Module relationships across packages
Many modules have an impact on the inventory level of items.
The following modules generate planned inventory transactions in the Inventory Planning module, and warehousing orders in the Warehouse Orders module:
Shop Floor Control
Production orders generate planned inventory transactions and
warehousing orders. Issues (components) and receipts (end products) are
reported back to the production orders.
Sales Control
Sales orders generate planned inventory transactions and
warehousing orders. Issues and receipts (return orders) from the warehouse are
reported back to sales orders.
Purchase Control
Purchase orders generate planned inventory transactions and
warehousing orders. Issues and receipts (return orders) from the warehouse are
reported back to purchase orders.
Service Order Control
Service orders generate planned inventory transactions and
warehousing orders. Issues and receipts are reported back to the service
orders.
Electronic Data Interchange and Quality directly influence
warehousing orders and procedures:
Electronic Data Interchange
Incoming and outgoing EDI transactions can generate warehouse
orders of type Issue or Receipt.
Quality
Incoming and outgoing goods can be approved based on Quality.
