Receiving Products into Multiple Locations in a Manual Warehouse

When receiving items into your warehouse from a purchase order, transfer order, or work order, you can receive the items into several locations in your warehouse. Use split locations when you have more stock than can fit in one area in your warehouse.

For example, you order five boxes of notebook paper because your vendor is running a special. Your primary location is big enough to store only two boxes at a time. Identify a secondary location that can hold the remaining three boxes.

This topic provides instructions about receiving products into multiple locations from the following order types:

Purchase and transfer orders.
Work orders.

To receive products on a purchase or transfer order into multiple warehouse locations:

From the Purch menu, select Stock Receipt Entry to display the Purchase Order Entry Body screen.
In the Ship From field, enter the purchase order or transfer order number to display the order you want to receive.
Place the cursor on the line item you are receiving.
Use the Sched hot key to display the Schedule screen.
Place the cursor on the line item that has the Ship-Qty or Recv-Qty for which you want to record a new location.
Use the Split Locations hot key to display the Split Locations screen.

In the Typ field, indicate the stock type you are receiving. Press F10 and select one of the following:

Type	Description
S	Stock
F	Defective
R	Review
O	Overship
L	Display

In the Location field, enter the primary location for the product.

You can enter locations other than the primary location for the product, such as secondary and floating locations. Press F10 to select a location defined for the product. If the Display All Locations In Split Locations control maintenance record is set to No, the list for the Location field displays only those locations that have an on-hand quantity greater than zero. If it is set to Yes, the list displays all locations defined for the product, regardless of their on-hand quantity.

To view the warehouse locations where quantities of the product are stored, use the Location Maint hot key to display the Product Location Maintenance screen.

Note: If the Allow Blank Locations In Split Location control maintenance record is set to Yes, you are not required to enter a location in the Location field. If the RF Put Away Method control maintenance record is set to Most Recent Put Away Location for the branch at which you are receiving, the Location field defaults to the last location in which you received this product.

In the Qty field, enter the number of items you want to store in the primary location.
Repeat steps 6 through 8 to record additional locations for the items and the amount you want to store in each location.
Press Esc to save the location and to return to the Schedule screen.
