TWL return-adjust and reason unavailable codes

To facilitate return merchandise (RM) entry, especially for vendor return, and to ensure that the correct unavailable reason is released with the order, set up Return-Adjust Reason codes. These codes must match TWL's Return Reason Codes and Adjustment Codes.

Because inventory is controlled by TWL, the codes that are used to manage inventory are controlled by TWL. Specific reason codes are used by TWL to determine how to handle stock that is unavailable for sale. These reasons are hard-coded in TWL. Therefore, to synchronize TWL with the system, you must set up these codes:

SA Table Code Value Setup-Reason Unavailable that match TWL’s Adjustment Codes
SA Table Code Value Setup-Return Adjust Reason that match TWL’s Return Reason Codes.

This table shows information specific to each code:


Code	Term	Description
I	Inventory Hold	Damage occurred within the warehouse
L	Liquidation	Stock with salvage value
O	Overage	Received quantity greater than ordered
Q	Quality Assurance	Inspection being performed
R	Returns Hold	Inventory returned by the customer
S	Scrap	Goods scheduled to be scrapped
T	Transport Damage	Damage occurred in transit
W	Work-In-Process	Kits that are scheduled for assembly
Blank	Available	Inventory available for sale

If you used any of these code characters previously for any unavailable reason codes other than for TWL, you must redefine them so the codes match.

When appropriate, run WL Administration Initialize Warehouse to release these codes to TWL. Select the Create WL Table Setup option to release the SA Table Code Value Setup Reason Unavailable and Return Adjust Reasons to TWL.

You can set up only the codes relevant to your business, or you can set up all of these codes. You should discuss this setup with your Infor business consultant before proceeding.

Note: During receiving, the status for a receipt into a zone I or T is automatically set to I (Inventory Hold) or T (Transport Damage). You can control this default with the parameter 6265, Hold I and T Zones. Retain the default, Yes, to automatically set the status to match Zones "I" and "T". Select No to not automatically set the status; allowing the operator to specify the status.

If a code is deleted from SA Table Code Value Setup, you must manually delete that code from TWL.

Caution:

After you implement your TWL system, making changes to these codes can adversely affect your operation and conflict with system performance. You should discuss any potential changes with your Infor business consultant before proceeding.
