Inter-Site Stock Transfers with 944 In (Purchase Receipt) in Warehouse Management

By | August 31, 2023

The 944 In (Purchase Receipt Inter-site Stock Transfer) (Warehouse) is an electronic document used in supply chain management to record the receipt of goods transferred between different warehouse locations within a company. This transaction is specifically related to inter-site stock transfers, where inventory is moved from one warehouse to another within the same organization.

The 944 In document contains essential information about the transferred goods, including details such as the sender’s and receiver’s information, item descriptions, quantities, packaging instructions, and transportation details. This document helps track the movement of inventory between warehouses and ensures accurate record-keeping.

By using the 944 In the document, companies can effectively manage their internal stock transfers, maintain visibility of inventory across different locations, and streamline their supply chain operations. It facilitates efficient communication between warehouse teams, enhances inventory control, and enables proper tracking of stock movements within the organisation.

Key Features:

Key features for the process of programmatically picking the EDI file from a defined location and creating a Purchase Receipt against the Purchase Order transaction in Sage X3 are as follows:

  1. File Copy: The EDI file will be programmatically copied from the defined location, such as FTP, SFTP, or a network path, and saved in the Sage X3 local file format. This ensures that the file is accessible within the system for further processing.
  2. Backup Archive: As a backup measure, the same EDI file will be copied and stored as an archive. This provides a reliable option for future reference or retrieval, if needed.
  3. File Conversion: Based on the defined mapping, the EDI file will be programmatically read and converted into a Sage X3-compatible template. This conversion ensures that the file can be processed and understood by the system.
  4. Purchase Receipt Creation: Once the Sage X3 template is ready, a Purchase Receipt will be created using the stock details from the file, such as LOT, Serial, Sublot, and any other relevant information. The system will display a log to provide visibility into the process and any potential errors or notifications.
  • File Deletion: After the successful processing of the EDI file, it will be deleted from the source location. This helps maintain a clean and organised file management system.
  • Manual or Batch Execution: The entire process can be executed manually or automated as a batch task. In the case of batch execution, it can be performed in an unattended manner, running in the background without requiring manual intervention. This allows for efficient and streamlined processing of multiple files.

These key features enable the seamless integration of EDI files into Sage X3, facilitating the creation of Purchase Receipts and ensuring accurate tracking of sales orders, deliveries, and purchase orders. The process can be customised to fit specific business requirements and can be executed either manually or automatically for enhanced efficiency.

The 944IN EDI file is a critical component of supply chain management, specifically used for recording the receipt of goods transferred between warehouse locations. This electronic document enables accurate tracking and efficient communication between warehouse teams, ensuring streamlined operations and effective inventory control. By leveraging the 944IN EDI file, organizations can optimize their supply chain processes, maintain inventory visibility, and enhance their overall logistics management.
