Is there any possibility to have issue inventory as entry and another process for approve it and update stock?

currently there is only one screen to issue inventory and update immediately the stock quantity.

Thank you

Hi ​@bldrayi ,

I don’t think this is possible in Issue Inventory Part window. But you could try with Material Requisition window and add there an Approval Template by default. Then, apply a custom event to raise an error so then user cannot process it until the approval is completely finished.

Hi ​@bldrayi,

 

If you are not willing to go for a customisation then I suggest you to use the Material Requisition window.

 

Allow the user to process it up until Reserved state. (So the material are blocked now)

 

Afterwards, the Approving user can trigger the Issue. Then the material will be issued and so will the stocks be updated.

This RMB option “Issue” you can set as only visible to a specific set of Approving users. (IFSAPP10 technical person could do it) 

 

Another (un)common option is to use the Count Reports. You can enter a new count to the inventory part, reducing the Issued amount. Then allow only the Approving users have access to Count Results windows to approve it, you can set it up using permission sets.

This way, your stocks will get updated deducting the Issued (missing as per counting) amount. The downfall is, this is not tracked as an “Issue” and too many steps needed to be carried out.


Ok Thank you. what is about receive inventory window? can we add also 2 steps for entry and approval using IFS10

Same, not possible in the standard window. Unless you do a customisation.

If you are using this for inventory adjustments, you may use Count Per Inventory Part window. Prior using this window, you need to set Couting difference to site level as “0”. Whenever there is a difference positive or negative, it will require an approval to adjust the stock. Approval can be peformed using Count Result per Inventory Part window.
