Consumption Advice Errors and Exceptions

Consigned inventory transactions can result in errors during the processing of ownership transfers.

For example, if the consignment agreement associated with the consumption transaction is no longer valid, the process results in an error. When errors occur, the consumption transactions aren't included on the consumption advice. You must correct the transactions and resubmit them for processing.

Here are the steps to find and resolve errors and exceptions for consigned inventory transactions:

• Resolve error

• Resubmit transaction for processing

Resolve Error

You can search for consigned inventory related transactions that resulted in errors during processing on the Review Consumption Advice Exceptions page. You can also search for pending transactions that resulted in an ownership transfer error. Once you identify the pending transactions, you can review and resubmit the transaction for processing. Access the Review Consumption Advice Exceptions page from the Inventory Management work area.

Resubmit Transaction for Processing

Once you correct the consigned inventory transaction, the Create Consumption Advice process automatically processes the corrected transaction in the next run of the consumption advice. The process gives the corrected transaction a different consumption advice number. This number is for internal reference only, and isn't exposed to the supplier.
