Move into Several Stock Locations

Explanation

This function is used to move parts on a receipt line into several stock location. Receipt lines that are ready to be moved into several stock locations are in the To be Received status. This move function is only for single handled inventory registered purchase parts.

For parts that follow a receive case and are ready to be moved into stock, you can use the Move Into Stock window. This window only displays lines that are available for such moves. Note that receipt lines with pallet-handled parts are visible in the window, but you cannot move them through this move function. You cannot change any data in the window; the move operation leads to the same dialog boxes as the corresponding operation in the Purchase Order Receipt/Single. Work directly in the aforementioned window when handling receipt lines that do not follow the indicated receive case. This window only displays lines that are available for such moves.

Regardless of the starting point, right-click and then click Move to Multiple Locations. This opens the Move to Multiple Locations dialog box. In the Quantities - Purch/Invent Units area, you can see the quantity arrived. If you intend to move the entire quantity arrived, the sum of the quantities in the Purchase Qty to Move column should be the same as that of the quantity arrived.

Click New to create a line for each destination location. If you have connected a default stock location to the inventory part, this is displayed by default in the Location No column. Otherwise, the latest used location is displayed. Enter a purchase quantity to move and specify the desired destination location on each line. If you have created a line by mistake, you can delete it by selecting it and clicking Remove.

Prerequisites

• The part must be a single handled inventory registered purchase part.
• The arrival registration must have been done.
• Inspection results must have been entered for receipt lines with a receive case requiring inspection.
• The destination locations must have been entered in Inventory Locations. The locations must have been connected to proper location groups.
• You must specify any serial or lot/batch numbers before you are allowed to move the parts into a stock location.
• If you wish to convert ownership from supplier-owned to company-owned for parts moved to a stock location, change the value of the Ownership Transfer Point list from Receipt into Arrival to Receipt into Inventory in the  Company/General Data for Distribution tab. 

System Effects

The parts are received into several stock locations, and the status is updated to Received. If the parts are serial-tracked in inventory, they are received into stock locations with serial numbers. If the parts are serial-tracked at receipt and issue but not serial-tracked in inventory, they are received into a stock location without serial numbers.

If the ownership transfer point is Receipt into Inventory, the inventory parts moved into a stock location will be converted to the ownership type Company Owned. For normal purchase orders, postings are created with the debit type posting M1, Inventory, and the credit posting type M10, Receipt with Purchase Order. For purchase orders of the type external service order, postings are created with the debit type postings M1, Inventory and M15, WIP at Supplier, and the credit type postings M15, WIP at Supplier and M10, Receipt with Purchase Order. For purchase order lines with Company Rental Asset ownership the parts will be converted from Supplier Owned to Company Rental Asset ownership when parts are moved into a stock location. Purchase transactions with M91, Non-Inventory Receipt with PO Not-Invoiced, and M92, Purchase Non-Inventory Material Arrival, will also be created at this point for this type of purchase order.

If the Self Billing check box is selected on the supplier, and the ownership transfer point is Receipt into Inventory, the self-billing invoice will be created on receiving the inventory parts into a stock location. The quantity received into stock, and not the the total quantity arrived, will be considered in the self-billing invoice. 

For the sending location, postings are created with the debit posting type M3, Inventory Transfer, and the credit posting type M1, Inventory. For the receiving location, postings are created with the debit posting type M1, Inventory, and the credit posting type M3, Inventory Transfer.

Concerning moves with consignment-handled parts, postings are created with the debit posting type M3, Inventory Transfer, and the credit posting type M60, Consignment Stock, for the sending location. For the receiving location, postings are created with debit posting type M60, Consignment Stock, and the credit posting type M3, Inventory Transfer.
