My understanding is the Part Availability Controls are used to control the following actions related to a a specific part in a specific location:
If the part in that location cannot be manually or automatically reserved and issued, is the part even visible in stock for the location? Or is the part “hidden”?

Hi
Within the availability control setup the part supply control determines whether the parts are available and plannable. The values are:
Nettable - The parts are available and plannable.
Not Nettable - The parts are not plannable or available in the availability check, order proposal, and MRP.
In the screenshot with LOSTANDFOUND availability control part are not allow reservations nor issue but the parts do show up as available in inventory because the part supply control set to nettable.
In the screenshot with QUARANTINE availability control parts are not allow reservations nor issue and the part do not show up as available because the part supply control is set to not nettable.

Some uses of the Availability Control are to prevent doing things with the part without doing the extra step. The item could still be reserved for example after removing the availability control, but ideally the processes in place and the training for the users makes them understand whether they should or shouldn’t be removing the control at that point in time. Conversely, without an availability control, the assumption should be the that the part is open for use to whatever demand requires it.
We do not want parts auto-reserved or issued from our Truck Locations when creating a picklist from our work order. So I created avail ID NO_AUTO_RESERVE and made it the default part avail for those Locations. Setup as follows, but it did not work (The picklist still pulled from this ‘Truck Location’) Is there in incorrect option on here?
No Auto Reserve, Nettable, Not Auto Reservation, Manual Reservation, Order Issue, Non-Order Issue
