Feature Spotlight: Auto Relieve Excess Material
In the ever-evolving landscape of manufacturing and inventory management, staying ahead means leveraging tools that streamline operations and enhance efficiency. Cetec ERP’s latest feature, “Auto-Relieve Excess Material,” is a testament to this pursuit, offering an innovative solution to a common challenge: managing minimum order quantities and recovering costs from material revisions effectively.
At its core, the “Auto-Relieve Excess Material” feature is designed to automatically allocate an entire bin quantity to an order. This functionality becomes particularly useful in scenarios where operations are dictated by minimum vendor order quantities or when unexpected customer revisions necessitate cost recovery for already-purchased materials.
Enabling this feature is straightforward, requiring the activation of a specific configuration within Cetec ERP.
You will enter the ID of an Inventory Shortage Reason (found under the Data Maintenance Table). Doing so ensures that the designated GL account accurately reflects the financial implications of non-PO receipt splits.
Inventory shortage reasons play a pivotal role in this process, providing a structured way to identify and account for inventory discrepancies. Each reason is associated with a “GL Account Id,” ensuring that financial records remain precise and transparent during the auto-relieve process. To see how this setting will function operationally, please refer to the How-To video here.
