Using the Search Balance ID Screen

Use this screen to search for balance IDs or containers to move. If the Move Full Container (when scan container only) has a value of 1, you can move all balance identities in a container in a single move.

  1. To search for balance IDs to move, specify a value in the Search field, specify filter criteria, or both. In the Search field, you can scan a location, item number, lot number, or container. To specify filter criteria, specify values in one or more of these filter fields:
    Location
    Scan the location of the balance ID.
    Item
    Scan the item number.
    Lot
    Scan the lot number.
    Container
    Scan the container.
  2. To search for a full container to move, scan a container in the Search field or in the Container filter field but leave the other filter fields blank.
  3. If needed, select Next to run the search. The search is automatically run when you scan a value in the Search field.

    If you are searching for balance IDs, the transaction will search for them according to the sequence specified by the Search field search sequence parameter. Search results will be limited by any filter fields that contain data, and those fields will be excluded from the search sequence used for the Search field. For example, if your search sequence is set up to search first for locations, then items, and then lots, and you specify value A in the Item filter field, and then scan value B in the Search field, the search will first look for balance IDs with location B and item A. Then it will look for balance IDs with lot B and item A. It will not look for balance IDs with an item value of B because you specified A in the Item filter field. If the search finds one or more matches, it will stop the search sequence and list the results.

    Only balance IDs containing values that match the specified search criteria will be found. Either a balance ID is automatically selected from the results and displayed on the Report Move screen, or the search results are displayed on the List Balance ID screen.

    If you are searching for a full container, and the Move Full Container (when scan container only) has a value of 1, the Report Move screen is displayed.
