Stocking Inquiries

You can use your mobile device to view the on-hand quantity and stocking locations for your goods in real time when you're performing tasks around your warehouse.

There are times when you need the ability to quickly find an item or where it could be stocked.

For example, suppose you’re in the middle of picking goods to fulfill a critical order and you find that there isn't sufficient quantity in the location to fulfill the order, you’d want to determine if the goods are stored in another location to complete your order.

You can view the on-hand quantity of an item in all locations and the on-hand quantity of all items in one location using a mobile device. Additionally, when your items are associated with a specific location, a search by item provides the list of locations associated with the item where you have nonzero on-hand quantity.

A search by location provides a list of all items associated with that location, even when you have zero on-hand quantity. Searching by location also provides a list of alternate locations that have on-hand quantity for that item.

To enable Item or MPN search capability, see Enable Item or MPN Search in the Implementing Manufacturing and Supply Chain Materials Management guide.
