VA Order Entry - Detail - Add VA Line field descriptions

Fields are presented in alphabetical order.

Group Name

If you select the Group option, specify a group name. The value you specify is validated against groups set up in KP Group Setup. When you add the group, a line is created for each product in the group on the VA Order Entry-Detail window. To make modifications, change the individual lines in the Line Items grid.

Line Type

Specify the type of product to add: stock or non-stock.

Product

If you select the Product option, specify a product. If you specified Stock for the Line Type, specify the finished product’s number. The product number must be valid. It must be active, but not a labor or BOD product. If you specified Non-Stock for the Line Type, the VA Entry Transactions–Non-Stock window is displayed so you can specify general product information including a description that defaults to this field.

Qty Based on Total

Select this option to have the quantity based on the units of the finished VA product. For example, if one fabricated item requires three each of this product and you specify 1 as the quantity needed, three are shipped.

If you did not select this option and specified 1 in the Qty Needed field, only one is shipped even though three are required to fabricate the VA product.

This field is accessible only when you are adding a line to an inventory component (IN) or internal process (IT) section.

Qty Needed

Specify the quantity that is required to fabricate one finished product. If you selected the Qty Based on Total option, the quantity is based on the units of the finished product.

The Qty Needed on this window is multiplied by the Qty Needed value in KP Group Setup to determine the total quantity products on that VA section line. The Qty Needed field on this window also indicates how many of each group are needed. The Qty Needed field in KP Group Setup indicates how many of that product are used in one group. Thus, the total quantity on the VA section line is derived by multiplying the two Qty Needed values together. For example, if each VA product requires 2.00 groups and there are 3.00 of a product in each group, then the line will have a total quantity ordered of 6.00.

Unavailable Reason

This field is available when you add a line to an inventory in (II) section to specify whether unused product for the line returns to on-hand or to unavailable inventory. To return unused portions to on-hand inventory, leave this field blank. To return unused portions for unavailable inventory (if, for example, unused portions are scrap), specify an unavailable reason code.

Unit

By default, the stocking unit from the Product Setup. Specify the unit for the product on the line you are adding. This field is accessible only when you are adding a line to an inventory component (IN) or internal process (IT) section.
