Warehouse management and landed cost
With Landed cost module certain pages in the Warehouse management page are updated to allow for order processing (particularly goods-in-transit processing) through the Landed cost module. This section discusses the other available fields and processes in the Warehouse management page.
Mobile device menu items
You can receive goods through a mobile device. First, you need to make sure that the mobile device menu and Warehouse management page are set up to accept goods on a goods-in-transit order.
Go to Warehouse management > Setup > Mobile device > Mobile device menu items to set up mobile devices for goods-in-transit processing.
To support goods-in-transit processing, the following work creation options are available for mobile device menu items:
GIT Put Away - Goods in transit item put away
GIT receive - Goods in transit item receiving
GIT receive and put - Goods in transit receiving and put away
While the configuration settings for these processes are similar to the purchase order receive and put away work creation processes, the goods-in-transit item receiving and put away processes include the Enable shipping container complete field.
If the Enable shipping container complete option is set to Yes, when put-away work is done, the Warehouse Management mobile app will include a new Shipping container complete option. When a worker selects this option, they'll be prompted to confirm that the container is complete. Afterward, all short receipts will be treated as an under transaction.
For more information, see Set up mobile devices for warehouse work.
Work templates
Landed cost creates a new work order type on the Work templates page called Goods in transit. This work order type should be configured similarly to purchase order work orders templates. For more information, see Create a work template.
Work header breaks
You can set up work templates that have a work order type of Goods in transit to split work headers. On the Work templates page, follow one of these steps:
In the Work order type field, select Goods in transit. On the General tab, set work header maximums. These maximums work in the same way that they do for purchase order work templates.
Use the Work header breaks button to specify when the system should generate new work headers based on sorting fields. For example, to create a work header for each container ID, select Edit query from the Action Pane and then add the Container ID field to the Sorting tab of the query editor. Fields that are added to the Sorting tab are selectable as grouping fields. To create grouping fields, select Work header breaks on the Action Pane, and then select the Group by this field column for each field that you want to use as a grouping field.
Landed cost creates an over transaction when the registered quantity is more than the original order quantity. After the system has completed a work header, it will update the inventory transactions status of the principal order quantity. However, first, it will update the amount that's associated with the over transaction after the principal is purchased.
If you cancel a work header for an over transaction that's already registered, the over transaction will be initially lowered by the canceled amount. After the over transaction reaches a quantity of zero (0), the record will be deleted, and subsequent amounts will be unregistered against the principal order quantity.
