Process

1. Cost Entry

Specify whether to display the To Unit Cost and To Extended Amount fields on the Inventory Transfers form. Values are:

Blank: Display the fields.

1: Display the fields with default values from F4105, but do not enable them to be updated.

2: Do not display the fields.

2. Journal Entries

Specify whether to use detailed or summarized journal entries in the general ledger from the Inventory Transfers (P4113) program. For summarized journal entries, the system creates a summarized debit total and credit total per account number for all lines in a transfer. For detailed journal entries, the system creates one journal entry (debit and credit) for each detail line in a transfer.

The batch type that the Inventory Transfers program creates is N. This processing option affects journal entries for the F0911 table only. The AAIs that are most commonly used are 4122 (Inventory) and 4124 (Expense or COGS). If you use standard costs, the system might create journal entries for the variance, based on AAI 4141 (Inventory or Expense/COGS). The F4111 contains entries for each detail line in each transfer regardless of the way that you set this processing option. Values are:

Blank: Create one journal entry (debit and credit) for each detail line.

1: Create journal entries that are summarized by account number.

3. Lots on Hold

Use this processing option to specify whether to allow transfers from and to the lots that are on hold. Valid values are:

Blank: Do not allow transfers from and to the lots that are on hold.

1: Allow transfers from and to the lots that are on hold.

When NBLOTSTS is set to No or NBLOTSTS is not present in the EnterpriseOne Control System program (P99410), an approved lot or location does not have a status code. All non-blank codes indicate that the lot is on hold or unapproved.

When NBLOTSTS is set to Yes, the lot status is validated by a special handling code in table 41/L. All codes containing the special handling code 1 indicate that the lot is approved. All codes containing special handling codes other than 1 indicate that the lot is on hold or unapproved.

Enter Allowed Lot Status Group to Validate

Lot Group is the name of a user defined list of allowed non-approved lot status codes. Entry of a Lot Group name in the Processing Option will allow this Application to process lots whose lot status code is defined within the specified Lot Group Name.

When NBLOTSTS is set to No or NBLOTSTS is not present in the EnterpriseOne Control System program (P99410), an approved lot or location does not have a status code. All non-blank codes indicate that the lot is on hold or unapproved.

When NBLOTSTS is set to Yes, the lot status is validated by a special handling code in UDC 41/L. All codes containing the special handling code 1 indicate that the lot is approved. All codes containing special handling codes other than 1 indicate that the lot is on hold or unapproved.

4. Transfer Quantity

Specify whether to enable the transfer of quantities that results in a negative on-hand quantity. In this case, the quantity of the transfer is greater than the on-hand quantity. Values are:

Blank: Do not enable.

1: Enable.

Caution: Enabling a negative on-hand quantity is not compatible with using weighted average costs.
5. Lot Status Default

Use this processing option to specify the To Location’s location status. Values are:

Blank: Use the location status of the From Location as the default status for the To Location.

1: If the To Location’s lot status is on hold, do not change the location status for the To Location. If the To Location’s lot status is approved, use the location status of the From Location as the default status for the To Location.

2: Do not change the location status for the To Location.

When NBLOTSTS is set to No or NBLOTSTS is not present in the EnterpriseOne Control System program (P99410), an approved lot or location does not have a status code. All non-blank codes indicate that the lot is on hold or unapproved.

When NBLOTSTS is set to Yes, the lot status is validated by a special handling code in table 41/L. All codes containing the special handling code 1 indicate that the lot is approved. All codes containing special handling codes other than 1 indicate that the lot is on hold or unapproved.

6. Production Number On Hand Consumption

Specify how the Inventory Transfers program (P4113) selects production number on hand quantity from the Item Location Tag File table (F41021T).

Production number on hand is consumed whenever on hand quantity is not available to continue the transaction.

If you process inventory selection blindly, then the system consumes production number on hand quantity in the following order:

  1. Generic inventory.

  2. Inactive production numbers.

  3. Orphaned production numbers.

  4. Production number with the farthest end item demand date.

If you process inventory selection interactively, then you can select the production number from the options available on the Select Inventory for Consumption form (W42054A). Valid values are:

Blank: The program performs blind selection of inventory.

1: The program enables interactive selection of inventory.
