Allocations and Returns
The Dataforce ASAP stock system is based on transactions that occur in the following directions.
Allocations is stock transferred from:
- Supplier to Warehouse.
- Warehouse to Field worker.
- Field worker to Appointment (auto).
Returns is stock transferred from:
- Warehouse to Supplier.
- Field worker to Warehouse.
- Appointment to Field worker (auto).
When stock is received from a supplier, an operator creates a stock transaction that Allocates from a Supplier to the Warehouse. If the stock is returned, an operator creates a stock transaction that Returns Warehouse to the Supplier.
When stock is issued to the Field worker, an operator creates a stock transaction that Allocates from Warehouse to the Field worker and the reverse when returned, the operator creates a stock transaction that Returns Field worker to the Warehouse.
When an appointment is completed, Dataforce ASAP creates a stock transaction that consumes stock. If the appointment is no longer consuming the stock then a transaction is created to return the stock to the Field Worker. Return from Appointment to the Field worker.
