PART WAREHOUSES

This subtask is available only if you selected the ABC Classification by Warehouse check box on the Configure Inventory Settings screen in Inventory. This subtask is disabled if you do not select the ABC Classification by Warehouse check box. In that case, part-level ABC classification applies.

Use this subtask to view and modify information found in the Part Warehouses table. The fields in this subtask are used to establish warehouse specific ABC classifications for the part on the main screen. Existing part level values for ABC Code, Count Frequency, and Count Tolerance still remain, but must not be used.

Initially, this subtask displays classification rows associated with the part on the main screen for all warehouses for your selected company.

Table Window

Warehouse

Enter or click to select, the warehouse for which you wish to assign a classification code for this part. This field displays the Warehouse for the part/warehouse ABC classification. You can modify this field only when creating new rows.

ABC Code

Enter, or click to select, the ABC classification code that best categorizes this part for this warehouse. The ABC code is the classification of a group of items in decreasing order of annual amount volume or other criteria. This code can be calculated on the Update ABC Classifications screen in Inventory and can be overridden in this field. The ABC classification code entered in this field automatically calculates the Count Tolerance and the Count Frequency. If a warehouse is already entered, this defaults in the corresponding Count Frequency and Count Tolerance for the warehouse/ABC code combination.

Select this check box to lock in the ABC code for this part/warehouse.

Count Frequency

Do Not Overwrite Count Frequency

Count Tolerance

Enter the count tolerance percentage allowed for this part/warehouse/ABC code. Count tolerance is the percentage that is acceptable between physical count quantity and system pre-count quantity. A percentage automatically displays based on the Warehouse and ABC Code selected. The value in this field affects the appropriate count quantities in the table window of the Manage Actual Counts screen in Inventory.
