Issuing Items from the Warehouse

Stock Items can be issued from the warehouse in two ways: Directly or Indirectly. In the direct method, a user physically goes to the warehouse to get the item, and an Over-the-Counter (OC) transaction is used to record the request and issuing of goods all in one step. In the indirect method, the user does not go to the warehouse, but instead requests an item from a remote location. In this case a Stock Requisition transaction (SRQ) is used. The warehouse manager can then create pick tickets to have items bundled and sent to the requestor. The Stock Issue Confirmation (CI) transaction records the issue of those goods and posts the accounting elements based on the purchasing method specified on the stock requisition transaction.

Stock Items can be issued from the Warehouse indirectly by using the following transactions:

Stock Requisition (SRQ) transaction
Stock Requisition for External Customers (SRQE) transaction
Pick and Issue (PI) transaction
Stock Issue Confirmation (CI) transaction
Stock Issue Confirmation for External Customers (CIE) transaction

The Inventory Receivable Generation Chain Job creates Receivable for Inventory (REI) transactions. The REI transactions reference Stock Issue Confirmation for External Customers (CIE) transactions. REI transactions update the External Stock Return Issue Cross Reference (SNCIXREF) table.
