Quick Transfer Adjustment (ICE350)

How To

Use this program to transfer a quantity of an item from one warehouse to another.

Updating the on hand quantities of the items according to the transfer amounts occurs immediately as the transfer is updated. Two records of the transfer (one for each warehouse) are created in the adjustments file and are available for printing on the next Adjustment Register.

The Quick Transfer Adjustment (ICE350) program uses the Costing Method designated the Static Control F/M (ICF980) program instead of Standard Cost.

A scrolling feature displays the most recent transactions recorded at the bottom portion of the screen. This provides additional safeguards against user error due to oversight or transaction duplication.

Access this program by choosing Inventory Control -->Warehouse Transfers -->Quick Transfer Adjustment.

Usage: If the "To" warehouse’s restocking warehouse is the "From" warehouse, then the "From" warehouse gets the usage updated if the "From" warehouse has the Replenish flag on the Main screen of Warehouse/Item F/M (ICF920) set to Y.

Lead Time: If the "To" warehouse’s restocking warehouse is the "From" warehouse, then the "To" warehouse lead time type is set to "A" for abnormal only if the item is stocked and the Replenish flag on the Main screen of Warehouse/Item F/M (ICF920) set to Y. Otherwise, the lead time flag will be blank.

EWMS Processing Note

The Quick Transfer Adjustment (ICE350) program is disabled for any Radio Beacon controlled warehouses.

 

Use the following fields to enter a quick transfer adjustment:

1. From Warehouse

Enter the warehouse FROM which the item was transferred. The entry must be a valid warehouse code. Press Enter (CR) to default to the warehouse assigned to the terminal. Press F2 or image\find_shg.gif to search.

2. To Warehouse

Enter the warehouse TO which the item was transferred. The entry must be a valid warehouse code. Press F2 or image\find_shg.gif to search.

3. Item

Enter the item number to transfer. The entry must be a valid item number. Press F2 or image\find_shg.gif to search.

If the item does not update inventory (as set by the IC Control flag), the following message will display: "
This is an uninventoried item. Cannot Transfer. CR-Continue".
If the item is inventoried, but does not exist in the specified warehouse, the following message will display: "
Item must be in the ‘from’ warehouse. CR-Continue".

4. (Optional) Serial/Lot Number

If this item is not a serial/lot item this field is skipped. Enter the serial/lot number. Press F2 or image\find_shg.gif to search.

image\pinpurpl_shg.gif You now have the ability to cost serial and lot items by the system cost (costing method for the module). The feature provides for GAAP compliance. For the FACTS SO, IC and MC modules, you can decide if the cost for serial and lot items will be averaged actual (as it has always operated in the past) or system cost (costing method for the module). The default setting for each Static Control F/M is A-Averaged Actual (same behavior as they have before the monthly is applied). Users who want to take advantage of this change will need to change the option to S-System Cost for each of the applicable modules. The net result of selecting S-System Cost is that serial/lot items will be costed like non-serial/lot items. The results of this program are affected by this selection.

5. Transfer Quantity

Enter the quantity to transfer (per stocking unit of measure). If you set up multiple units of measure on the Item F/M screen for the item entered, you can press F2 or image\chum2_shg.gif to change the unit of measure.

6. Transfer Memo

Enter the optional memo regarding the adjustment (up to 25 characters). This memo overrides the warehouse transfer code description that prints on the Adjustment Register. Press Enter (CR) to default to no memo and the warehouse transfer code prints on the register. Press F2 or image\PREVMENU_shg.gif to default to the memo previously used.

7. Ok to update?

Enter Y or N whether to record the transfer and update the on hand quantities. Press Enter (CR) to default to Y.

Upon updating the transfer, the user fields for this transaction are cleared and scrolled to the bottom portion of the screen and the program returns to the item field #3 to await further transfers for the displayed warehouses.

You can enter more items, or press image\stop_shg.gif to exit item entry and access the To warehouse field. To restart line item entry, press the image\plus_shg.gif icon. You can change to warehouses and continue entering items or press F4 again or the Exit button to exit.
