Use this program to advise warehouse personnel of what back orders can be filled with the incoming merchandise (received purchase orders and transfers) before the Transfer Receiving Register is run. The report can be run for special order lines (those tied to an SO) and/or restocking (those not specifically tied to an SO).
Program Overview
Received Purchase Orders print first and then the received Transfers. The program prints a page break between the two types of documents.
In addition, because transfers entry now has the capability to back-order quantity, the document lines that could be filled by incoming stock will also include transfers. The back-ordered sales order lines will print first and then the back-ordered transfer lines.
You can print only documents with a fillable line with a backorder.
The alternate bin locations are printed on the report based on the IC Static Control F/M setting, Print Alt Locations on Transfer Fill.
Processing Details
If you select to print POs only or both document types, this program prints the received purchase order that match the selection criteria and the back-ordered document lines that could be filled by these receipts. If you did not include POs in the document type selection, then this program does not print and runs for transfers. After the sales order line are printed that could be filled by a PO line, then any transfer lines for the item that have a back-ordered quantity also print. The "to" warehouse description prints in the column where the customer name printed for the sales orders.
If you select to print transfers only or both document types, this program prints the received transfers that match the selection criteria and the back-ordered document lines that could be filled by these receipts. If you did not include transfers in the document type selection, then this program does not print and instead returns to the menu. The program reads the transfer line file for all open receipt lines that have a received quantity. Since there can be multiple open receipts for one ticket, the report prints the transfer ticket number and total received once and then each receipt for that ticket prints on a separate line. If you included updated receipts, those also print. Then, the report prints the lines that could be filled by that received quantity. After the sales order line are printed that could be filled by a transfer line, then any transfer lines for the item that have a back-ordered quantity will also print. The "to" warehouse description will print in the column where the customer name printed for the sales orders.
