Hello,

 

We’re looking for advice on how to handle on hold material. We are currently using availability controls as a way to designate if product can be used in shop orders or shipped, but it is not meeting all of our needs.

 

We watched the quality demo webcasts which were great about showing all of the testing that can be done, but it doesn't show anything about what happens once a product fails the test.

 

In addition, we would like to have a lot more traceability when it comes to holds/releases. We are in the food and beverage industry so having an audit trail is very important and we don’t have a good one right now.

 

Any helpful info or best practices are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Have you evaluated using the Material Review Board (MRB) functionality? This can be used both for WIP on the shop order, purchase receipts and parts in stock. Parts brought to the MRB case will be held until the MRB case has been dispositioned and completed.

Thanks, Bjorn!

Is there anywhere I could see a demo of this process and how it works?

@mfrejik: In addition to the MRB, there is another way to "logistically" control an inventory part in stock via the availability control ID:


In the basic data, the required species can be defined themselves and what else may/could be done with them logistically:
