Restocking a Surgical Resource Par Location

This section describes the typical procedure used to physically restock a surgical resource par location.

To physically restock a surgical resource par location:

1. Generate the appropriate reports for the material being restocked at the surgical resource par location.

   For item issues out of inventory, the IN Shipping Document (inventory shipping document) report (INC6503) can be requested to accompany the delivery of the stock items to the surgical resource par location. For purchased items, a Receiver Delivery report (POY5030) can be generated to accompany the stockless and non-stock items to the par location. This report, along with the service operation acknowledgment of the items sent, ensures that the par locations are updated with the correct quantities.

2. Compare expected receipts against actual receipts and record discrepancies.

   When restocking a surgical resource location, verify that the quantity delivered to the location is the same as the quantity expected. If the actual quantity received is different from the expected quantity, record the variation on the report.

3. Manually restock the surgical resource par location's bin or compartment with the received stock.

   Refill the bins or compartments in the surgical resource location with the received stock.

4. Complete the restocking event in the SRS application.

   The final step of the restocking event takes place in the third-party SRS application. Typically, the person restocking the surgical resource par location updates the SRS application with the actual received quantities that are used to restock the bins or compartments in the surgical resource par location.
