Project Picking when Part is on a Frozen Stock Count

We’ve noticed the following scenario. (IFS APPS 9)

Part A exists as Project Miscellaneous Demand on an Activity, Qty 1.

A Count Report is subsequently created for Part A, and the count is frozen. (10 in stock - TOTAL)

Part A on the activity is subsequently reserved, and a project pick list is created. The picker picks 1.

The stock checker now goes to count the part, and counts 9.

Once the count is unfrozen, the 1 on the activity is issued and the QOH goes down to 8. 

Result - we’ve written 1off incorrectly.

 

Other than manual controls, is there any way in IFS to improve this process?

TIA. Chris.

You could have cancelled the count report and re-created a new ones with Exclude Project Inventory check ON. By this you can separate the counting process for Standard and project inventory individually.

Hi Karthik,

We tried this option in IFS. In the count reports created, the count report lines of the parts relevant for the project reserved inventory were completely excluded, not just the quantity under project inventory. Is this correct? e.g. The Part A of the above example is not shown in the Count Report at all. 

Thanks,
Asela
