Receipt Put Away Logic

A stocking location for receiving a part can be automatically determined at the time of flow receipt.  The part must be defined as a location-controlled part with a preferred location on the Warehouse Balance File (IC140M).  When the part is received, the first empty location-controlled location on the Location Validation File (DE140M) for the current company/warehouse will be displayed as a default location on the flow receipt screen.

If no empty locations exist, the user can search for a valid location.  A command key allows the user to enter the Part Location Search Inquiry conversation with the preferred location from the Warehouse Balance File as the search field value.  All locations that are location controlled in the current company/warehouse and have a current balance or previously had a balance of the part will be displayed.  At this time a location can be selected.  The inventory will be received into the selected location.
