Use this field to identify, for this entry transaction, if a non-conformance can be raised against an operational process in a routing. An operational process in this context is defined as a specific numbered operation in a routing, or an operation in a routing specifically related to a previous operation, that is the operation has a successor. This check box is only displayed if the NCS-Non-conformance activity code is active.

 Before setting the value of this check box you are advised to consider the role of users that have access to this entry transaction. Essentially this check box identifies if the user of this entry transaction can raise a non-conformance incident requesting an investigation into a potential 'problem', where the source of the problem is an operation in a route. Typical routing operations within a manufacturing environment that could cause a problem (a non-conformity) might be that the setup and run time are not adapted to the machine, the order of an operation must be changed, additional operations are necessary or a more stable machine must be used. Employees with the experience to raise a non-conformity against a perceived fault in an operational process are typically, therefore, the more senior or skilled workers such as a foreman, shop floor manager and design engineer. In many organizations, an employee might not have the skills to determine a non-conformity for a process but they might have the skills to determine a non-conformity on a resource such as reporting a broken machine or a defective tool. If this entry transaction applies to that group or those types of employees you should consider setting the Non-conformance - resource flag (field NCSRES) instead.

Use this field to identify, for this entry transaction, if a non-conformance can be raised against a resource used for a routing operation. A resource in this context is defined as a single machine (a work center), or a work center group, or a labor resource, or both a machine and a labor resource. This check box is only displayed if the NCS-Non-conformance activity code is active.

Parameter used to define the display type.

Movement group, initialized by the movement group of the transaction being used.
This statistical information is recorded in the stock journal when saving the receipt/disposal movements. This movement group comes from the miscellaneous table number 9. The value given in the transaction setup corresponds to a default value that can/cannot be visualized and/or modified according to the transaction setup (entered, displayed, hidden field).

Statistical information used in the stock transactions associated with the shipment. This value is fixed if the original document does not reference a movement group. Otherwise, the movement group of the document at the origin of the quality control is suggested in priority.

This field is used for this transaction to specify the code of the accounting automatic journal used to generate, via the stock accounting interface, the accounting entries with respect to the stock movements created with this transaction.
This field can only be accessed if the SCOIFA - WIP accounting interface parameter is set to No.

A stock transaction code is used to specify rules within a similar transaction type.

These codes must be created in the miscellaneous table number 14.

The movement code is used to define specific stock receipt and issue rules for some transactions. For example, a dedicated transaction associated with experienced users can authorize the receipt to stock of goods in A status while the other users may be associated with a transaction authorizing the receipt to stock of goods in Q status.
This will only be possible for product categories authorizing this type of receipt rules and having such a movement code (see Product category).

Parameter used to define the display type.

Setup used to define, for this entry transaction, the material consumption mode:

• According to the immediate planned quantity: all the planned materials are consumed upon first tracking, no matter what the quantity of finished product actually produced,

Parameter used to define, for this entry transaction, whether the stock issue location of each material line can be initialized with the default value entered in the header (if it is empty).

This parameter is a constraint for the user to choose manually the stock for consumption.

Movement group, initialized by the movement group of the transaction being used.
This statistical information is recorded in the stock journal when saving the receipt/disposal movements. This movement group comes from the miscellaneous table number 9. The value given in the transaction setup corresponds to a default value that can/cannot be visualized and/or modified according to the transaction setup (entered, displayed, hidden field).

Statistical information used in the stock transactions associated with the shipment. This value is fixed if the original document does not reference a movement group. Otherwise, the movement group of the document at the origin of the quality control is suggested in priority.

This field is used for this transaction to specify the code of the accounting automatic journal used to generate, via the stock accounting interface, the accounting entries with respect to the stock movements created with this transaction.
This field can only be accessed if the SCOIFA - WIP accounting interface parameter is set to No.

A stock transaction code is used to specify rules within a similar transaction type.

These codes must be created in the miscellaneous table number 14.

The movement code is used to define specific stock receipt and issue rules for some transactions. For example, a dedicated transaction associated with experienced users can authorize the receipt to stock of goods in A status while the other users may be associated with a transaction authorizing the receipt to stock of goods in Q status.
This will only be possible for product categories authorizing this type of receipt rules and having such a movement code (see Product category).

Select this check box to specify that the stock to issue for this transaction should be automatically determined. The automatically determined stock information is the product, the unit, and the quantity.

If this check box is not selected, the stock must be manually chosen.

Automatic determination is based on:

• the filters entered at product category level, especially the issue flow management rules for the relevant movement type/code.
• the allocation rule dedicated to the relevant movement,
• the stock information entered on the line.

The automatic determination rules applied to stock to issue are the following:

• If the product is managed by Receipt/Issue serial number, the serial numbers are necessary and sufficient. Other entered information is not used.
• If the product is managed by lot or lot/sublot, the lot number or lot/sublot numbers are necessary. The following information is used if it has been entered:
• The license plate number (in priority) or the location
• The status, the identifiers 1 and 2
• For the other products, at least one of these three pieces of information is needed.
• The license plate number (in priority) or the location
• Identifier 1
• Identifier 2

The following information is used if it has been entered:

• The license plate number (in priority) or the location
• The status, the identifiers 1 and 2

If the product is not managed by location on the site, and identifiers 1 and 2 are not specified, then only one stock line corresponds to the information entered.

When the entry transaction only concerns 'Pick location’ replenishments, this check box cannot be accessed.
