Scrap from Stock
Explanation
Scrapping is normally done when a part has become obsolete or faulty or its expiration date has been reached or
exceeded. To scrap individual parts, indicate the desired quantity. It is also possible to scrap a handling unit
and its content. When scrapping a handling unit all the content of the handling unit is scrapped meaning all the
parts and quantities that are packed in to the handing unit. For parts with availability check, the system will
also check if the scrapping will affect existing orders.
You can scrap parts from Scrap Inventory Part page or using Scrap Handling Unit
dialog reached from the Handling Unit or Handling Units in Stock pages.
Enable the Print Serviceability Tag option to order and print the serviceability tag report for the
scrapped part. Note: If the value of the PRNT_SERVICE_TAG_ACS object property in System
Definition/Object Property is set to TRUE, by default this option will be enabled.
Prerequisites
- The part cannot be locked for counting.
- A standard cost must have been specified for the part (unless there is an override cost in the inventory part
register).
- The part cannot be a blow-through or a phantom part (planning method T, O, or K).
- The current location cannot be an inspection location.
- The inventory location type must be picking, floor stock, or production line.
- The scrapping cause must have been entered in Scrapping Causes.
- The parts cannot be reserved.
- The ownership type of the parts cannot be Supplier Loaned.
- When scrapping a handling unit the same prerequisits mentioned above apply for all the parts and quantities
that make up the content of the handling unit.
System Effects
- An inventory part is scrapped from stock and the number in the Total Quantity Available column decreases.
Note: Serial-handled parts should be scrapped with extra care since the same serial number cannot be
received again once scrapped.
- If the Print Serviceability Tag option is enabled, the serviceability tag is printed for the scrapped
part. The serviceability tag is ordered in the Scrapped serviceability status. Serviceability tag refers
to the tag used in the Aviation industry to clearly identify an uninstalled component or assembly and its current
status.
