Introduction

This documents describes the settings available for E-WMS Stock Transactions in Exact Globe Next menu System, General, Settings, WMS Stock Transactions, as available per product update 410.

 

Description

The settings tab 'WMS Stock Transactions' contains settings specific for the 'stock transactions process' in E-WMS. Besides these module settings, also hand terminal settings have to be configured.

Communication
This setting determines the default method of reading transactions from the mobile devices. This document provides more information on E-WMS communication methods.

Ask user
When enabled, at each 'read-back' in the control center, the user is able to choose the communication method through a pop-up window. Under normal circumstances this option should be disabled. In practice this option will be used when you are communicating with different types of hand terminals - for example wireless ASP hand terminals, and also with CAB Activesync hand terminals (it is not recommended to use several communication methods in the same database).

Scan code
Determines how an item is identified after scanning an item- or scan code in the 'item' field. This document provides more information.

Printer
This is the default printer used when printing E-WMS reports; this document provides more information.

Use stock transaction codes
Enables or disables the use of stock transaction codes on the hand terminal.
When enabled, you can enter or scan a 'stock transaction code' on the hand terminal, and input of general ledger number and project is always disabled. When disabled, you can enter or scan general ledger number or project code on the hand terminal.

File name
See document WMS 'file name' settings.

Report settings (all sections)
See document WMS reports.

Immediate validation
When enabled, the 'validation' process will automatically start after reading back and the transaction lines will go to status "validated" or "picking error". When disabled, transactions stay in status "picked" until the button "Validate" is used, or until the transaction is opened in the control center. When using the WMS RF service for Stock Transactions, this setting needs to be enabled to allow for automatic processing in the background.

Immediate processing
When enabled, validated transactions will automatically be processed. When disabled, the validated lines stay in status "validated" until the button 'Process' is used. When using the WMS RF service for Stock Transactions, this option should be enabled unless you want to process the transactions manually.

Generate WMS allocations
Available from release 410 for E-WMS I (ASP) and only visible when usage of 'WMS allocations' is enabled. When this setting is enabled, SKU or serial/batch receipts are allocated to the project used when scanning the transaction, and this stock is advised only to sales orders linked to the same project. If disabled, the received stock is not allocated in E-WMS.
