Troubleshooting

There are several possible reasons why no planned materials to be issued are displayed on this page:

• The user logged in to SFC does not have right to the warehouse of the materials.
• Materials have already been fully issued.
• The production orders have not been printed.
• No materials are defined.
• Materials are linked to production orders or purchase orders that have not been completed.

Tips and tricks

The planned material lines displayed on this page:

• are without the Backflush check box selected in the production order entries (in Exact Globe Next),
• are of any operation status,
• have not been fully issued, and
• are for production orders that have been printed.

When issuing materials, you:

• can issue more than the planned quantity,
• can select the serial or batch numbers for serial or batch items, but
• cannot add new lines.

Validations

There are two levels of validations performed on this page. The first level of validation is performed on the touch screen, as detailed in the following table:

Field	Explanation
Location	This information is mandatory.
Serial/batch numbers	This information is mandatory for serial and batch items.
Quantity	You can define only numeric values. You can define up to eight decimal points for a divisible item. However, you cannot define a decimal value if the item is not a divisible item. A divisible item has the Divisible check box selected under the Basics tab of an item card. For more information, see Creating and maintaining items. This information is mandatory.
Serial/batch numbers and Quantity	The number of serial numbers defined must be equal to the quantity value. Otherwise, the “Invalid: Serial number <> Quantity” error message will be displayed.

 

The second level of validation is performed upon saving the data. These data will be stored in a temporary table, and will only be copied to Exact Globe Next via Exact Integration. If there are invalid data found, errors will be logged and no record will be updated to Exact Globe Next. See the following table for more explanations:

Scenario	Explanation
Existence of serial or batch numbers	Validation is performed according to the option selected at the Selection: Serial/batch numbers field at System à General à Settings à Order settings in Exact Globe Next. If you have selected Valid, errors will be logged for non-existing serial/batch numbers, and no update will be performed to your Exact Globe Next database. If you have selected Manually or All, the non-existing serial/batch numbers will be created in your Exact Globe Next database.
E-Realisation (SE4050)	If your Exact Globe Next does not have this license, an error will be logged upon saving the data to Exact Globe Next, and no update will be performed to your Exact Globe Next database.
Insufficient stock	This validation is performed only if the Check stock check box is selected under the Fulfillment section at System à General à Settings à Order settings in Exact Globe Next. If the quantity defined is more than the stock available, an error will be logged upon saving the data to Exact Globe Next, and no update will be performed to your Exact Globe Next database.
Status of material	If the status of the material has been changed to Inactive, Future, or Blocked, an error will be logged upon saving the data to Exact Globe Next, and no update will be performed to your Exact Globe Next database.

 

Exceptional scenarios

The following table lists a few exceptional scenarios that could occur and how the system handles these scenarios:

Scenario	Explanation
Menu right	No validation will be performed if you do not have the Manufacturing à Entries à Issue menu right. Without this menu right, you can still issue materials on the Issue materials page as long as you are the administrator. This is because only the administrator right is required by Exact Integration to update the data to Exact Globe Next database.
Pre-filled information	If information on the serial or batch number and/or location of the warehouse is available for the material, or if the auto enrich process has been performed for the production order in Exact Globe Next, the values for the serial or batch number and/or location will be automatically defined on the Issue materials page.
Material contains wastage	If the material has wastage, the wastage will be displayed as a separate line on the Issue materials page, but without any indication that it is a wastage.
