Define parameters for the PO Receipt Item Usage Labels flat file that you want to produce.

Use the PO Receipt Item Usage Labels page to generate the Receipt Item Usage Label SQR Report (PORC920). This report provides for barcode scanning in the warehouse, on the manufacturing floor, or later in the supply chain. You can print barcode labels from PeopleSoft through an in-house or third-party bar code label product.

Note: PeopleSoft SCM applications do not support the printing of bar codes from processes running on OS390 servers. You should run your SQRs that print barcodes on a process scheduler server that is running on a non-OS390 operation system.

To generate barcode labels:

  1. Set up the attributes for each label type on the Data Collection Label Setup page.

  2. Generate a flat file containing the label data by running a PeopleSoft Process Scheduler SQR program from the label-specific run control page.

  3. Pass the flat file to an in-house or a third-party barcode label product to print the labels.

In PeopleSoft Purchasing, you can use the PO Receipt Item Usage labels page to create:

  • A flat file to produce receipt labels that are used to track received items.

    Receiving labels can be generated for each item on a receipt.

  • A flat file to produce item usage labels for items that are to be delivered to point-of-use locations directly upon receiving.
