Use this screen to relieve materials from inventory and charge them to a sales order. Material issues automatically create an inventory transaction, and decrement reserved inventory quantities for all inventory line items. The inventory transaction is posted to the general ledger through the Inventory journal.
You can also issue non-inventory line items through this screen. The Cost of Sales journal entries for non-inventory items are posted to the general ledger through the Sales Order journal, via either Post Invoices, or Post Component COGS Corrections. The associated costs for drop shipment, in-transit, recurring, and invoice-only items are derived from either a percentage of sales or from the established Sales Order Cost Types table. This table contains eight cost sources that can be prioritized: Cost Schedule/Percent of Sales, Item Last, Item Reference, Item Standard, Project/Item Last, Project/Item Standard, Project/Item Reference, and Purchase Order. You must sequence cost types before entering material issues in this screen.
You must record issue transactions for inventory, dropshipment, and in-transit items. You cannot edit inventory costs in this screen. Also, in order to track serial/lot information on a given sales order line, you must specify that the part requires sales order configuration tracking in the Basic Part Data or Maintain Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition. You must select either the Serial or the Lot check box or the inventory Serial/Lot flags to invoke tracking in this screen.
For drop shipment component issues, if the absolute value of the sum of issued quantities (not yet invoiced, for all components) is greater than or equal to the component line order quantity, the SO line is ready for invoicing. For inventory and in transit components, this is determined upon shipping.
If you enter components for a sales order line in the Enter Sales Order screen and set the Issue Components field to Y (Yes) for that line, the components of that line display, rather than the SO line item itself.
Record issue transactions as soon as the material has been pulled from inventory, drop shipped by the vendor, or passed in-transit. Sales orders must have an approved status before you can record an issue. When you have recorded the issue transaction, the system calculates the applicable cost of sales.
If the Auto-Assign field in the Transaction IDs subtask of the Warehouses screen in Costpoint Inventory is set to Y (Yes) for the Issue to Sales Order selection, leave this field blank; the system automatically assigns the next issue ID. If the Auto-Assign field is set to Y (Yes) and you manually assign an issue ID, the Last Inv Trans ID field in the Transaction IDs subtask of the Warehouses screen in Costpoint Inventory will not be updated. If the Auto-Assign field is set to N (No), you can manually enter an issue ID of up to 10 alphanumeric characters. You cannot enter a space as the first character.
The system date is the default for this field, but you can enter a new date.
Enter, or use to select, the material handler who is performing this transaction. A valid employee ID is required.

Enter, or use to select, the ID of the location from where the material is being issued. This is a required field for inventory line items. If you issue a positive quantity and the From Location is On Hold (for the warehouse ID in the Locations screen in Costpoint Inventory), the system displays a warning message if you attempt to save the record.
This non-editable field displays the inventory unit of measure for the item.
Enter the quantity to be issued in the inventory unit of measure. You can also leave this field blank and enter the issue quantity in the ordering unit of measure. If you enter information in the ordering unit of measure, the system, employing the unit of measure conversion table, will automatically calculate this field. The maximum issue quantity is 9,999,999,999.9999.
You can enter the issue quantity as a negative number, which is appropriate when an item is returned to the shelves as the result of a vendor return, over-issue, or issue error.
The system calculates the open quantity for the line item as the difference between the ordered quantity and the cumulative issued quantity. The open quantity is expressed in inventory unit of measure in this non-editable field.

For sales order items that require an issue transaction (line types "INT" and "DRP"), the items cost is determined by the sequence of the system costs in the Sales Order Cost Types screen. You can change the default costs in this field.
The system checks the Sales Order Cost Types table to determine the cost with the lowest sequence number. If a sequence number of zero has been assigned, the cost type is ignored. If the cost is not zero, it is loaded into the this field. If the cost type produces a unit cost equal to zero, the cost type with the next available sequence number is used. The system multiplies the SO Unit Cost by the Issue Qty (SO U/M) to determine an extended cost amount.
