| Payable to supplier - to return quarantine inventoryIf the payable-to-supplier parameter is activated, to return
quarantined items to the vendor LN performs the following steps: - Automatically select the Return Quarantine Inventory Payable to Supplier 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 or rework orders.
Advise rejected items according to the
ownership fields. Consigned and customer owned rejected items are allocated for outbound handling
according to the Issue Strategy and Issue Ownership fields in the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session. 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 Available for Planning check box is selected in
the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session, 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 Pegged Inventory (whwmd2560m000) session.
- Do not update the inventory levels 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. This is required because in the
payable-to-supplier scenario, the company owned items were paid on receipt and
need to be paid back when returned. For customer owned or consigned items, do
not generate a purchase payment order.
Note Outbound inspections are not available for items
issued from quarantine to be returned to the vendor. Ownership for outbound order lines of purchase return or
rework orders The ownership of quarantine inventory does not
change when issued for returns to vendor or rework. Therefore, LN copies the ownership
settings of the original purchase order or production order (the one with which
the goods were received) to the outbound order lines generated from the return
order or rework order, except for the Issue Ownership field. This is set by Warehousing. The Internal Payment field of the original order has no impact on the ownership
fields of the outbound order line. The following table shows the ownership of
the original order and the resulting ownership settings on the outbound order
lines. | |
