing options control which status codes the system uses for receipts.

1. Acceptable Incoming Status Code 1 through 3. Acceptable Incoming Status Code 3

Specify a next status. Orders are eligible for receipt when they have the next status that you specify for this processing option.

Before you complete this processing option, review the order activity rules that you have set up.

4. Outgoing Status for Partial Receipts

Specify the next status that the order moves to after a partial receipt.

Before you complete this processing option, review the order activity rules that you have set up.

5. Outgoing Status for Closing and 6. Outgoing Status for Canceling

Specify the next status that the order moves to after the system closes or fully receives, or cancels the detail line.

It is recommended that you use status code 999 for closed or fully received detail lines.

9.2.4.3 Display

These processing options control whether these types of information appear in the PO Receipts program (P4312) and whether they can be changed:

1. Sales Order Backorders

9.3 Calculating Gain or Loss for Received Products

This section provides an overview of gain and loss calculations for received products and discusses how to calculate gain or loss for received products.

9.3.1 Understanding Gain and Loss Calculations for Received Products

Use four-point analysis when you record received products to calculate any gains or losses that might have occurred during shipment. Four-point refers to the opening and closing readings at a supplying location, and the opening and closing readings at a receiving location. Analysis refers to the variance between the two results (that is, the gain or loss).

You can choose to perform a four-point analysis for each line item on a purchase order. You can also perform a four-point analysis on partial receipts. The program creates a four-point record for each receipt.

The data from a four-point analysis is informational only. It does not update the gain/loss table or the general ledger, and you cannot retrieve this data for other programs. If you need the output elsewhere, for example, to enter a gain or loss manually, print the form and enter the data in the required program.

If you receive an item that is set up for receipt routing, you can set a processing option in receipts entry to call the Four-Point Analysis program when product is routed to the payment eligible and on-hand steps.

This diagram illustrates a four-point analysis:

Figure 9-2 Four-point analysis

Description of "Figure 9-2 Four-point analysis"

During four-point analysis, the system:

• Adds the opening on-board quantity to the quantity loaded (Point 1) and compares the total to the start trip quantity (Point 2).

  Any difference represents the loading (inturn) gain or loss. The system calculates a percentage based on the sum of opening on-board plus loaded quantities.

• Compares the start trip quantity (Point 2) to the end trip quantity (Point 3).

  Any difference represents the transport (trip) gain or loss. The system calculates a percentage based on the opening on-board quantity.

• Compares the end trip quantity (Point 3) with the sum of the discharged (Point 4) and left-on-board quantities.

  Any difference represents the unloading (outturn) gain or loss. The system calculates a percentage based on the end trip quantity.

• Calculates the total gain or loss, both in volume and percent.

9.3.1.1 Recording Standard Quantities

You can enter standard quantities if you already have them. If you enter standard quantities, you do not need to access the Four-Point Temperature/Density form to convert ambient quantities to standard quantities.

9.3.1.2 Volume Calculations for Four-Point Analysis

You can use Dip Volume Calculator to enter the opening and closing dip readings of any supplying or receiving point, and calculate volumes. You can then print the dip calculations, return to the Four-Point Analysis form, and enter the quantities in the appropriate fields.

9.3.1.3 Receipt Reversal

If you reverse a receipt entry for a bulk product, the system calls the Four-Point Analysis program and reverses the four-point analysis record.
