Hi Mikko, We still have an IFS case open with regard to the issue of automatic reservations combined with ‘identified serials’ on a location. If let's say 50 of 100 parts at location X are identified, and an automatic reservation is done by the system on that part. If the 50 ‘unidentified serials’ are reserved, the system gives an error in case of picking an identified serial. As an example, if the inventory parts in stock lines would look like the below, it would not be possible to pick SN: A2 in case a reservation is done on the ‘anonymous’ line (SN: *):1 x Part A SN: A11 x Part A SN: A22 x Part A SN: * Kind regards, Bart
Dear Mikko, Many thanks for your fast and thourough response! Making the parts ‘in inventory’ traced would indeed solve the above problem. However, we struggle with the disadvantages of this setting when relocating ‘in inventory’ traced parts (requires a seperate scanning transaction for each relocation (when not using handling units)). For now, if we encounter a counting difference, the best option seems to log all physical serial no's in an excel and compare it to the part serials administratively logged in stock. Based on the comparison we can determine which serial no's are missing. This is however far from ideal, where we strive to handle such count processes fully in IFS. Kind regards, Bart
