Warehouse Information - SIUPWH
Use the Stores/Inventory (SI) Warehouse Information (SIUPWH) page to define the physical location where products are stored. At least one warehouse must be defined to use the Stores/Inventory module.
Warehouse ID: Enter up to four characters to uniquely identify each warehouse location.
Description: Enter up to 30 characters to uniquely describe the warehouse.
Search Order: When "ALL" is referenced in order processing, this field contains up to two digits that describe the order searching hierarchy. This code will direct the system to search multiple warehouse locations according to the predetermined hierarchy when searching for location of stocked items. Valid options are 1 through 99. For example, if "1" is entered, this warehouse will be searched first.
Name: Enter up to 36 characters to uniquely identify the name associated with the warehouse.
Overhead (%): Enter up to four digits (with two decimal places) for a percentage indicating the amount of warehouse overhead to be applied to each product. This is used to disburse the cost of overhead amongst the products and is a set percentage for each product referencing warehouse overhead. This value may be referenced by "WO" in pricing calculations.
Backorders: This field specifies how the system should process backorders. Select "Y" to direct the system to handle backorders in the standard fashion. Select "N" to direct the system not to process any backorders for that warehouse. Select "A" to direct the system to use the SI Print Backorders (SIOEPB) process.
Street #1, #2, #3: Enter up to 36 characters, on each of three lines, to describe the street address of the warehouse. One of the three lines may specify an "in-care-of" person or a post office box.
Require Association? By checking this field, the user may direct the system to only accept transactions to this warehouse if the SI Inventory Information (SIUPIN) page already exists. Leaving the field empty will allow the system to create a new inventory record for new items.
Quoted Pricing? Check this field to enable quoted pricing code.
Encumbrance? Check this field to enable encumbrance. Additionally, the NU Common Codes page with a Code Category/Value of SIEN/DIVISIONmust be defined with "ON" in Short Desc and the encumbrance division defined in Associated Code(1).
City: Enter the city associated with the street address using up to 20 characters.
State: Select the code specifying the state. State codes are derived from the Nucleus (NU) Common Codes (NUUPCD) page, with a Code Category/Value of PEST/xx.
Zip: Enter the five-digit zip code, a dash, and the four-digit zip extension for the warehouse.
Supervisor ID: Enter the Person/Entity ID (PE ID) of the supervisor of the warehouse. The ID must be valid in the Person/Entity database (PE) Person/Entity Information (PEUPPE) page. Use the Data Lookup function if the ID is not known.
Supervisor Name: The supervisor's name will echo as defined in Person/Entity Information.
Office Phone: Enter the phone number, including area code and extension, of the applicable warehouse office.
Floor Phone: Enter the phone number, including area code and extension, of the applicable warehouse floor.
Inventory Account: This account represents the value of inventory for this warehouse in the general ledger. It is used on POs that order goods for this warehouse. Enter the ledger code (if different from the default) followed by the inventory account number. Click the ellipsis (…) button to view the lookup or display options for the account field.
Posting Account: This is the "adjustment" account used during physical inventory within the SI Post Exceptions to GL and SI (SIINCTPS) process. Enter the ledger code (if different from the default) followed by the account used to post inventory adjustments (gain or loss) for this warehouse.
Exception Price: Enter up to 30 characters that uniquely identify special pricing structures to be used for the various customer classes when the product is sold or transferred. The user may enter up to six pricing structures for each product. For example, with a Price Code of RT (for retail), the Calc may be FIFO * 1.1 (for a ten percent mark-up).
Last Inventory: The date of the last physical inventory; edit the date using the drop-down calendar. If this field is left blank, the system will enter the date that the first count file is created for products within this warehouse. When performing a cycle count, this field is compared to the date an item was last counted to determine whether or not it should be included in the current cycle count.
Next Inventory: Enter or select the date of the next physical inventory. This is a user-entered date, not system generated.
Cycle A, B, C Number: Enter up to four digits specifying the number of different products to be counted per cycle count for each class. When doing a cycle count, the system uses this field, in conjunction with the next two, to determine which items to count. For example, A: [100] [2] [W] weeks means "find 100 class A items that have not been counted in the last two weeks and put them in a count file."
Cycle A, B, C Frequency: Enter up to three characters specifying the numeric time-frame involved per cycle. This cycle can be expressed in terms of days, weeks, months, or years, and is defined in the Expressed as field. For example, a "2" entered in this field with a "W" (for weeks) entered in the Expressed as field, would indicate that the class of products is to be cycle counted every two weeks.
Cycle A, B, C Expressed as: Select the code from the drop-down list describing the time-frame in the preceding field. Defined in static codes, valid options are D = Days, W = Weeks, M = Months, and Y = Years.
