Moving Vendor Consignment Inventory

Using Product Location Maintenance, you can move consignment inventory you are storing for a vendor to a different location in your warehouse. You must be assigned the PRD.LOCATION.MAINT authorization key at level 2 or higher to move products using Product Location Maintenance.

To move vendor consignment inventory:

From the Whse Mgt menu, select Product Location Maintenance to display the Product Location Maintenance screen.
Display all the locations for a product.

Vendor consignment locations are indicated by the vendor name and the location type C in the Tag ID field.

In the On-Hand field of the location from which you are moving inventory, decrease the quantity by the number of items you are moving.
Select the location to which you want to move the on-hand quantity.

If you select a location to increase that is also a vendor consignment location tagged to the same vendor, the system increases the on-hand quantity by the quantity you subtracted from the first location.
If you selected a location to increase that is either not a vendor consignment location or that is a vendor-consigned location tagged to a different vendor, the system creates a new location line with the difference in quantity. The system keeps the vendor tagged to the original location and only changes the actual location number to the one you selected to increase.
If you want to move the inventory to a new location not available on the Product Location Maintenance screen for the product, you can move the consigned inventory to a blank line on the screen. The system copies all the location information from the original location, except the actual location number. Enter the location number for the new location.

Press Esc to save your changes and exit the screen.
