Business Benefits

This enhancement allows users to view any/all exceptions when the actual stock received differs from expected values and then take appropriate actions to determine why exception(s) exist (e.g. determine if additional stock has or will arrive, etc.).

Note: For related documentation and workflows, see RE - Receipt Entry.

Usage

This report displays the actual and expected stock and quantities received for the following types of products:

  • Unit IDs (a.k.a. Serial Numbers)
  • Conveyance Ids (a.k.a. Pallet IDs)

Note: Stock that is NOT tracked by ID will NOT appear on this report!!!

After selecting an In-Transit number the user may to print the report in a number of formats including:

  • Summary (one line per product) and All Items (matches and exceptions)
  • Summary and Exceptions
  • Details (all Lots per Product) and All Times
  • Details and Exceptions

After selecting the amount of detail to print on the report the user may then choose to include ALL stock associated with the In-Transit or specify one or more ranges of products to display.

Note: It is possible that an In-Transit may be linked and received to more than ONE Receipt. The system will display ALL Receipts related to the selected In-Transit on the report parameter entry screen and also on the printed report to assist with reconciling information.

Note: Exceptions refer to any of the following scenarios when the actual and expected values do not match including:

  • Quantities
  • Weights
  • Conveyance or Unit IDs
  • Lots
  • Products
  • Expected stock does NOT arrive
  • Unexpected stock does arrive.
