Receive into Inventory Manually

Explanation

This activity is used to manually receive material. You can even choose to receive only a part of the material. You also can specify the location to which the parts should be received. You can receive catch-unit enabled parts also by entering the catch quantity in addition to the quantity received.

You have the option of receiving position parts instead of real parts. This is possible only in the case of disassembly shop orders which are pegged to disposition shop orders. Note that in a shop order, you can either receive all the units of a part as position parts or all as real parts. For any given part, you cannot receive a combination of both types on a single order.

Prerequisites

• The material must be issued and operations must be reported.
• If you want to use multiple units of measure (UoM) when entering the quantities of parts to receive, an input UoM group must have been connected to the part and the Manufacturing Usage Allowed check box must have been selected for at least one input UoM (belonging to that input UoM group).
• If the order is connected to a control plan for which the Receipt Not Allowed check box is selected, the control plan analysis needs to be confirmed and all time triggers need to be stopped.

System Effects

• The material is reported as received at the specified inventory location. 
• Once received to a pallet delivery location, you cannot un-receive the items. A better practice would be to receive material to another location type and move it to the pallet delivery location later.
• If the shop order is customer order based and was created when a customer order line was entered, the received part is automatically reserved for the customer order line. A work in progress (WIP) transaction is created.
• If the received part is manually pegged to a demand, the parts will automatically be reserved for the demand.
• When you enter the shop order, you can specify that it should be closed automatically, provided that the number of parts received is within the closure tolerance. If it is, the shop order is closed automatically. If you have selected manual closure, you must close the shop order after you have completed the receipt.
• Project: If the shop order is pegged to a project miscellaneous demand or a project item, the material is automatically reserved to the demand source.
• Project activity: If the shop order is connected to a project activity the parts are received into the project inventory.
• Project delivery: If the shop order is created from the project delivery, the delivery project is updated with the quantity received.
• Project miscellaneous demand: If the shop order is created from the project miscellaneous demand, the project miscellaneous demand record is updated with the quantity received.
• MRO shop order: If the part is received on an MRO shop order, there are additional system effects that are based on the type of MRO order.
• Disassembly: If the part is serial-tracked, the serial will be removed from the serial structure in VIM. If position parts are received, they will be reserved to the next disposition order but will not be disconnected from the VIM serial structure. For further information refer to the about description for position parts.
• Assembly: The system will verify that the components are valid parts or alternate parts for the structure position or template. For each component part that is serial-tracked:
  • The serial will be set to Non-Operational.
  • The serial will be added to the serial structure in VIM. For further information see activity description for Enter or Modify Serial Structure.
  • A record will be created in the Replacement History for the serial component.
  • The Location for the serial component will be updated.
  • The Current Position for the serial component will be set to Contained.
  • The serial structure in Part Serial will be updated.
