Warehouse Inspections (whinh3122m000)

Use this session to view and maintain inbound and outbound inspections.

For inbound and outbound inspections, you can approve or reject all of the inspected items at once. For inbound inspections, you can also destroy inspected items. To finalize an inbound or outbound inspection, you must process the inspection after approving, rejecting or destroying the inspected quantities.

Inspection results for individual inspection lines or parts thereof are specified in the Warehouse Inspection (whinh3622m000) session.

Peg distribution

If project pegging applies and the inbound lines are project pegged, the approved, destroyed and rejected quantities are distributed across the available receipt line pegs. For outbound order lines, the approved and rejected quantities are distributed across the outbound order line pegs.

You can view the peg distribution for the specific inspection using the Peg Distribution option that starts the Receipt Line Peg Distribution (whinh3528m000) session for inbound inspections and the Outbound Order Line Peg Distribution (whinh2190m000) session for outbound inspections.

You can view the Peg Distribution option if project pegging is implemented. This option is enabled if Project Pegging field is selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.

Inventory ownership

In the Warehouse Inspection (whinh3622m000) session, you can approve, reject, or destroy items by owner.

To look up inspection records

This session uses filters. The status line of this session shows the active filter. You may need to change the filter to find the inspections you are looking for. To change the active filter, on the appropriate menu, click Filter Inspections and select the required filter.

Note
