This message is a general message that is displayed in Inventory Handling if all locations/AVL's for a part are flagged in a Cycle Count or Physical Inventory and the part has ONLY one WHSE and AVL setup. 

User must reconcile and post the cycle count or physical inventory for this part and then you will be able to process the records within Inventory Handling.  

 

 

If the part has more than one WHSE and/or AVL setup and the part number is flagged in a Cycle Count or Physical Inventory the warning is NOT displayed,  but the warehouse drop down is not avaiable for selection within the issuing, receiving, transferring, and MRB screens after you select the AVL.   As shown in the screen below.  




The completed screen will appear as follows:



Once the preceding steps have been completed, the user may Add to PO DMR (Discrepant Material Return) module,

Once the DMR (discrepant material return) has been added and saved, a Debit Memo will be created in the Accounting System.  Additionally, the corresponding entry will be created and the balance in the Accounts Payable Aging will adjust.
