Flagged Item Report (ICR830)

Using Reports

Use this program to obtain a report of all items flagged by the End-of-Period Update.

Usage, lead time, frozen controls and ignore low sales each print a new page on the report. Anything flagged indicates there has been a variance from normal processing.

The usage page(s) indicates if usage is unusual due to high sales (period usage is greater than the previous 5 periods usage), low sales (usage is less than 1/2 unit), or a stockout (over 13 days in period where item was out of stock).

The lead time page(s) indicates if lead time is abnormal (a lead time causing a greater than 50% change in average lead time).

The frozen controls page(s) indicates which items were frozen (items are only frozen by the user).

The ignore low sales page(s) indicates which item are set to ignore low sales and the number of periods left to ignore.

This report is a to determine what is to be done with the item, i.e., whether usage, the safety allowance, lead time, frozen controls or ignore low sales are to be adjusted. Users should make adjustments through the Warehouse/Item F/M Program or the Item Flag/Restocking_SMG000_000 Program. Once adjustments are made, the Item Flag/Restocking_SMG000_000 Program is used to automatically reset the item restocking amounts.

Report information includes:

·   Usage: warehouse, vendor, item class, item, stocking unit of measure, movement class, season code, qualified usage, actual usage and stockout days for the 12 previous periods. The total items listed with flagged usage is also included.

·   Lead time: warehouse, vendor, item class, item and description, movement class, season code. The date and lead time for the last 5 receipts and average lead time for each item is also printed. The total number of items listed with invalid lead time is also included.
