Creating Lot Commitments in the F44H711 Workfile from Extra Purchase Orders

Access the After Start Purchasing Maintenance form.

After completing this form, return to the Work with After Start Purchasing form, select a record, and select Create Workfile from the Row menu to create lot commitments.

The steps for creating lot commitments from extra purchase orders are the same as those for creating commitments manually.

Doc Number

Leave this field blank so that the system assigns the next number.

Lot

Enter the lot business unit, which represents both the community and lot number in the Lot Master table (F44H201). The first four characters of the lot business unit represent the community. The system enters this community value in the Community field automatically. The last four characters of the lot business unit represent the lot number.

Quantity Ordered

Enter the quantity of units affected by this extra purchase order.

Purch Report Code 1 (purchasing report code 1) through Purch Report Code 5 (purchasing report code 5)

Enter reporting codes from UDC 41/P1–UDC 41/P5 that differentiate segments of inventory in a meaningful way for buying department personnel.

Depending on the nature of the inventory, this code might be used to establish attributes, such as color, country of origin, or primary content (for example, brass or wood).

Reporting code 1 is predefined as a purchasing code for commodity class.

Tax Rate Area

Enter a value from the Tax Areas table (F4008) that identifies a tax or geographic area that has common tax rates and tax authorities. The system uses the tax rate area in conjunction with the tax explanation code and tax rules to calculate tax and general ledger distribution amounts.

If the alternate tax rate/area assignment company constant is enabled for the company, the system assigns the alternate tax rate/area based on the lot and supplier country information. Otherwise, the system uses the default tax rate/area you set up for the supplier.

For further information about alternate tax rate/area assignments, please refer to the "Setting Up Alternate Tax Rate/Area Assignment Functionality" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Tax Processing Implementation Guide.
