| # Adjustment Order Lines (whinh5121m000) Use this session to view, create, or maintain inventory adjustment order lines. Note To view the peg distribution data, use the Peg Distribution option from the References menu. This option is enabled only if the project pegging functionality is implemented and for the warehouse of type Project. To process one or more specific inventory adjustment order lines, select the concerned inventory adjustment order lines, and from the appropriate menu, choose Process. Note If an inventory adjustment order line concerns: A serialized item, see To maintain serial numbers for inventory adjustment order lines for further information on how to maintain serial numbers for serialized items for the low volume scenario and the high volume scenario. Inventory ownership If the vendor managed inventory (VMI) functionality is used, you can view and maintain inventory ownership records in the Adjustment Order Line Ownership (whinh5125m000) session. An inventory ownership record specifies the owner or owners of the items that comprise the variance entered on the adjustment order line. Inventory ownership records are either generated or manually created, this depends on the ownership settings of the warehouse and the items for which the variance occurs. For further details, see Adjustment Order Line Ownership (whinh5125m000) and Ownership records. To start the Adjustment Order Line Ownership (whinh5125m000) session, click Ownership in the appropriate menu.

A warehouse can be divided into locations to manage the available space, and to locate the stored goods. Storage conditions and blocks can be applied to individual locations. Lot A number of items produced and stored together that are identified by a (lot) code. Lots identify goods. Inventory Date The date assigned to the item when the item was stored. If the item has a particular shelf life, the inventory date is the product expiry date defined for the item. Default value If the value of the Outbound Method field in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session is one of the following, the default inventory date is the current date: LIFO FIFO If the value of the Outbound Method field in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session is By Location, no inventory date is specified. Storage Unit The unit in which the quantity of goods stored is expressed. Example Storage unit: box Inventory unit: liter Package Definition A particular configuration of items and their packaging. A package definition for an item can, for example, be the following: a pallet contains 12 boxes and each box contains 4 pieces. Quantity Storage Unit The unit in which the quantity of goods stored is expressed. Example Storage unit: box Inventory unit: liter Stockpoint Inventory (Storage Unit) The quantity present at the stockpoint, expressed in the storage unit. Actual Inventory (Storage Unit) The actual quantity at the stockpoint, expressed in the storage unit. If the item is serialized and the Serials in Inventory check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session is selected, you cannot enter the actual inventory in the current field. To specify the actual inventory, click Serials. The Cycle Counting Order Line Lots and Serials (whinh5106m000) session is started, in which you can register the serial numbers, and specify whether the serial numbers are actually in inventory. Variance (Storage Unit) The difference between the quantity registered in ERP Enterprise and the actual quantity at the stockpoint, expressed in storage unit. Inventory Unit The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. Stockpoint Inventory (Inventory Unit) The quantity present at the stockpoint, expressed in the inventory unit. Actual Inventory (Inventory Unit) The actual quantity for the stockpoint, expressed in the inventory unit. Variance (Inventory Unit) The difference between the quantity as registered in ERP Enterprise and the actual quantity at the stockpoint, expressed in the inventory unit. Adjustment Reason for Adjustment The code of the reason for the inventory adjustment. Adjustment Date The date on which the inventory adjustment order line is created. Status Lots and Serials Unbalanced If this check box is selected, the variance for the current adjustment order line differs from the aggregated variance of the lot and/or serialized items in the Adjustment Order Line Lots and Serials (whinh5126m000) session . For example, this check box is selected if the variance for the current order line is 6, and the total variance for the serial numbers listed in the Adjustment Order Line Lots and Serials (whinh5126m000) session is 4. Note that this applies only to serialized items in the low volume scenario. Maintaining serial numbers for inventory adjustments is not mandatory for serialized items in the high volume scenario, in which serial numbers are not maintained in inventory.

