Hi,

 

We use transport tasks to move reserved stock from the warehouse to the pre-production floor.
In our process, we reserve everything, for example all 10 needed units. But due to logistic issues, we cannot move all units at once. So we need to execute the tranport task in pieces.

We use WaDaCo.

 

We currently cannot do it in pieces in IFS. If we enter a lower quantity than assigned on the TT in WaDaCo, we get the error message “When moving reserved stock, the quantity on the the transport task line must equal the reserved quantity on the reservation, which is XX”

Problem here is that we need to manually follow up what’s the status of the transport task, as we or need to confirm it all in the beginning, or at the end. During the real life executing, IFS is not alligned with the real life situation.

Is there a solution for this, somewhere a setting perhaps? On site level, I only find “Move reserved stock” which is allowed.

Hi @Marc Johnson 

We use stock key references to do reservation and to move reserved stock as well. Simply the stock is uniquely reserved and moved the same. As you may be aware that the stock record key values are Site, Part No, Configuration ID, Location No, Lot Batch No, Serial No, Eng Chg Level, W/D/R No and Activity Seq.
So, my view is that if we can deviate from this unique identity, then we can support the required flow. Suppose, we have 50 units need to be reserved. But need to move in 10 unit slots. If we can identify 10 slots each using a key like W/D/R No then we can reserve all with this key identification. Simply 5 reservation records. Then we can create seperate transport tasks as requred and execute when necessary.

regards,

Piyal
