BPCS/LX Tip of the Day: LX Inventory Pallet Status Flow

Four fields in the Item/Warehouse record (IIW file) affect the disposition of the

pallet status.

 

1.  Goods Receiving Code: You define these codes in Goods Receiving Maintenance (WHM130). The codes control whether or not the stock passes through inspection, what percentage, or quantity of a delivery to inspect, and the number of quarantine days, if any.

 

2.  Inspection Zone/Inspection Location: Either the Inspection Zone or the Inspection Location must be entered on the Item/Warehouse Master Maintenance screen WHM150D2-01.

 

3.  Default Inventory Status: If the status is 0 (Received) or 1 (Inspection), the item moves from the receiving location to the inspection location in inspection status. If the pallet status is not 0 or 1 (that is, 4 (Available) or 9 (Rejected)), the pallet moves to the inspection location with the default status, but the pallet will not proceed from the Inspection location to the Putaway location. You must manually move the stock.

 

4.  Pallet Status Codes: 0 (Received), 1 (Inspection), 4 (Available), and 9 (Rejected) are the only pallet status codes reserved by the system to update and advance inventory/pallet status. To do this Warehouse Management uses the following rules:

 

·    Rejected inventory goes from receiving to a Reject (type 9) Location with a Location Type A (Rejected) in the Location Extension file (ILE) record. All inventory received into a reject location is set to a pallet/inventory status of Reject (9).

·    Inventory received by Goods Receiving (WHM510) into a Receiving Location takes on the Default Inventory Status that is in the Item Warehouse file (IIW) record.

·    If the Default Inventory Status is 0 (Received), the system places the pallet status at 0 (Received) in the Receiving Location, I (Inspection) in the Inspection Location, and 4 (Available) if moved from Inspection to any palletized location other than rejection. If moved to rejection the Default Inventory Status changes to 9 (Rejected).

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Role-Based Security introduces Role type profiles and allows combining the use of Role profiles with the traditional LX User type security profile functionality. The new Role type profile can be defined to allow or deny access to All Products, Attention Key, Products, Programs, and Transaction Effects. Facility, Warehouse, and Company securities are still defined solely by the User profile settings and are not affected by the assignment of a Role. Where applicable, the Role authority is displayed alongside the User authority on the security profile maintenance screens making it easy to see where there are differences in authority between the User and the assigned Roles. 

When Users are assigned to Roles, security access in LX becomes a combination of authorities granted or denied by the Role, plus any User Exceptions. User Exceptions override authorities set by the Roles. A User can also be assigned to more than one Role.

Sales tax nexus is the connection between a seller and a state that requires the seller to collect and remit tax on sales made in that state. If you have nexus in California and Texas, for example, you must collect and remit sales tax in California and Texas.

Many states are expanding their nexus rules. Business activities like trade show attendance, drop shipping, employing remote workers, advertising, and housing inventory in other states can establish nexus. The rules vary by state and it can be challenging to keep up with all the places your business needs to register, collect, and remit sales tax.
