Feature - Work Order Transfer Batch Trx Date to Use Start Date - Buffer Days
Version: 8.5 & Up
When users print work orders, if the inventory transfer feature is used (e.g., multi-bin users,) the transfer batch transaction date and time used to use the following logic:
- Transfer Batch Transaction Date: Use System Date
- Transfer Batch Transaction Time: Use System Time
We have now introduced new Global Setup flags in Dist -> Inventory Transfer Control, Screen 2:
26. Work Order Transfer Start Buffer Days
27. Work Order Transfer Default Start Time
See sample screen below:
As a result, the new logic is as follows:
- Transfer Batch Transaction Date: It is now calculated "Work Order Start Date - Buffer Days", unless the end result is less than the system date. In that case, use the system date. In addition, system will look at company calendar (System Utilities -> System File Setup -> Maintenance -> Calendar File) to make sure the Transaction Date does not fall on the weekend or holiday.
- Transfer Batch Transaction Time: Use Global Setup default start time, unless default start time is zeroes. In that case, use the system time.
