Crop Receipts Using Weigh Tags

The weigh tag process usually begins when a vehicle crosses a weigh bridge and the operator locates the harvest record in the system. The harvest is weighed, and you create the weigh tag with information from the delivery tag and the weigh-in process.

You create a weigh tag operation from the configured operation that you set up using the weigh tag (WT) base operation. This is also a quality operation, which means that you can enter quality tests and results on the weigh tag operation. The receipt is not complete until the weigh tag is closed. The system does not create a purchase order or receipt and no on-hand inventory is available in either the ERP or JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Blend Management systems until you close the weigh tag.

The system can also calculate the receipt quantity based on the net receipt weight or the secondary quantity that you enter during the weigh tag operation through the Weigh Tag Receipt program (P40G30). The system uses the following methodology to calculate the receipt quantity:

• If the net receipt weight is available and you do not enter the secondary quantity for the weigh tag, the system calculates the receipt quantity based on the net receipt weight.

• If the net receipt weight is available and you enter the secondary quantity for the weigh tag, the system calculates the receipt quantity based on the net receipt weight.

• If the net receipt weight is not available, and if you enter the secondary quantity and secondary UOM for the weigh tag, then the system calculates the receipt quantity based on the secondary quantity. In this scenario, when you click Save and Close in the Edit Weigh Tag Master form, the system displays an informational message, indicating that the receipt quantity has been adjusted based on the secondary quantity. The system also displays the adjusted receipt quantity in the Receipt Quantity field. After you click Save and Close again, the adjusted receipt quantity is displayed in the Weigh Tag grid. In the Weigh Tag grid, you cannot modify the adjusted receipt quantity value though the Receipt Quantity field is editable. If you attempt to modify the receipt quantity, the system displays an informational message, indicating that the receipt quantity has been adjusted based on the secondary quantity, and the system displays the previous value.

  You can modify the receipt quantity in the Weigh Tag Workbench program (P31B94) only if the Secondary Quantity field and the Net Receipt Weight field are blank in the Edit Weigh Tag Master form.

For calculating the receipt quantity, the system uses the item unit of measure (UOM) conversions data in the Item Unit of Measure table (F41002) if the item UOM conversions exist. If the item UOM conversions do not exist, the system uses the standard UOM conversions data in the Unit of Measure Standard Conversions table (F41003). If the item UOM conversions or the standard UOM conversions do not exist, the system displays an error message, indicating that the UOM conversion was unsuccessful.

You can update receipts and inventory immediately by setting the Partial Receipts Control Flag option for a configured operation. When you save a partial receipt type weigh tag operation at any status greater than Draft, the system:

• Disables Block Code, Harvest Period, and Harvest suffix after updating receipts and inventory.

• Enables quantity for change.

• Records a receipt record to the Purchase Order Receiver table (F43121). The new receipt record is for the difference in quantity when the quantity on an existing weight tag changes.

• Increments item availability quantity in the Item Location (F41021) table. The system updates the on hand quantity for the difference in quantity on an existing weigh tag.

  Note: Make sure the No Blend option is activated in the Weigh Tag Details program (P31B77).

• Updates the Item Ledger table (F4111) for each changed quantity.

• Adds a receipt type record to the Pay on Proceeds Log table (F40G95) if the harvest item exists in the Pay on Proceeds item Cross Reference table (F40G90).

You use the purchase order that the system creates with the first weigh tag closure from the harvest for all subsequent weigh tags for that harvest.
