MES Software: Inventory Management
Inventory Adjustments
Quantities in Raw Material Inventory (RMI) and Finished Goods Inventory (FGI) can
be adjusted by the 'Inventory Adjustment' function which can be accessed from the
Inventory Desktop.
NOTE: It is possible to attach Inventory Receive Flows
to specific
Part Definitions. This can be used to e.g. 'force' an Incomming Inspection
when material is received.
The following figure shows the steps to change the Inventory Quantities:
To change the inventory quantities, take the following Steps.
- From the different
Desktop Tabs click the Inventory Desktop.
- Click the Adjust Inventory Icon. This will open the 'Manage Part Inventory' listbox.

- In case you cannot find the part you want to create, use one of the Filters of the Listbox to find the
Part Definition for which you want to adjust the quantity
- Enter the number of parts you would like to add to the inventory in the entry field.
If the selected Part is Discrete
then the number of
Part Records that will be created will be equal to the quantity entered.
For
Non-Discrete parts only a single
Part Record will be created.
- Click the plus sign next to the entry.
In case the
Part Definition of the part you want to create has an defined Inventory Receive Flow
a
Flow Record will be created with
Part Records already attached. Dependent on the steps of the inventory
flows different attributes can be assigned to the parts.
