Miscellaneous Transactions

Complete miscellaneous transactions using a mobile device to efficiently issue goods out of your warehouse or receive goods without documentation in real time.

A miscellaneous transaction is a transaction, such as a miscellaneous issue or miscellaneous receipt, that you can use to issue material that doesn't have or require documentation support. You can create miscellaneous transactions to make ad-hoc adjustments to on-hand quantities or to issue material to individuals or projects that aren't in inventory or receiving.

You're able to walk towards the counter or stocking location with a mobile device, scan the item, input the quantity, scan or enter the location information (locator and subinventory), and add the item to a list. Additionally, you can add items to the list by scanning or entering numerous items at once.

When performing miscellaneous transactions, you can select a seeded or user-defined transaction type before performing the miscellaneous transaction.

Miscellaneous Issue

Use the Miscellaneous Issue mobile page to issue out material against an account alias or account number. With this mobile page, you have a choice of scanning using the barcode scanner or entering details of the location and items.

You may want to create miscellaneous adjustments to item quantities for a variety of reasons within an inventory organization. For example, let’s say a hospital stock room has a walk-up counter where nurses and orderly staff can come to request supplies. In these scenarios, you need the ability to grab and issue the goods quickly.

Before submitting, you can review the items that you added to the list and make any necessary adjustments by clicking Edit. Then add an account or account alias and complete the transaction submission.

Miscellaneous Receipt

Use the Miscellaneous Receipts mobile page to quickly receive goods into your warehouse or stockroom in real time.

You can use a mobile device to scan the item and location information, and then enter the quantity before completing the transaction. You can also scan or input lot and serial number details, such as supplier lot, lot origination date, lot maturity date, lot expiration date, and supplier serial number.

Before submitting, you can review the items that you added to the list and make any necessary adjustments by clicking Edit. Then, add an account and complete the transaction submission.

Note: You must first enable the Item or MPN search field for miscellaneous transactions. You may also need to enable item class security.

For more information on how to enable Item or MPN search and item class security, see Enable Item or MPN Search and Enable Item Class Security in the Implementing Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management guide.
