Unissue Part

Explanation

Use this activity to return to stock an inventory part that has not been used for a work task. You can unissue material as long as the work task is not in status Reported or Finished.

To unissue a part, select the material line and click Unissue. In the Unissue Material dialog, enter the quantity of the part to be returned to inventory.

Note: If the part ordered on the work task has a cost other than the standard inventory cost, unused stock should be returned to inventory through a return instead of a material unissue. This is to ensure that the costs on a work task are updated correctly. For an example, read more in the activity description for returning material.
