Re: Receiving Report Generation Facility wise -- BPCS-L

We get this in 405 CD.

You might review your settings for warehouses in facilities, transactioneffects, parameters both system and accounting.

We keep track of inventory, engineering, costs, orders, General Ledger byfacility.


We have warehouses setup by facility and type of product.
e.g. facility 20 has warehouses 21 22 27 29
where 1st character is facility, last facility is item type
except "9" is for rejects for QC decision if repairable or need to scrap.

Thus, all raw materials for facility 20 flow into warehouse 27, untilissued to production in warehouse 22..The Purchase Orders call for the material to be delivered to the relevantfacility, where the Receiving clerk needs to key in a valid PO# whichmatches the warehouse it was to be sent to.

The act of recieving the inventory against the Purchase Order, generates aPurchase Receipt transaction, and a post to the General Ledger, as dictatedby the rules in the ITE transaction effect file. The transaction includeswhat item, quantity, facility, date, vendor, just about everything we need.

The actual transactions generate an audit trail, which the receiving clerkhas the option of not moving to printer until end day, so that all reportsfor one person's efforts print together, instead of intermingled with otherpeople. This shows what was received that day, although the partsintermingled based on when they arrived.

We have got 3 way match going, so reports can be generated off of the 3sets of files, to show recent events, what activities not yetmatched. BPCS also comes with some reports that show this ... such asinventory receipts not yet matched with a vendor invoice.

We use Query/400 very heavily to generate reports and inquiries tosupplement what comes with BPCS, such as ITH Inventory History data listedin various shapes and sizes..

There's also some settings in the system parameters to define how many daysoff acceptable before ranking deliveries as early or late, so we can reviewhistorical performance by vendor and by item, to see how trustworthy thepromise dates for future shipments. We have also created some rankingreports off of this data, to show which vendors relative reliability.

Dear All,
Is it possible to generate Puchase Receipt through PUR550 ( UTransaction) facility wise. Each facility we should be able to get aseparate receiving report with facility specific running numbers. Isthere any option available in system parameters to set such scenario.
