Application description

You can use the Cockpit: Inventory requisitions/Line items application to view inventory requisition line items from the warehouse area. The line item data of the inventory requisition vouchers is displayed in this cockpit.

Further processing options are also available:

  • Display of the voucher chain for an individual voucher line item
  • Switch via the voucher number or voucher line item to the Inventory requisitions application for further processing of the voucher
  • Release inventory requisition line items
  • Release inventory requisition line items and generate inventory orders

The application consists of a query pane and a work pane.

Query area

Query fields are stored in the query pane. As a rule, the most important query fields are already available. However, the number of query fields and their placement can vary.

The query pane is saved per view. You can determine which query fields are displayed. To do this, select the desired query fields from a list of fields. The description of the query fields can usually be found in the direct help.

General descriptions of a query field can be found in the Cockpits article.

Detailed search Picking information

In addition to the main search with the query characteristics in the query pane, the detailed search Picking information can be used. Detailed searches can be combined with the main search so that both the query characteristics from the query pane and the query characteristics from the detailed search are evaluated as an AND link. A checkbox is available in the section line of the detailed search for combining. The [Picking information] button is available to display the corresponding results in the work pane. If this button is activated, a further heading line with corresponding detailed information appears in the work pane.

Detailed search Serial numbers

In addition to the main search with the query characteristics in the query pane, the detailed search Serial numbers can be used. Detailed searches can be combined with the main search so that both the query characteristics from the query pane and the query characteristics from the detailed search are evaluated as an AND link. A checkbox is available in the section line of the detailed search for combining. The [Serial numbers] button is available to display the corresponding results in the work pane. If this button is activated, a further heading line with corresponding detailed information appears in the work pane.

Work pane

A table is available in the work pane in which the queried inventory requisitions are displayed. You can determine yourself which information is displayed for an inventory requisition. Several views can be created to view an inventory requisition in different ways with different information.

If you have also activated a detailed search button, the table contains an additional heading line and detailed information.

General descriptions of a work pane can be found in the Cockpits article.

For information on the meaning of the columns, please refer to the explanations in the Inventory requisitions article.

The action can be carried out repeatedly if items have the status In process.
