    Select Warehouse Availability Inquiry (P46230).

    When you initially access the Warehouse Availability Inquiry program, the system displays the Search By subform and the Item Balance subform. The system enables the License Plate tab by default. When you enter a non-license plate warehouse in the Branch/Plant field, the system disables the License Plate tab.

    The system displays information in the Item Balance subform when you enter a warehouse branch/plant and data in any one of the following field combinations on the Item/Location/Lot tab:

    • Item only.

    • Item and location.

    • Item and lot/serial.

  2. On the Search By subform, Item/Location/Lot tab, complete these fields:

    Item Number

    A number assigned to an item. The number can be in short, long, or third item number format.

    Location

    The area in the warehouse where you receive, store, or ship inventory. The format of the location is user defined and you enter the location format for each branch/plant.

    Lot/Serial

    Enter an alphanumeric code that identifies a lot or a serial number. A lot is a grouping of the same item with specific characteristics.

    Branch Plant

    Enter an alphanumeric code that identifies a separate entity within a business for which you want to track items and costs. This entity might be a warehouse location, job, project, work center, or branch/plant.

    This is a required field. You must enter a branch/plant that is warehouse enabled. When you enter a non-license plate warehouse, the system disables the License Plate tab on the Search By subform.

    Omit Zero Quantities

    Select this check box to hide inventory balance information with zero quantities. If you do not select this check box, the system displays inventory balance information with zero on-hand quantities.

  3. Click the Find button.

    The system displays data in the Item Balance subform.

  4. On the Item Balance subform, click the link to a location record.

    When you click the link to a location, the system collapses the Item Balance subform and displays the Warehouse Location Detail subform.

    The Warehouse Location Detail subform displays information that is stored in the Location Detail Information table (F4602) such as unit of measures levels, unit of measure structures, and quantities.
