Prerequisite

SEEREFERTTO Refer to documentation Implementation

Screen management

To create the stock configuration, a depositor must be selected, then the tabs dedicated to each flow must be completed.

Header

Presentation

Entry of the depositor code.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Code representing the depositor. In logistics terms, the concept of depositor makes it possible to process separate flows or traffics within the same site. It covers the notion of order giving customer for the service provisions.
After the site, the depositor is the second access key to the Product, Input and Delivery Order files.
Concerning the location, the depositor code is entered if the location is assigned to the depositor or the product, and if the location is single-depositor or single-product and it is not empty.

Tab Reorder

Presentation

This tab contains those parameters used for the generation of a replenishment order.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Management

  • Split replenishment objects (field SRO)

This parameter induces the operation of the picking replenishment algorithm:

either the box is checked and the replenishment algorithm considers that the pending output movements are never executed in its calculations for available space on picking (the complete pallet replenishment rule is inhibited in case of stock-out replenishment),

or the box is not checked and the replenishment algorithm considers that the pending output movements are always executed in its calculations for available space on picking (the complete pallet replenishment rule is systematically used in case of locations larger than a standard pallet).

  • Replenishment balance readdressing (field IPAAUTTRF)

The system authorizes the automatic transfer of incomplete pallets. This value is on a par with the concept of replenishment balance readdressing inthe reserve store from where this pallet is unstocked.

RO setting up

  • Pick mono prep. zone (field RPNPKZPIK)

If this box is checked, the system will create single removal preparation area ROs.

  • Deposit mono prep. zone (field RPNPKZDPS)

If this box is checked, the system will create single repositioning preparation area ROs.

Validation

  • Operator code (field RPNOPE)

It is mandatory to enter the operator identification during the validations of the replenishment flows.

  • Pick control code (field PIKCTL)

A check will be carried out to ensure that both the system and the operator have performed the removal of the stock object from the right place.

  • Control code of deposit (field DPSCTL)

A check will be carried out to ensure that both the system and the operator have performed the repositioning of the stock object in the right place.

  • Validation type (field RPNVLD)

Specifies whether a validation operation is necessary when physical movements have been performed. In the affirmative, the validation is manual. Otherwise, the validation is automatic (entry of the operator code and location control key will not be requested, even if the boxes are checked).

Prints

  • Replenish list (field RPNLST)

The printing of the replenishment orders is triggered.

  • Replenish label (field RPNLBL)

Replenishment labels will be generated and printed for each movement.

Close

 

Tab Assembling

Presentation

This tab contains those parameters used within the framework of an assembling procedure.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Assembling orders

  • Unique reference (field BOMUNQREF)

Stipulates if the same reference of an Assembling Order (AO) may appear countless times in the AO portfolio (all statuses included), or only once (irrespective of the AO status), or several times (provided the others are validated or closed).

Prints

  • Transfer list (field BOMLST)

If it is checked, the printing of the transfer list is automatic upon creation of the assembling TO.

  • Transfer label (field BOMLBL)

If it is checked, the printing of the transfer label is automatic upon creation of the assembling TO.

  • Partials by product (field BOMSSHITM)

If it is checked, the printing of the Shortage by product is automatic upon creation of the assembling TO.

  • Shortage per PO (field BOMSSHORD)

If it is checked, the printing of the Shortage by AO is automatic upon creation of the assembling TO.

Waves

  • Available stock (field BOMSTKAVL)

If it is checked, the search on output of the 1st-phase transfer is carried in priority on the assembling locations.

  • Picking stock (field BOMSTKPIC)

If it is checked, the search on output of the 1st phase transfer will also be carried in the picking locations.
If it is not checked, the search on output will only be carried in the reserve locations.

  • Transfer incomplete (field BOMTRFIPA)

If it is checked, only the strictly necesssary qty is transferred even if an incomplete container has to be created in stock to that end.
If it is not checked, the component objects are carried out without stock objects being made incomplete. It is thus possible to transfer a quantity larger than the requested quantity;

TO setting up

  • Pick mono prep. zone (field BOMPKZPIK)

If it is checked, the transfer orders are regrouped by removal preparation area linked to the store.

  • Deposit mono prep. zone (field BOMPKZDPS)

If it is checked, the transfer orders are regrouped by repositioning preparation area linked to the store.

  • Dividing of load (field BOMWKL)

If it is checked, this means that the assembling TOs are going to be split in order to comply with the load limitations set for the preparation area.
The load calculation will always be performed on the removal preparation area. In the case of removal preparation multi-area TOs, it is mandatory to specify the preparation area to be considered for the calculation in the "Prepa Area" field.

Stipulates the preparation area to be used for the load splitting in the the case of multiple removal preparation area TOs.

Assembly

  • field W1

 

  • Validation type (field CPNVLD)

If it is checked, the validation of the 1st phase transfer will be automatic.

  • field W2

 

  • Operator code (field DCLOPE)

If it is checked, the entry of an operator code wil be requested upon kit declaration.

Disassembly

  • field W3

 

  • Validation type (field KITVLD)

If it is checked, the validation of the 1st phase transfer will be automatic.

  • field W4

 

  • Operator code (field LCDOPE)

If it is checked, the entry of an operator code wil be requested upon kit declaration.

Tab Quality Control

Presentation

This tab contains those parameters used within the framework of a quality control procedure.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Quality control

Stock nature to be used to update those stock objects qualified as being non-complying during quality control. The quality-related adjustment is carried out upon validation of the Analysis Request.

Used to configure the stock nature to be used for the stock quantities consumed during the quality control: this stock nature makes it possible to identify and count the stock consumed upon validation of the quality control.

  • Operator code (field QLYOPE)

When the parmeter is set to yes, the entry of an operator code is requested to save the entry of the quality control.

Analysis application validation

  • Automatic addressing (field ALLQLYAUT)

When the flag is triggered, the controlled automatic stock addressing is carried out upon validation/closing of an Analysis Request: the transfers from the quality store to the stock are created automatically.

  • Operator code (field VQLOPE)

When the flag is activated, the entry of an operator code is requested in order to validate an Analysis Request.

Report

  • Quality record (field PRNAUT)

Downgraded: Search for empty non-reserved locations.

Store
Optimum: Search of locations in the priority store defined above in the stock configuration for the pivot picking.
Downgraded: Use of the Store Sequence table.

ABC class.
Optimum: Search for locations having an ABC class identical to the one allocated to the product.
