Receiving Repaired Resource Units

When you receive a repaired serialized resource unit from an outside vendor, you must create a purchase receipt transaction. After you receive the unit, by default it will have the “Spares” status. This puts the unit directly into inventory.

If you need to inspect the unit before returning it to inventory, select the “Awaiting Restock” status instead. After the part has passed inspection, you will need to create a return to inventory transaction and the status can be changed to “Spare.” The repaired unit is then available to be issued from the warehouse.

To Receive a Repaired Resource Unit

1.	In the Site window, select the Resource Management view and then the Inventory tab.

2.	Select the Warehouses tab. By default, this tab lists all warehouses for the site and above, in a table on the left.

3.	Double-click to open the warehouse for which you want to receive a repaired resource unit. The Warehouse window appears.

4.	Select the Receiving Dock view, and then the PO’s Waiting to be Received tab. This view lists all of the purchase orders being received at warehouses on this site.

5.	Right-click the purchase order you are receiving select Receive. The Receiving Report window appears.

6.	The system creates a receipt transaction for each line on the purchase order. Double-click to open the line for the repaired item. The Resource Transaction dialog appears.

7.	Verify the information on both of the Receipt tabs.

8.	Select the Unit Info tab. The new unit status after the transaction defaults to ‘Spare’. If you need to inspect the unit before restocking it, select the status ‘Awaiting Re-stock’.

9.	When the information on the form is correct, click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

10.	When you have reviewed all of the receipts, click Post Receipts. This posts the receipt transactions and updates inventory balances.

11.	If you received the unit with the ‘Spares’ status, you do not need to do anything else.

If the unit was held for inspection, to move the unit into inventory you will need to create a return to inventory transaction. When you create the return transaction, you can change the unit’s status to ‘Spare.’ Please see Please see Returning Serialized Inventory Units to Inventory.
