Question 293 - MB-330 discussion

Box 1: Ordered reserved

On-hand inventory available for all transactions except for sales orders.

Query your on-hand inventory

To check the availability of inventory, go to Inventory management > Inquiries and reports > On-hand list.

The On-hand list page is automatically updated when transactions are made in inventory. Those transactions might be forecasted, physical, or financial transactions.

For each matching item, the On-hand grid provides the following columns of inventory information.

* Ordered reserved - The total quantity that is reserved on ordered receipts. The value in this field represents the total quantity of items in outbound transactions that have a status of Ordered reserved. Items that are reserved as ordered aren't physically available in inventory. Therefore, they can't be directly picked and delivered.

* Etc.

Box 2: Inventory blocking

Automatic hold on inbound purchase order inventory.

Inventory blocking is part of the quality inspection process in Supply Chain Management. You can use inventory blocking to prevent items from being processed or consumed.

You can block inventory items in the following ways:

Manually

By creating a quality order

By using a process that generates a quality order

By using inventory status blocking

Box 3: Inventory status

Damaged on-hand inventory that can be transferred from a mobile device, leaving the undamaged inventory available.

Set up and use inventory statuses

You can use inventory statuses to categorize inventory. You can then initiate appropriate actions, such as replenishment or put-away work.

Here are some examples of ways that you can use inventory statuses:

Create inventory statuses for on-hand inventory, inbound transactions, and outbound transactions.

Specify a default inventory status for warehouse transactions.

Change an inventory status for items before arrival, during arrival, or when the items are put away during inventory movement.

Use an inventory status to price items that are returned and to plan item coverage during master planning.

Incorrect:

* Quality Order The Quality management for warehouse processes feature lets you integrate item sampling controls into the warehouse receiving process by using warehouse management processes (WMS).

Warehouse work can be automatically generated to move inventory to the quality control location, based on a percentage or a fixed quantity, or based on every nth license plate. After a quality order has been completed, work can be automatically generated to move inventory to the next location in the process, depending on the quality results.

The Quality management for warehouse processes feature extends the capabilities of the basic quality management feature. It provides the option to create quality orders for the inventory that is sent to the quality control location, although quality orders aren't always required. Therefore, it allows for a lightweight quality control process that is based on warehouse work.

* Nonconformance A nonconformance describes an item that has a quality problem. The nonconformance process lets you create a nonconformance order that describes a quantity of nonconforming material, the problem source, the problem type, and explanatory notes.
