Chapter 28: Work with Inventory Transaction Reason Codes (WIT1)

Purpose: Use Work with Inventory Transaction Reason Codes to create, display, change, delete, or print the reason codes that are used immediate and batch inventory transactions.

Transaction reason codes explain why a transaction was performed. These codes display in Display Inventory Transaction History and Display Inventory Transaction Summary.

Transaction reason codes are only required on some transactions. For example, a Receiving transaction would not require a code, but a Return-to-Vendor transaction may require a code. When you create inventory transaction codes you determine whether or not a specific transaction code requires a reason code.
