Modify and Print Transport Task
Explanation
A transport task can be created either in IFS/Inventory or in IFS/Purchasing. You can
then modify the task in Transport Task. This window can either
be opened directly in IFS/Inventory or reached via several other functions. You can change
the site and location. You also can print a transport task report from this window. The
printout can be reprinted. Transport tasks are handled differently in different parts of
IFS Applications. In most parts of IFS/Inventory, for example, transport tasks can be used
for all kinds of goods. The receipt handling in IFS/Purchasing, however, only supports
transport tasks for pallets.
The procedures below describe how to modify and print transport tasks in IFS/Inventory
as well as in IFS/Purchasing.
Prerequisites
- A transport task must have been created.
- To be able to change the site, more than one site must have been entered
in the system. This is done in the
Site window. Your user ID must have been connected to more than one
site; this is done in the Sites per User window.
- If you are changing a site, you also must have a proper location entered for this site.
The part must also be entered on the other site. This can be done by using
Copy
Parts to Site window. However, after copying, you must add some conditional data to
the inventory part on the new site.
System Effects
The system prints a transport task report. You can execute the transport task from the
Warehouse Task/Transport
Task tab.
