Releasing QA hold status using the RF unit

Products that require quality assurance inspection are routed to an inspection area. After inspection, the products can be released from QA hold. You can assign an intermediate stock status to the products that is based on the results of the inspection. The products that can be put away are then assigned an available status and are visible to the system.

  1. From the RF main menu, select Material Handling > Quality Assurance.
  2. Select the hold status release method, and specify the pallet ID or truck number in the highlighted field or press Enter.

    Additional line-item information is available when you use the Arrow keys to scroll to the right, or press F6 to view details.

  3. Use the scroll bars to highlight the product, and then press Enter.
  4. Change the status to an intermediate hold status. This status indicates that the goods are not available for sale until they have been put away and the status is changed to blank. These values are valid:
    • Inventory Hold
    • Transportation Damage
    • Customs Hold
    • Overage
    • Vendor Hold
  5. Specify the quantity that you are releasing.
  6. Place the products on another pallet, and then scan the pallet ID.

    You may have changed the status in a previous step. If so, you cannot leave the products on the same pallet as products that still have a quality assurance status.

  7. If the pallet is full, in the Skid Full field, specify Yes. If it can hold additional stock, accept the default.
  8. Repeat steps as required to release additional products from QA hold.
