Purpose: Use the Adjust LPN option to adjust the item unit quantity defined for an LPN; the quantity you enter represents the new quantity of the item for the LPN. For example, if the original LPN quantity is 10 and the quantity you enter on the Adjust LPN Screen is 12, the new LPN quantity is 12.
You can also use this option to delete an LPN by adjusting the quantity to zero if there is currently a record of the item in the location.
LPN creation history: When you adjust an LPN, the system does not create or update a record in the LPN Creation History table.
Updating Inventory for Adjusted LPN
When you adjust an LPN, the system gives you the option of updating inventory. The setting of the Upd flag on the Adjust LPN Screen determines whether the system updates inventory for the adjusted LPN.
• If you select the Upd field, the system performs an adjustment transaction to increase the on-hand quantity in the Item Warehouse and Item Location tables by the new quantity indicated.
• If you do not select the Upd field, it is as if you are allocating the quantity from the existing stock in the location you indicate.
Secured features:
• The Upd field does not appear on the Adjust LPN Screen if you do not have authority to the Allow Update of Inventory in RF (A47) secured feature.
• The Allow Access to RF Maintenance (A55) secured feature controls access to this option.
Important: The system does not validate that the item quantity in the location is greater than or equal to the quantity you define for the LPN if you select the Upd flag. This means that you can create a discrepancy between your on-hand quantity and your LPN record if there is no sufficient quantity of the item in the location.
