Consigned materials

Virginia,

I use receipt entry to receive in my customer supplied material. you leave the po at zero and tab down to supplier id. I have a supplier set up just for receiving customer supplied material, enter in the id and receive the material directly to the job material seq number. the only additional work I have to do periodically is go to ap invoice entry and post the receipts. in there you open up a batch and keep the po at zero and put in the supplier id, then you post all those receipts at zero dollars.

I was wondering how you are setting up consigned materials on the method of manufacturing. We are receiving parts from our customer, performing operations on them and consuming other raw materials, then shipping those parts back to the customer.

Are you setting the consigned parts up on the MOM?
How are you receiving these parts into the system, dummy PO?

thanks in advance.

I am reposting this, to see if anyone has any comments on consigned
materials. I figured many were at perspectives last week and this likely
got lost in the shuffle.

Kevin,



All of our parts are Lot Tracked.

When we receive consigned stock we add a CM prefix (CM = Customer) to
the lot number and give that lot number a 0 stock value

We can then report by stock value or by the lot numbers



Regards

Mark

Has anyone upgraded to 9.05.601A yet? Any issues?



9.05.600C has some serious issues on backflushed materials that is fixed in
601, but I want to make sure I'm not trading one issue for another.



Thanks.

We are performing work on customer supplied parts, and we have two
Vantage parts defined for each physical part:

(a) the purchased "raw" part as received from customer, with zero cost

(b) the manufactured finished part as shipped to customer, with a
material list that includes the raw part, plus the parts we install we
course, with a total cost that is basically our value add.



Both parts are received & shipped in Vantage, but our tracking (PO etc)
numbers are unusual due to customer requirements, so probably not a good
example for you. :-(



Hope this helps,

We have it on a testing server. We haven't tested too thoroughly yet, but we
haven't noticed any glaring issues.

On in a testing environment.

I also have heard through the grapevine that there are LOTS of problems with
601 and 601a.

I know the one glaring issue I have been dealing with for a customer is a
problem with Tax Tran in other countries, as well as the inability to
properly import posting rules. Finally able to import posting rules one we
were up to 601a with the hot fix applied, but there were still errors with
the posting rules and activating some of the rules.

Get an error telling us "The revision could not be activated. Version of the
document structure (504.1) does not match the version of code (504.2)"

Trying to work with Support to get the problem fixed.

For what its worth, I prefer this method. It is a nice record for
tracking customer receipts. Remember, this is most likely valuable
material to the customer and there will be a day they will want to
reconcile shipments. Its hard to argue intelligently without proper
receipt records.

Kevin,

We do the same thing that Brian does (except we only ship the finished part). Yes we do have the consigned part on the MOM. A part number just for that. For receiving we use "misc. receipts entry". Misc. receipt allows us to receive the consigned part set up in the MOM, and put into inventory. We scan the receiving packers and attach to the vantage misc. receipt for the day when the customer comes calling as Bruce stated.

We are planning to use lot control on the consigned material. Have tested it and works as advertised.

We do not create DUMMY PO's to receive against (thus the misc. receipt). This idea has come up however as a means to inform our customer as to what part number, qty and date they need to ship us the consigned material. Some of our customers struggle with managing this. We would then produce an OPEN Order Report and email it to our customer (need to set customer up as a supplier). We have not yet done this because it does add a fair amount of admin/clerical/purchasing/scheduling overhead to create and manage the Dummy PO's and we are hoping our customer gets better at just using the inventory status reports we send them.

Matt, Just wanted to clarify, when you refer to using "misc. receipts entry" where do you create that transaction? Are you just going to Receipt Entry and creating a receipt to stock transaction and then issuing the inventory to the appropriate job?

Thanks,

Yes, receipt to stock. (or receipt to job)

Receiving works different than other menus (but that never happens in vantage right!) in that there is no drop down for the "misc." transaction type function. Instead you leave the PO field, in the Receipt entry summary tab, empty. Then choose receipt to stock(or receipt to job). When the PO field is left blank vantage automatically creates the misc. receipt type. You can see this at the top of the stock tab(job material tab).

Matt (and others),



Thanks for the inputs! I was leaning toward the zero-priced PO route, but I
think I'll give the misc transaction a go.
