Move order Discrepancies

It is common that move order discrepancies will be found by the receiving warehouse.  Damaged stock, missing stock or different stock received.

Note

you may have to change the warehouse filter to see all relevant journals

Any discrepancy will be stock adjusted in the transit location before it is received in the destination warehouse. This adjustment will therefore not show if you are filtering the stock audit display by a warehouse.

The Move Order discrepancy report explains clearly what has happened and what needs to be done.The discrepancy report can be printed or emailed at any time from the Move Order Status menu. Automated emails are sent to branch managers involved for any discrepancies found.

If the warehouse managers after discussion

  • determine that 20 cartons picked as PRODUCTA were really PRODUCTB then they should do the appropriate stock adjustments in the source warehouse
  • determine that they were counted incorrectly at the destination then a stock adjustment should be done there.

The journal GL Accounts used is based on the Discrepancy Reason chosen by the receiving user.

  • If Pick error is chosen then the stock adjustment will use the Move Order Discrepancy GL Control account.
  • If Damaged or Spoiled is chosen then the Stock Adjustment will use the Stock Write Off GL Control account

No stock is left in a transit location or in any questionable state - stock adjustment journals are complete before the move order can be closed.

Move Orders with discrepancies can be listed from the Purchase Reports (Purchase menu) Move Orders tab. Select Show exceptions only and Show closed orders, click Refresh and look in the Discrep column.
