Design Overview

This program reduces inventory of spoilage type wastage items to account for natural wastage that occurs over the shelf life of the product. This program affects only items with spoilage type wastage identified on ITEM_MASTER with a waste_type of ‘SP' (spoilage). Sales type wastage is accounted for at the time of sale.

This program should be scheduled to run prior to the stock count and stock ledger batch to ensure that the stock adjustment taken during the current day is credited to the appropriate day.

Restart/Recovery

The logical unit of work is an item/location. This batch program commits when the number of records processed has reached commit_max_ctr. If the program aborts, it restarts from the last successfully processed item /location.
