Flag selected items for inspection...
Following receipt, items can be routed to an inspection step prior to put-away. You can use the Items Maintenance screen to flag selected items for inspection. Or, indicate directly on the sales order which line items require inspection. Furthermore, all items received against sales returns are automatically sent through the inspection step before being allowed for put-away.
Move inventory to inspection location...
If items require inspection, the system will automatically generate an inspection advice when a receipt is closed, and move the inventory from the RECV (receiving) location to the INSP (inspection) location. Items in the INSP location cannot be picked or moved for accidental introduction into available inventory.
Record pass / fail information...
The inspection advice lists all the inspection items from the receipt. Simply select the item that is being inspected. Record the quantity that has passed and failed inspection for each line, and also select from a list of user-defined inventory codes to determine what actions will be taken following the close of the advice.
For items that pass inspection, the system will release the items for put-away. For items that fail inspection, the system provides three possible actions: adjust out of inventory, return to vendor, or reject. The 'adjust out' and 'reject' options are available when an inspection is performed for goods returned by a customer against an RMA.
Add notes...
Along with recording pass/fail information, you can add notes for each line that are archived in the inspection screen and can be printed on inspection reports.
Automatically generate related documents...
Once all the items have been inspected, GBMS closes the inspection advice and generates the related documents. Items that passed inspection are placed on a put-away advice. For items received against a purchase order that failed inspection, a vendor return is automatically issued, allowing the user to pick and ship goods back to the vendor. If items were received against a customer's RMA and flagged as 'reject,' the system creates a pick to ship the goods back to the customer.