Related topics Inventory ownership in Warehouse Management Price Price Use Adjustment Price If this check box is selected, ERP Enterprise uses the Adjustment Price, as specified in the current session, for the financial transactions related to the adjustment-order line. You can only specify or modify the adjustment price if the current check box is selected. The current check box is only available if both of the following conditions apply: The adjustment-order line concerns a positive variance. The item's inventory-valuation method is not Fixed Transfer Price (FTP). You can view the item's inventory-valuation method in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session. Adjustment Price The new price for each item. Default value ERP Enterprise retrieves the default adjustment price as follows: If the item is not a project item, the default adjustment price is the fixed transfer price. ERP Enterprise retrieves the fixed transfer price from the Cost Price Calculation module in Manufacturing. If the item is a project item, ERP Enterprise retrieves the default adjustment price from Project. You can only specify or modify the adjustment price if the Use Adjustment Price check box in the current session is selected. If the Use Adjustment Price check box is cleared, no adjustment price is specified in the current field. Inventory Unit The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. Adjustment Price The currency in which the adjustment price is expressed. Adjustment Amount The adjustment price times the variance, expressed in the inventory unit. Adjustment Amount The currency in which the adjustment amount is expressed. Inventory Value The impact (estimated) of the adjustment in the inventory on the inventory value expressed per unit.
    inventory value = valuation amount/ variance quantity
Note The valuation price is displayed, only if the Use Adjustment Price check box is cleared. Transaction Amount The impact (estimated) of the adjustment on the inventory value. Note In case of positive adjustments the transaction amount includes receipt surcharges (if applicable). This value is calculated during order entry with an estimated value and is updated when the actual transaction amount is processed. The actual transaction amount differs from the estimated transaction amount in the following situations: In case of negative adjustment orders, a difference occurs if the inventory value changes between the moment of order entry and the moment of actual processing. In case of positive adjustment, a difference can occur when positive adjustment is valuated against inventory value (setting in Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000)) and the inventory valuation method is MAUC (by valuation group). This as the MAUC (by valuation group) can change between the moment of order entry and actual processing of the order.

Related topics Demand pegging overview Business Object Type The type of order to which the inventory was allocated, such as, Sales Order, or Service Order. Note The following fields are always used in combination; together, they identify the relevant order or order line: Business Object Business Object Business Object Reference Allowed values Allocated to Business Object Type Related topics Demand pegging overview Business Object The order, or order line, to which the inventory was allocated. Note The following fields are always used in combination; together, they identify the relevant order or order line: Business Object Business Object Business Object Reference Related topics Demand pegging overview Reference A reference code to which the inventory was allocated. ERP Enterprise can use the inventory specified by this record to fulfill a demand specified by this reference and for no other purpose. ERP Enterprise can use this field in two ways: If the Business Partner field is filled, ERP Enterprise uses the Reference field to record a reference code defined by a customer. If the Business Partner field is empty, ERP Enterprise uses the Reference field to record an internal reference. You can use a reference code to keep a collection of parts linked together, even if they follow different routings, for example, if some of the parts are transported to a subcontractor to be returned later. Related topics Demand pegging overview Derived from Product Variant A unique configuration of a configurable item. The variant results from the configuration process and includes information such as feature options, components, and operations. Example Configurable item: electric drill Options: 3 power sources (batteries, 12 V or 220 V) 2 colors (blue, gray). A total of 6 product variants can be produced with these options. Related topics Product variants in Warehousing Product Variant The description or name of the code. Related topics Product variants in Warehousing Option List ID The identification of the options and features for a configured item. The ID is used in the item specification to match supply and demand. The ASN specifications include the option list ID. The ASN specifications are populated from the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session. In turn, the specifications on the inbound order line are populated from the purchase schedule line. For configurable purchased items in Warehousing, only the option list ID is part of the specifications. This means that inventory is maintained per option list ID and is the total of inventory of all product variants with the same option list ID. Note The field is displayed only if the Assembly Control (ASC) check box is selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
