Handle Unused Parts

Explanation

Use this activity to handle parts reserved for a Work Task in a service location but not consumed for the job. From the Reserved Materials screen, using the Handle Unused Parts command, it is possible to unreserve the parts and move them to a desired location.

Parts reserved at a Service Location (received through a Direct Purchase Order or Direct Shipment Order process) can be moved using the following options:

• Move with Transport Task, where the part(s) will be unreserved and a Transport Task will be created, to move them to a central (non-remote) warehouse. It is possible to execute the transport task in the same action.
• Unreserve and move to user stock: Parts will be unreserved and moved to user connected remote location.

Prerequisites

• Parts must have been delivered to the service location and reserved for the Work Task.
• The Work Task Workflow Configuration applied must have the action Unreserve Materials enabled, or no workflow configuration applied to the Work Task.

System Effects

• Parts will be unreserved and stored either in the user connected remote location, or in central (non-remote) location.
