ANY Process Demo: Inventory Put-Away SP

Overall process flow

The Inventory Put-Away SP process supports the goods receipt and put-away process in the warehouse based on an inventory put-away document generated in advance in Microsoft Dynamics BC. After selecting an Inventory Put-Away document, the system presents each available line to handle in sequential order. Next, if the item is tracked, enter the Lot and/or serial number. In the case of a serial number, that is the last step for a line. Optionally, depending on the location setup, enter a bin. Lastly, enter the quantity to handle. If the quantity to handle is less than the expected quantity to put away, the system splits the line, creating a new line with the quantity equal to the original outstanding quantity minus the quantity put away. Finally, the system posts the put-away document, which is reflected on the source document.

Steps

Make sure you have already set up the prerequisites for this process.

1. Select the Inventory Put-Away SP menu button.

   

2. The next page appears. Enter the Inventory Put-Away number that was created, or use F6=Lookup to select it from a list. Press F4=OK to confirm.

   

3. The system presents the first line available for put-away. Use F8=Previous Line and F9=Next Line to move through the put-away lines.

   

4. Enter a bin code where the items will be stored. Use F6=Lookup to view a list of bins. Continue by pressing F4=OK.

   

5. Enter the quantity to handle (for example, four, make sure it is less than the outstanding quantity) and press F4=OK.

   

6. By pressing OK, the system updates the Inventory Put-Away line in Microsoft Dynamics BC.

   To see the result in BC, go to Warehouse > Goods Handling > Order by Order > Inventory Put-Aways and select Edit to view your Inventory Put-Away. There are now two lines for item 70010:

   • The first line: the Bin Code and Qty. To Handle are populated, with the Quantity changed from 10 to four.
   • The second line: all data is copied from the first line, but the Qty. To Handle is reset to 0 and the Quantity is filled with the original quantity minus the Qty. to Handle of the first line.

   What actually happens is the execution of the Split Line function in the mobile process while updating the Qty. to Handle of the Put-Away document line.

   

7. The process moves to the next available line to handle. Use F9=Next Line to get item 80216-T, which is lot tracked.

   

8. The next step asks for a Lot Number. Enter a new lot number and continue with F4=OK.

   

9. Confirm the suggested bin code with F4=OK to go to the next step, or select a bin code from the list with F6=Lookup.

   

10. Enter the quantity to handle in this step. Enter a quantity that is less than the Quantity outstanding (for example, five). Confirm with F4=OK.

    

11. The process moves to the next available line to handle. Use F9=Next Line to get item 80102-T, which is serial tracked. Enter a serial number and continue with F4=OK.

    

12. Enter the bin code in the following step, or select one from a list. Confirm again with F4=OK.

    

13. No quantity to handle is requested because it is fixed at one for serial tracked items. The system updates the put-away in Microsoft Dynamics BC.

    To see the result in BC, go to Warehouse > Goods Handling > Order by Order > Inventory Put-Aways and select Edit to view your Inventory Put-Away.

    Note that the line with item 80216-T has also been split. The Quantity to Handle and tracking details are also updated.

    

14. The process moves to the next available line to handle. Press F7=Post to schedule the inventory put-away to be posted via the job queue.

15. The process returns to the first step, while in the background the put-away is being posted.
