The following fields are present on this tab :
Characteristics
|
The location types are used to codify the warehouse locations according to their storage characteristics: size, authorized statuses, technical constraints etc. |
|
Specify the location type category. |
|
Tick if this location type must be occupied by a single product reference. |
|
Tick if products must be assigned to this type of location. The non-assigned locations are not usable. |
|
This flag is used to define whether or not to select reorder locations. |
|
Tick if the dynamic location management has to fill each location on a first-unit-used basis. |
|
This field is used to select the location release method.
|
|
If the management of location release is delayed, it is necessary to specify in this field the number of hours during which the location will be unavailable following its release. This delay is strongly advised, in order to avoid disrupting the good functioning of the warehouse. In effect, a location that is not delayed is freed after the entry on the computer of an issue. If the physical movement has not yet taken place, the location will be re-allocated with the next receipt even though it is not yet available. This risks to create unpleasant surprises for the storeroom operatives that are trying to place a new pallet in the store! The delay is also used to protect the system against entry errors (cancellation of receipts or issues). |

Block number 2

It is possible to specify which sub-statuses are authorized in this type of stock movement. A contextual button makes it possible to enter them in a grid by selecting them from the stock status table or by entering a sub-status template with generic characters (*,?,#,!). On validating this grid, a check is carried out to keep only those corresponding to the chosen authorized statuses. If this field is left empty, it will be automatically loaded with the sub-status templates corresponding to the authorized statuses. |

Presentation
This tab is used to indicate the locations to be assigned and to view those that have already been assigned. These assignments can be manually entered or mass generated using the Location types function.
The grid contains the following information :
For a location stock of 20 STK, the system will create a requirement for 2*5 boxes = 100 STK. The location stock will be 120 STK (<Maximum quantity).
For a location stock of 25 STK, the system will create a requirement for 1*5 boxes = 50 STK. The location stock will be 75 STK (<Maximum quantity).
To manage the replenishment of breaks, it is possible to specify a threshold and a maximum quantity of 0. In this case, the replenishment will only be suggested in case of break on the location (this can be useful to replenish for sub-contractors). It is the only case where the economic quantity can be greater than the maximum quantity.
