Approve Counting Result on Count Report
Explanation
Use this function to approve the counting results that have previously been rejected.
If a line is approved, the quantities will be updated with the result from the
counting.
Prerequisites
- There must be a counting report with lines that have been rejected.
- A defined approval structure does not exist for approving counting
results. You will be able to proceed with the approval process if relevant
authorization exists.
System Effects
- The results that are approved update the quantity on-hand for the part. The inventory
transaction is created.
- For parts with a Company-Owned ownership type, if the counting difference is negative, postings are created for the credit
posting type M1 (Inventory) and the debit posting type M184 (Negative Counting Difference).
- For parts with a Company-Owned ownership type, if the counting difference is positive, postings are created for the credit
posting type M7 (Positive Counting Difference) and the debit posting type
M1 (Inventory).
Note:
- You cannot carry out counting in the project inventory for a closed project activity, as it is not possible to increase the counting quantity for such a location. Instead, a positive counting difference should be added to a standard inventory location, or to another project inventory location where the activity has not already been closed.
- Click
Approve command in order to approve the part. To approve all lines
that are not already approved or canceled, click
Approve All Rejected Lines command.
- If
the count result has been altered before approving and the part is
serial tracked at receipt and issue but not serial tracked in inventory,
a dialog box will appear automatically. If the altered counting
difference is positive, then enter the new serial number(s). If the
counting difference is negative, then select the missing serial
number(s) using the list of values.
