Process parameter dependency for receipt of restricted parts

Restricted parts

Allocation of received parts to material requests

On confirmation of binning of parts, the system allocates received parts to material requests by generating stock issues for received parts. This is generally known as pegging of receipts to material requests, which is influenced by the process parameter Prioritization of MR for Receipt Pegging. This process parameter is defined under the category Stock Demand Management in the Set Inventory Process Parameters activity of the Logistics Common Master.

The following content illustrates the pegging mechanism as impacted by the definition of Prioritization of MR for Receipt Pegging.

If Prioritization of MR for Receipt Pegging is set as ‘1’ (All MR), the received parts are allocated to the available unsatisfied/pending material requests on the basis of MR priority. Any remainder of the quantity of the received part is transferred to stock. The entire received part quantity is put to stock, if no unsatisfied material requests are found.
If Prioritization of MR for Receipt Pegging is set as ‘2’ (Originating MR followed by MR without PR), the received parts are allocated to the pending material requests incorporated into purchase order and purchase request covered by the goods receipt. Any leftover quantity is apportioned to unsatisfied material requests found without purchase request antecedents on the basis of MR priority.
If Prioritization of MR for Receipt Pegging is set as ‘3’ (Originating MR followed by all other MR), the received parts are allocated to the pending material requests incorporated into purchase order and purchase request covered by the goods receipt. Any leftover quantity is apportioned to unsatisfied material requests on the basis of MR priority.

Valuation of Customer Core part in Top Assy / Sub Assy Exchange

If the Return Part # has reference to a SWO / Customer Order, if SWO / CO has additional reference to an exchange order and the Exchange Entity is "Top Assembly", then the part is valued based on the parameter "Core Part Valuation for Top-Assy Exchange" defined in the “Set Inventory Process Parameters” activity of the “Logistics Common Master” business component, as shown in the table.

Note: If the Exchange Entity is "Sub Assembly", the part is valued based on the parameter "Core Part Valuation for Sub-Assy Exchange" in the “Set Inventory Process Parameters” activity as shown in the table.

Finance book entries

On confirmation, entries for receipts are posted in the finance book associated with the warehouse/organization unit. For a group company, entries are posted to relevant finance book in the group company.

Prerequisite for moving parts owned by Group Company

If stock valuation is mandatory for a group company, the base currency/exchange rate for conversion between base currency and other currencies must be established in the group company to enable cost-related computations.

Rotation of Asset ID/Tag

On binning of a ‘Capital’ part procured through an Exchange/PBH - Exchange purchase order, the asset ID/tag of the issued part is shifted to the received part. However, this occurs only if the login OU is linked to the Maintenance Asset Tracker.

Automatic generation of stock issues for received parts

Status of General/Maintenance stock issues: If the parameter “Confirmation of General Issue generated during Receipt pegging to an Open MR”/”Confirmation of Maintenance Issue generated during Receipt pegging to an Open MR” under the category “Process Automation” in the Set Warehouse Process Parameters activity of the Storage Administration is ‘1’, the status of General/Maintenance stock issues automatically generated for the goods receipt will be ‘Confirmed’. However, parameter “Confirmation of General Issue generated during Receipt pegging to an Open MR”/”Confirmation of Maintenance Issue generated during Receipt pegging to an Open MR” is ‘0’ the status of the stock issue is set as ‘Fresh’.

Automatic generation of MMD for stock issues

The system automatically generates the MMD reports for ‘Confirmed’ General/Maintenance stock transfer issues, if the parameter “Print MMD for Maintenance Issue generated in Confirmed status during Receipt pegging to and open MR”/ “Print MMD for Maintenance Issue generated in Confirmed status during Receipt pegging to and open MR” under the category “Stock Management Report” in the Set Warehouse Process Parameters is ‘1’.

To generate reports

Select the “Generate Bar Code Label” link at the bottom of the page to generate bar code labels for received parts.
Select the “Generate MMD Report” link to generate MMD report for the receipt.

Note: The MMD report is generated only for parts for which Movement / Binning process has already been initiated.

To record additional information

Select the “Record Hazmat Compliance” link at the bottom of the page to record the Compliance details for Hazmat parts in the document.
Select the “Maintain External Stock Allocation” link at the bottom of the page to maintain external stock allocation details.
