RE: Stock Location

["Trask, William" <WTrask@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'll see if I can remember some of this.

Regarding the purchase problem, check to see that you have lower level
allocation turned on for Advanced Order Entry functions in the Inventory
Company Profile. This is required to use Stock Locator. You can use batch,
lot or serial allocation.

Regarding the transfers, if you have locator set up for only one stockroom
it should prompt you for locations only in that stockroom. If the "To"
stockroom is not location controlled, you will not get a prompt.

                Subject:        Stock Location


                We are currently testing the Location Control (which is a
new feature in
                V3.5.2b Service  Pack 3) and there seems to be areas where
it is not
                functionning properly.

                We have the following setup : We have created a stockroom
where we have
                activated Location control (in stockroom definition, on the
3rd screen of
                Company profile setup 1/INUM )
                We have created the stockroom details for a few items in
that stockroom.

                When doing the Goods Receiving option (43/PMP) after having
input the
                corresponding purchase order, the system does not prompt for
a location
                within the stockroom to receive the items. According to the
documentation
                (Function Brief no 364 issue 1.0 on Location control) the
system should
                request for a location where to stock the item.
                Similarly, the location control feature does seem to work at
all for other
                options like Miscellaneous Receipts (3/INP)  and Stock
Adjustments
                (31/INP), Single Step Transfer (51/INP). For the 2 step
transfer
                (41,42/INP), the system only prompts for a location in the
'From'
                Stockroom. in the first step. In the second step, 'Confirm
Shipment
                Receipt' , the system does not prompt for the 'To' Location
                Location control features in SOP seems to be working
correctly though.

                Is anyone out there using Location control and could
indicate whether the
                above are bugs or is there anything missing in setup


                Regards
