Purpose
On the Production Batch Detail page, you have the ability to facilitate Inventory Destruction. This feature allows users to create a Destruction Event for inventory contained within a production batch.
What can you do with it?
The Inventory Destruction feature enables you to efficiently manage the removal of inventory from your production processes. By allowing users to create a Destruction Event, you can precisely track which items are being discarded, ensuring compliance and accurate record-keeping.
How is it done?
Select Your Destruction Lot:
Use the Data Select tool to choose the specific destruction lot where the removal will take place.
Identify the Inventory:
Choose the Product and Batch related to the inventory you wish to destroy.
Ensure the Inventory Exists in System box is checked when applicable.
Specify Inventory Details:
Optionally, choose the Destroy From Lot for precise targeting.
Select the relevant Inventory ID for the item in question.
Determine Inventory Usage:
Enable the Use Remaining Inventory checkbox if you wish to consume all remaining items.
Enter the Quantity of inventory to be destroyed, mindful not to exceed the Amount Available.
Specify the Inventory Unit to clarify measurement standards.
Document the Event:
State the Destruction Reason to ensure clarity and accountability.
Provide a detailed Description of the event.
Record the Timestamp; if left blank, it defaults to the current date and time.
Important Considerations
Always double-check that the Destruction Lot, Product, and Batch align with your intentions before proceeding.
Be aware that certain fields, such as Batch and Product, may be immutable if initiated from specific actions.
Best Practices
Consistently review your Inventory Unit selections to ensure accurate data tracking.
Thoroughly document each Destruction Event with a clear description and valid reasons to maintain a transparent audit trail.
Utilize the Amount Available field to guide your quantity entries and prevent over-reporting destruction activities.
