How to: Move Components to an Operation Area in Basic Warehousing

If item processing operations occur at your warehouse location, then you may have to move items between internal bins to respond to internal source documents, such as production, assembly, or service orders at the location.

Note

For information about moving items between bins without source documents, see Internal Movement.

In advanced warehouse configurations, which are locations that use the Directed Put-away and Pick setup field, you can use the Movement Worksheet window to move items between bins. For more information, see How to: Move Items in Advanced Warehousing.

In basic warehouse configurations, which are locations that use the Bin Mandatory setup field and the Require Pick setup field, you can register movement of items to internal operation areas based on internal source documents in the following ways:

  • With the Inventory Movement window.

  • With the Inventory Pick window.

Note

Inventory picks also post negative item ledger entries as consumption and are only supported for production components. For more information, see the Inventory Pick window.

For detailed information about inventory movements, see the Inventory Movement window.

Two different roles can create the initial inventory movement. An assembly worker, for example, can create it from a released assembly order so that it shows up in the warehouse worker’s list of work to do. To create an inventory movement for assembly order lines that are ready to have components moved to their specified bins, the assembly worker uses the Create Inventory Movement function.

Alternatively, a warehouse worker can create it by pointing to the released assembly order in question. This is described in the following procedure.

Note

If the movement is for an assembly order where the item is assembled to a sales order, then you can define that the inventory movement document is automatically created when you create the inventory pick document that takes the finished assembly item and posts the shipment. To set this up, select the Create Movements Automatically field in the Assembly Setup window For more information about assembly orders and basic warehousing, see Handling Assemble-to-Order Items in Inventory Picks.

This procedure shows how to create an inventory movement from the Inventory Movement window by referencing a released assembly order as a source document. The procedure is the same when you move components for production orders and service orders.

To move components to an operation area in basic warehousing

  1. In the Search box, enter Inventory Movement, and choose the relevant link.

  2. On the General FastTab, fill in the No. field. You can press the Enter key to select from the number series.

  3. In the Location Code field, enter the location where the movement occurs.

  4. On the Actions tab, in the Functions group, choose Get Source Documents. Alternatively, fill in the Source Document field, and then choose the AssistEdit button in the Source No. field.

  5. In the Source Documents window, select the assembly order that you want to move components for, and then choose the OK button.

    For each needed component that can be moved, one Take line and one Place line are generated in the Inventory Movements window. All fields except the Qty. to Handle field are prefilled according to the source document lines. The Qty. to Handle field is set to zero until you enter the quantity that you have actually moved.

    You can change the bin code on a Take line but only according to availability. If you choose the AssistEdit button in the Bin Code field on a Take line, then the Bin Contents window opens and only shows bins where the component is available.

    You cannot change the bin code on a Place line. Only the bin code that is defined on the component line of the source document is accepted. This supports the principle that the role who requests a component, which is an assembly worker in this procedure, knows where the component must be placed. If you want to place the components in a different bin, then you must first change the bin code on the component line and then re-create the inventory movement lines.

  6. In the Qty. to Handle field, enter the full or partial quantity that you have actually moved. The value on the Take and the Place lines must be the same. Otherwise, you cannot register the movement.

    Note

    As in other warehouse activities, you can split the Place line by selecting Actions and then selecting Split Line. In that case, the sum of the two split Place lines must equal the quantity on the Take line.

  7. When you are ready to register the movements that you have performed, choose the Register Invt. Movement button.

    Warehouse entries are created reflecting that the components now exist in the bins specified on the assembly order lines.

    Note

    Unlike when you move components with an inventory pick, consumption is not posted when you register an inventory movement. That step must be performed separately by posting the assembly order output and consumption. For more information, see Assembly Order.
