Item - Serials and Warehouses (whltc5100m000)

Use this session to view and maintain the data for serialized items that are individually recorded in inventory. Serialized items are individually recorded in inventory by serial number in the low volume scenario, which is active if the Serials in Inventory check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session is selected.

To change the serialized item inventory view, choose the appropriate option on the View menu.

You can also use this session to manually create a new serial number for a serialized item.

At the bottom of the overview session window, the total quantity of serial numbers is shown for the serialized item. Note that this is the quantity of serial numbers for the item, not the quantity in inventory of the item.

 

Item
Serial Number

serial number

You can manually enter a new serial number for a serialized item. The layout of manually entered serial numbers is not controlled by the serial number mask.

Note that if you enter a new serial number, you only add a serial number, you do not increase the inventory for the item. You can allocate a serial number that you enter in this way to a receipt line or an adjustment line.

You can only increase the inventory of an item by means of a warehouse receipt or an adjustment order, in which case you must link the serial number to the receipt line or the adjustment order line.

Status

The status of the serialized item. The serial statuses apply only to low volume serialized items. Possible values

Warehouse

The warehouse in which the serialized item is stored.

Available

If this check box is selected, the item with the listed serial number is available for issues from the listed warehouse and, if a location is defined, the location.

If this check box is cleared, the item with the listed serial number is not available for issues for any of the following reasons:

  • The item is blocked. When the item/serial number combination is blocked, this check box is automatically cleared for the item.
  • The item/serial number combination is not yet received in the warehouse or warehouse location.
  • An outbound advice is generated for the item. If the serial number is replaced on the outbound advice or the picking list, this check box is selected again.
Serial Origin

The origin of the serialized item.

Effectivity Unit

The effectivity unit that is linked to the lot to which the serialized item belongs. You can specify the effectivity unit of the lot in the Item - Lot (whltc1100m000) session.

Lot

The lot to which the serialized item belongs.

Order

The order from which the serialized item originates.

Issue Date

The date on which the serialized item is withdrawn from inventory.

Receipt Date

The date on which the items are actually received in the destination warehouse.

Partner's Serial Number

If the business partner's serial number for the item is available, you can enter it in the current field.

E-item Revision

The number of the engineering item revision.

Choose Search Revision, to search the most recent revision of the engineering item.

You can only search for the most recent revision if:

  • The item is revision controlled. Therefore, the Revision Controlled check box on the Items - General (tcibd0501m000) session must be selected for the item.
  • Item revisions are taken into account in the Lot Control module. Therefore, the Engineering Revisions in Lot Control check box on the Lot Control Parameters (whltc0100s000) session must be selected.
Inventory on Hand

The inventory on hand of the serialized item.

Note

The inventory on hand of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.

Inventory Date

A date that is assigned to items when they are stored. You can use inventory dates to retrieve items based on FIFO (First In First Out) or LIFO (Last In First Out), without carrying out extensive lot control.

The meaning of the inventory date is connected to the outbound priority of LIFO, FIFO, or the product expiry date of the item.

With outbound priority LIFO or FIFO, the default for the inventory date is the system date; however, you can overwrite this so that the inventory date does not have to be equal to the storage date. If the item has a particular shelf life, the inventory date is the product expiry date defined for the item.

Inventory Blocked

The inventory on hold of the serialized item.

Note

The inventory on hold of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.

Location

The location in which the serialized item is stored if it is on hand.

Allocated

The location allocated inventory of the serialized item.

Note

The allocated inventory of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.

Location Allocated

The location in which the serialized item is stored if it is allocated.

Inventory on Order

The inventory on order of the serialized item.

Note

The inventory on order of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.

Inventory Unit

The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter.

The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock.

Blocked for All Transactions

If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for all transactions.

Related topics

Blocked for Outbound

If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for issuing. Therefore, you cannot issue the serialized item. You can (un)block the serialized item in the Stock Point - (Un)Block Serials by Transaction (whwmd6136m000) session.

Blocked for Transfer (Issue)

If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for transfer out of the warehouse/location. You can (un)block the serialized item in the Stock Point - (Un)Block Serials by Transaction (whwmd6136m000) session.

Blocked for Assembly

If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for assembly. Therefore, you cannot use the serialized item for the assembly of goods. You can (un)block the serialized item in the Stock Point - (Un)Block Serials by Transaction (whwmd6136m000) session.

 

Print Serials by Warehouse

Starts the Print Serials by Warehouse (whltc5400m000) session. By default, LN starts this session to print the report.

Search Revision

Searches the most recent revision of the engineering item.

You can only search for a revision if:

  • The item is revision controlled. Therefore, the Revision Controlled check box on the Items - General (tcibd0501m000) session must be selected for the item.
  • Item revisions are taken into account in the Lot Control module. Therefore, the Engineering Revisions in Lot Control check box in the Lot Control Parameters (whltc0100s000) session must be selected.
Product Configuration

Shows the relevant configuration of the assembly item, if the item is a manufactured item with order system FAS. For more information, refer to Product Configuration (PCF).
