Rejection Info Subtask

Use the Rejection Info subtask to record multiple rejection quantities, reason, and disposition codes for a single receipt.

The Rejected Qty (PO U/M) and Rejected Qty (Inventory U/M) fields in the main screen table window are non-modifiable. Rather, these fields display the sum of rejection line quantities from this subtask.

For a given inspection line, you can create multiple rejection lines by entering two disposition codes. The Disposition code describes the status of the rejected items themselves. You can assign disposition codes to a rejected material in a number of ways. You have to assign a disposition code to a rejected material immediately, but if you do not assign a disposition code to inventory parts, you must move them to an on-hold or reinspection location. You can assign them disposition codes later by modifying the QC inspection transaction. No matter what the disposition, all rejections are included for vendor/part quantity computations. The valid dispositions are in the following field descriptions.

The Order/Pmt Disposition code describes how the purchase order and any payables are handled. You can enter the order/payment disposition to specify how the rejection affects the PO line and any vendor payables. Valid payment dispositions are in the following field descriptions.

Use this subtask whenever an inspection rejection needs to be recorded.

Table Window

Field Description
Rejected Qty (PO U/M)

Enter the quantity rejected, in the purchase order unit of measure for this rejection line.

Rejection Reason

Enter the reason code for this rejection. You can maintain these codes on the Manage Vendor Rejection Reasons screen. A reason code may or may not be required, depending on whether or not the Require Reason Codes for Rejections check box is selected on the Configure Receiving Settings screen.

Disposition
Use this drop-down list to select the disposition status code for this rejection line, or leave it blank to modify later. The valid disposition codes are:
  • Return to vendor: The rejected items are sent back to the vendor (typically for repair or replacement). Inventory parts are removed from inventory.
  • Hold: On hold. The rejected items are placed in a separate hold area. A rejection location with location type H is required for inventory parts.
  • Scrap: The rejected items are disposed on-site. Inventory parts are removed from inventory.
  • Use-as-is: The rejected items are used, despite their rejection. Inventory parts remain in inventory. You must specify a rejection location, but it does not need to be a hold location.
  • Rework: The rejected items are repaired/modified on-site to correct the problem. Inventory parts remain in inventory. You must specify a rejection location, but it does not need to be a hold location
Order/Pmt Disposition
Use this drop-down list to select the order/payment disposition status code for this rejection line. Valid options are:
  • Credit Due: The vendor will credit the amount owed for the rejected amount. This amount is not considered an open quantity or amount for commitment purposes. The order quantity of the purchase order line is lowered by this rejected quantity or amount for determining whether the PO lines is open or system closed.
  • Repair/Replace: The vendor will repair or replace the item. The purchase order line is considered open, pending eventual receipt of the replacement item.
  • Pay Anyway: The company pays for the items anyway. It is considered accepted for invoice matching and commitment purposes, but is still considered a rejection for vendor performance reasons.

The Repair/Replace defaults when you create a new rejection line.

Location

Enter the location where the rejected items for this purchase order line receipt were placed. This field is required if the rejected item is an inventory part and the Disposition code is blank, Rework, Use-as-is, or Hold. This field defaults from the Rejection Location field on the main screen.

Scrap Reason

For items with a Disposition code of Scrap, click to select the scrap reason code. This field is optional. Maintain these values on the Manage Scrap Reasons screen in Inventory.

Rejected Qty (Inventory U/M)

Enter the quantity rejected, in inventory unit of measure, and the PO U/M will be calculated.
