Scrap Returned Goods
Explanation
Use this function to scrap returned material that is defective or that, for any reason,
is not going to be returned to inventory. You can scrap the received parts from
the
Return
Material Authorization, Return Material Authorization Lines or
the
Receive Authorized Returns
window.
Note that for catch unit enabled parts, you must specify the catch quantity scrapped. This
applies when you scrap returned material.
There are two different procedures used for scrapping parts. One for parts returned from external customers,
that is a customer
that belongs to another company other than to which the site entering the return
material authorization (RMA) belongs (this could
also be a customer connected to a site that belongs to another company).
The other procedure is for internal customers that are connected to a site that belongs
to the same company to which the site where the RMA is entered belongs.
When returning from an internal customer, parts will be stored in internal
order transit during the transportation between sites. A scrap can only be
done by picking parts that exist in internal order transit, and scrapping them.
Handling RMA for an
external customer is explained below.
In a line in the lower part of the window, enter the quantity of items being
scrapped for a specific scrapping cause. It is possible to add more to an existing
scrapping cause, e.g., if you are scrapping a part with the scrapping cause Broken and
there already exists a line in this tab window with parts that have been scrapped with the
scrapping cause Broken, then you do not enter a new line. You simply add the part to be
scrapped to the already existing line by adding the quantity in the Qty to
Scrap
column. One received item can only be scrapped with one scrapping cause.
Prerequisites
- The RMA line must have the Released
status.
- The part to be scrapped must be an inventory part.
System Effects
- The parts are entered as scrapped.
- Postings and inventory transactions are created when parts are scrapped. After this you
can no longer update update prices and customer order line information on the RMA line.
- If the directly delivered material is directly
retuned to the supply site's inventory via a receipt RMA, then a return record
will be created against the respective purchase order in the sales site.
