| Inventory disposition - to return rejected inventory LN performs the following steps: - Automatically select the Return Disposition Goods check box in the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session for the warehouse order generated from the
purchase return order.
- Copy the values of the ownership fields from the original
purchase order to the outbound order lines. For more information, refer to Ownership for outbound order lines of purchase return orders.
Advise rejected items according to the
ownership fields. Consigned and customer owned rejected items are allocated for outbound according to
the Issue Strategy and Issue Ownership fields. View allocations for customer owned and consigned receipts
in the following sessions: - Consigned Receipts (whwmd2550m000)
- Customer Owned Receipts (whwmd2550m100)
Items blocked for inspection are considered
available for outbound advice and picking lists. Blocks for inspection are
lifted when the goods to be returned are shipped. - When shipping rejected items to be returned, remove blocks for
inspection. If the Disposition Inventory Blocked for Planning check box
in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session is selected, decrease the
quantity blocked for planning in the inventory overview sessions. If the items
are project inventory, also decrease the quantity blocked for planning and the
on-hand quantity in the Project Inventory (whwmd2560m000) session.
- Do not update the inventory overview sessions if items are not
shipped, but moved back to the reject location from the staging location
without an inventory adjustment, for example, if shipping cannot take place
because transportation is unavailable.
- Process the inventory transaction according to the settings of
the ownership fields on the outbound order line. For company owned returned
items, generate a credit note. For customer owned or consigned items, do not
generate a purchase payment order.
Note Outbound inspections are not available for
inventory disposition. Ownership for outbound order lines of purchase return
orders The ownership of disposition inventory does not
change when returned. Therefore, LN copies the ownership settings of the original purchase order (the
one with which the goods were received) to the outbound order lines generated
from the purchase return order, except for the Issue Ownership field. This is set by Warehousing. The Internal Payment field of the original purchase order has no impact on the
ownership fields of the outbound order line. The following table shows the
ownership of the original purchase order and the resulting ownership settings
on the outbound order lines. | |
