Receiving Overshipments Using RF

When you receive overshipments, the system ties the purchase order (P/O) number and the item number together. It then sends a job queue through the message system to inform the P/O's originator of the increased quantity. Overstock product is not available for orders until the purchasing agent resolves the issue.

Use the Create New Generation For RF Recv Verify Overages control maintenance record to select how you want the system to handle overage amounts when receiving items using the RF Receive Verify process.

To receive overshipped quantities using RF:

From the Warehouse Management > RF Applications > RF Main Menu, select Recv Verify to display the Recv Verify screen.

Note: If prompted, log on to the character-based system.

Scan the product.
In the Qty field, enter the quantity that you have received. The system displays an overshipment prompt.
At this prompt, enter Y to receive the excess quantity.

The system creates a separate line for the overshipped quantity of the product and assigns it the status defined in the RF Overstock Type control maintenance record. It then sends the job queue to the P/O's originator.

Continue the receiving process for the excess items.
Either put away the items or press Esc to save updates and exit the screen.
