Trace Inventory Part Usage

Explanation

Use this page to trace the usage of a part. Part usage could be, for example, the shipment of a customer order or even manual issues. The information displayed is inventory transactions. In the upper part of the page, you can search for a part and for a combination of a site, a lot/batch number, a serial number, condition code, or a waiver deviation rejection number.

In the tree navigator, a graphical tree structure displays the usage of the part. You can only see one level in the tree structure at a time. If the part that is traced is a parent part that uses other components in its product structure, details of the usage of the component part are displayed at the next level in the tree structure. If the part that should be traced is a component part, details of the usage of the parent part are displayed at the next level in the tree structure. However, this also requires that the part is connected to a purchase order, a shop order, or a production schedule. Otherwise, there will be one level in the tree structure.

For a complete view of all levels in the tree structure, go to Part Usage tab.On this tab you can see all inventory transactions connected to the specifications entered in the header. For instance, if the transaction displayed is a customer order, issues and un-issues for that specific order are displayed.
