Put Aways
Putting away received lines is the process by which goods are moved to their final destination.
These aspects are important when putting away received lines:
-
Lot and serial number information
-
Inventory or expense destinations
-
Packing units
-
Multiple distributions
-
Receipt line transfer
-
Split lines
-
E-signatures for approval
Lot and Serial Number Information
You can record lot and serial information or generate multiple lots and serial numbers for the material during put away.
If you select a receipt line for put away and the corresponding item is either lot or serial controlled, then you must enter the lot and serial information. If the complete receipt line corresponds to a single lot or serial range, then you can update the lot and serial information directly on the Put Away Lines page or the Put Away Line page. If not, then you can select the Record Lots and Serial Numbers item from the Actions menu to enter new lots and serial numbers.
When putting away a transaction that has a receipt routing of Standard Routing or Inspection Required, you can default lot and serial numbers that were previously entered on an advance shipment notice (ASN) or advance shipment billing notice (ASBN). This can increase your efficiency (especially for high volumes) and reduce errors when receiving lot and serial-controlled items.
Use the Record Lots and Serial Numbers page to view and select lot and serial numbers that were entered on an ASN or ASBN against the purchase order schedule. On the Record Lots and Serial Numbers page, click the Select ASN Lots or Select ASN Serial Numbers buttons to view the lots and serial numbers from the associated ASN or ASBN. After you make your lot and serial number selections, you return automatically to the Record Lots and Serial Numbers page where you can now make corrections such as delete, add, or override to the lot and serial numbers.

For lot-controlled, dual UOM items, the secondary quantity and UOM display on the Select ASN Lots page.
-
The Select ASN Lots and Select ASN Serial Numbers buttons on the Record Lot and Serial Numbers page are enabled for lot and serial-controlled items respectively, when an ASN or ASBN exists against the purchase order schedule. The ASN or ASBN also has to have lots or serial numbers entered. For example, if an ASN exists, but there are no lots or serial numbers, the buttons aren't enabled.
Alternatively, on the Put Away Lines and Put Away Line pages, you can select the Default Lots and Serial Numbers from ASN check box to accept all the lot and serial numbers entered on the ASN or ASBN without going to the Record Lots and Serial Numbers page. The Default Lots and Serial Numbers from ASN check box isn't visible by default on these pages. Add it by selecting the option from the View menu.
The Default Lots and Serial Numbers from ASN check box is available for selection only if these conditions apply:
-
You've previously enabled the Allow defaulting of lots and serial numbers from ASN option on the Manage Receiving Parameters page.
-
The item is lot controlled, serial controlled, or both.
-
An ASN or ASBN exists for the purchase order schedule.
-
The put away quantity is equal to the shipped quantity against the ASN line.
-
Lot and serial information was entered while creating an ASN.
Inventory or Expense Destinations
You can put away items to inventory or expense destinations. For inventory items, provide the subinventory and locator. For expense items, provide the deliver-to location.
E-signatures are captured for put aways only if the lines being put away have Inventory as the destination. If the line has Expense as the destination, the e-signature isn't applicable and not captured.
Packing Units
You can enter the packing unit if material is kept inside a packing unit after put away or transfer.
E-signatures are captured during the correction flow only if a line being corrected has the status as Delivered. E-signatures aren't applicable for other line statuses such as Received, Accepted, or Rejected.
Multiple Distributions
When a purchase order schedule contains multiple distributions and the receipt routing is set to direct delivery, the destination type defaults to Multiple. You put away at the distribution level if the receipt routing is direct delivery. You put away at the schedule level if the receipt routing is standard or inspection required. To expand the line and show all distributions, select the Show All Distributions item from the Actions menu of the Put Away Lines and Put Away Line pages.
For requisition-sourced transfer order lines, select the Show All Distributions item from the Actions menu to obtain the transfer order distributions and populate the receipt quantity for each distribution line. You can enter receipt quantities at the distribution level and the quantities for each distribution line are validated against the associated transfer order distribution quantity.
Receipt Line Transfer
Transfer material by moving between different receiving subinventories. When you provide the receiving subinventory, the receipt line status automatically moves to Transferred.
Split Lines
You can split a line to receive in partial quantities to different inventory locations.
Select Split Line from the Actions menu.
E-Signatures for Approval
If put away transactions are configured for approval using e-signatures, the E-Signature page opens when you put away a line and click Submit. Use the page to approve the transaction. E-signatures are captured for put aways only if the lines being put away have Inventory as the destination.
The e-signature IDs are recorded and available from the Manage All Lines and Transaction History pages.
