PART INVENTORY INQUIRY

Use this screen to specify a part number and/or other part attributes, and view current inventory, order, requisition reservation, and planning data for the selected part(s) and project(s). If multiple revisions are available for a part, the inquiry can display this information for all of them. You can either use Subquery to select parameters for the parts you want to review, or enter information in the search criteria fields and select one of the options to show how you want selections to match. In the latter case, use the Execute button on the toolbar to populate your table.

Use this screen whenever you need to review information about a given part.

Search Criteria

If you are not using Subquery, populate any field in this group box to view matching part/project information for that field, and click Execute. For example, if you populate the Desc field with C, select the Begins With option, and execute the query, all applicable inventory parts (i.e., inventory parts that are included in a purchase order, reservation, or other planning capacity) that have a description beginning with the letter "c" display in the table window.

Part

Enter, or use to select, a part ID. If you leave this field blank, Costpoint will not use part ID as a criterion for selecting inventory information to display.

Rev

If you entered a full part ID, the last revision assigned to the part ID automatically displays. However, you can enter, or use to select, another revision for this part ID. Or, leave it blank to view inventory information for all revisions of the selected part(s).

U/M

This field displays the inventory unit of measure for the selected part (if only one part was selected).

Make/Buy

From the drop-down list, select the Make or Buy status of the selected part. If you leave this field blank, Costpoint does not select parts by make/buy code.

Desc

To narrow your search by part descriptions, enter a description in this field, then select an option in the Part ID/Project Selection Criteria group box to specify how you want selections matched. Then click the Execute button on the toolbar.

If you entered a full part ID in the Part field, the description for that part automatically displays.

Planner

Enter, or use to select, the planner ID you wish to view inventory information for. If you specify a planner in this field, Costpoint checks the Planner Assignment value in Production Control Settings to determine how to select inventory rows.

Project

To limit the inquiry to inventory for a single project, enter, or use to select, the project ID. The project name automatically displays in the unlabeled field to the right of the project ID.

If you did not select the Exact Match selection criteria option, you can enter a partial project number value and have Costpoint return inventory for all project IDs that meet the selection criteria value.

Netting Group

To limit the inquiry to a single netting group, enter, or use to select, the netting group ID. Netting groups are groups of inventory projects that will be planned together.

Part ID/Project Selection Criteria

Use this group box to select how you want your selections to match the Part, Desc, or Project field:

Include Inventory From Other Companies

This check box appears if you did not select the Separate Items By Company check box in the Product Definition Corporate Settings subtask of the Product Definition Settings screen. (If you did select the Separate Items By Company check box, this check box is hidden.)

Select this check box to include inventory from other companies and projects in the inquiry's result set. When the system searches lower levels for inventory, order, requisition, requirement, and part/project information, lower-level rows also display from other companies.

If you do not select this check box, only those project IDs that are linked to your user ID and company display in the result set.

Suppress Zero Quantity Rows

Select this check box if you do not want to view parts that currently have zero quantities for all inventory, on-hand, on-req, reserved, and owed. If you do not select this check box, parts that have all zero quantities are not excluded from the query.
