Advantage Inventory comes with two Stock Issue Confirmation documents:
Standard Stock Issue Confirmation (CI)
Stock Issue Confirmation for External Customers (CIE)
The Stock Issue Confirmation (CI) and Stock Issue Confirmation for External Customers (CIE) documents allow you to record the number of goods issued to the requestor. The CI and CIE documents confirm that previously reserved and released items have been issued from the warehouse to the requestor.
The Stock Issue Confirmation (CI) document has a Header section and two detail sections: Commodity and Accounting. Every CI document must have at least one Commodity Line and each Commodity Line must have at least one Accounting Line.
The Stock Issue Confirmation for External Customers (CIE) document has a Header section and three detail sections: Vendor, Commodity and Accounting. Every CIE document must have one Vendor Line, at least one Commodity Line and each Commodity Line must have at least one Accounting Line.
The CI/CIE documents require the same Requestor, Delivery, Commodity and Accounting information found on the referenced Stock Requisition document; only a few fields can differ between the Stock Requisition and Stock Issue Confirmation documents. The Issued Quantity of the CI/CIE can be less than the Requested Quantity of the SRQ/SRQE, in cases where stock items have been backordered. The Issued Quantity of the CI/CIE can also be greater than the SRQ/SRQE Requested Quantity, but an overridable error is issued. Note: The Issued Quantity on an Issue Confirmation (CIE) document cannot be modified below the Closed Invoiced Qty. In order to reduce the Issued Quantity on a CIE, the Receivable (REI) referencing the Issue Confirmation (CIE) must be modified first. Additionally, the Unit Price on the CI/CIE can be different than the Unit Price on the Inventory Management table and the referenced SRQ/SRQE; however, an overridable error is issued when it differs from the Inventory Management value. The CI/CIE document cannot be processed for a stock item which is not active or which has been marked for “Physical Inventory count” on the Inventory table.
Submission of a CIE document may result in the generation of a new or modification Receivable (REI) document by the Inventory Receivable Generation Chain Job. The Inventory Receivable Generation Chain Job will create only one Receivable for each Issue Confirmation. Modification to an Issue Confirmation (CIE) may result in the generation of a modification Receivable (REI).
Prior to creating a CI document, there are some tables must be setup in the application. For details of the setup, go to Stock Issue Confirmation Document Setup.
