Understanding Reversing Consumption

If you want to revert consumption records that you entered incorrectly, use the reverse consumption process. Also, you can use the reverse consumption process to correct the quantity balance when conducting an audit for outbound inventory consumption.

Note: You can use the reverse consumption process for full quantity reversal only.

You can use the reverse consumption process on orders that have been billed and replenished. In such case, the system adjusts the quantities, but does not reverse the billing and replenishment orders. When you reverse a consumption record, the system updates the following information:

Table	Information Updated
Outbound Inventory Agreement Acknowledge (F42I02)	Quantity Consumed = Quantity Consumed - Reversed Quantity Secondary Quantity Consumed = Secondary Quantity Consumed - Secondary Reversed Quantity Consumption Date = Blank Consumed Line Status = 0
Outbound Order Consumption Report File (F42I03) - Consumption Record	Consumption record is updated with consumption type. New record is added with the same consumption batch number and consumption type. Note. You can save a consumption record with the following consumption types: 1: Consumed record is not reversed 2: Consumed record is fully reversed 3: Consumed record is partially reversed (for future use) 4: Reversed record
Outbound Order Consumption Report File (F42I03) - Reversal Record	When you reverse consumption for a given consumption record, the system creates a corresponding reversal record for the same consumption batch number. The system updates the following information: A unique consumption ID Quantity Consumed = Quantity Consumed in original consumption record Secondary Quantity Consumed = Secondary Quantity Consumed in original consumption record Consumption Date = System Date Consumption Reported Date = System Date Consumption Type = 4
Outbound Inventory Item Balance (F42I021)	Quantity On-hand = Quantity On-hand + Reversed Quantity Secondary Quantity On-hand = Secondary Quantity On-hand + Reversed Quantity Quantity Consumed = Quantity Consumed - Reversed Quantity Secondary Quantity Consumed = Secondary Quantity Consumed - Reversed Quantity

Note: You can reverse a consumption record only once.
