Inventory Process |
Select the inventory process by which you want to issue or adjust inventory for a RTV line. Inventory process values include: Express: Select to perform RTV Streamline processing for this RTV line. When you use express processing, the system initiates the PeopleSoft Inventory issue (automatic issue) or adjustment (automatic adjustment) when you create data-collection transactions. If the RTV line disposition is Ship, the system creates a material stock request with a status of Shipped to update inventory. If the line disposition is Destroy, the system creates an adjustment transaction for adjusting inventory. Note: You cannot select Express if the Inventory business unit is defined as a Warehouse Management System (WMS) type. Fulfillment: Select to perform RTV fulfillment processing for this RTV line. This enables you to stage RTV fulfillment processing requests for the PeopleSoft Inventory functionality to process and deplete return quantities. When you use fulfillment processing, the system creates and saves a material stock request transaction in Inventory when you dispatch the RTV. The Fulfillment value is only valid if the Disposition status is Ship. The Fulfillment option is not available for the Destroy disposition. Note: If the inventory process value is Fulfillment and you change the disposition status to Destroy, the system displays an error message that the Disposition field value is Ship for use with the Fulfillment option. When you save a RTV line with an Inventory status of Pending, the Inventory process value is Fulfillment, and the disposition value for the line is Ship, the system:
Manual: Indicates that you either use the Inventory Express Issue component to issue inventory returns that are being shipped to the supplier or the Inventory Adjustment component to adjust balances for inventory returns that are to be destroyed. The system does not automatically update inventory values. Note: The system displays an error message when you attempt to change the inventory processing option to Manual and there is inventory demand for the RTV line. Re-Send: Select to send this transaction to PeopleSoft Inventory again. This value is only available when the Inventory status value is Processing. When you resend the transaction, the system sets the Inventory status to Pending and sets the Inventory Process field value back to either the Express or Fulfillment value that it contained before it was changed to the Re-Send status. When you select Re-Send, the system verifies that the RTV business unit, RTV ID, and RTV line do not have uncanceled demand. If they do, the system displays an error message that there is unprocessed demand in Inventory for the RTV line and the value cannot be changed. Note: When an inventory transaction is resent, the quantity sent is the difference between the return quantity and the ship quantity, because partial processing could have occurred on the original transaction. If the INV Status field value is Processing and you change the inventory process to Express or Fulfillment, the system verifies that the RTV business unit, RTV ID, and RTV line do not have uncanceled demand. If they do, the system displays an error message that there is unprocessed demand in Inventory for the RTV line and the value cannot be changed. If there is no demand, the system changes the Inventory Process field value and sets the INV Status field value to Pending. |
INV Status (inventory status) |
Displays the inventory status for the RTV line. The field is a display-only field and is only visible when the RTV line is inventory-related. Field values include: N/A: (not available) The system assigns this as a default value when none of the RTV lines are inventory-related. Pending Indicates that update requests have not been sent to Inventory for processing. This is the field default value when the RTV line is inventory-related. If the Inventory Process field value is Express or Fulfillment, the update requests have not yet been send to Inventory for processing. Processing Indicates that inventory updates are being processed for either the Express or Fulfill Inventory process value. The system sets this status value when the RTV line is inventory-related and the RTV ship quantity is less than the return quantity, which means that there are inventory updates that have not been completed. Complete Indicates that inventory updates are complete and the RTV shipment quantity is equal to the return quantity. The system sets the status to Complete when the RTV line status is set to Shipped. |
Streamline |
Select this check box to capture detailed information, such as the serial ID and lot ID, using the assembly item details for the last operation sequence performed for the production ID. The Streamlinecheck box enables you to use streamline updates against subcontracted returned items creating data collection transactions to update production. This check box appears on the RTV line when the Production ID field has a value. The subcontract streamline option defaults onto the RTV line from the user preferences and you can override the value. The system automatically deselects and makes the Streamline check box unavailable if the SetID for the RTV business unit does not exists in the data collection setup. Streamline processing for subcontract RTVs enables you to process RTVs if completions have been performed on the associated receipt and the subcontract production header has an In Process status. The system includes negative production completion and production scrap for operations being returned against the subcontract when you select the Streamline check box. When you save data-collection transactions the system calculates the net quantity change. This is the difference in quantity from when you save the transaction and the value from the previous save. Data collection transactions are created for updating the subcontract production tables when the batch update is performed. |
Return Reason |
Select a return reason code for a line's return. This field displays when the RTV line is subcontract-related and has values for the production ID and operation sequence and you have selected the Streamline check box. |

Once you enter the returned quantity in the standard UOM, the system will calculate and enter the supplier returned quantity value for you. The system performs the UOM conversion for you. Using this field enables you to return a quantity to the supplier in a different unit of measure than was on the purchase order. For example, you place a purchase order for two cases of item 10004. In this case the supplier UOM or purchase order UOM is Cases and the standard UOM is Each. Let's say you receive that purchase order for the complete two cases and have started to use that item. Now you receive a recall from the supplier, but you only have a partial quantity left of the quantity originally ordered. You can then create an RTV and use this field (entering the quantity in the standard UOM) to return a partial quantity (10 each) of the case back to the supplier that was originally purchased. Note: This field is only available if the standard UOM is different than the supplier UOM. |
Req Date (request date) |
Select the date on which you are requesting the RTV transaction. This identifies the date on which you are requesting to have the merchandise shipped or destroyed. |
Supplier Shipped Qty (supplier shipped quantity) |
Enter the quantity in the supplier UOM shipped back to the supplier. The value in this field appears by default in the Ship Qty field on the Return to Vendor page. If the selected receipt is not a PeopleSoft Inventory receipt, the Supplier Shipped Qty and Ship Date fields are available for entry. Update these fields when the items are physically shipped back to the supplier. When the quantity in Supplier Shipped Qty equals the quantity in Return Qty Vndr and you save the page, the status of the distribution line on the supplier return changes to Shipped. If the selected receipt is a PeopleSoft Inventory receipt, the Supplier Shipped Qty and Ship Date fields are not available for entry. This information is updated when the inventory is shipped out of the PeopleSoft Inventory business unit through the Express Issue page or scrapped on the Inventory Adjustment page. |
