Receiving parts that already have a bin location for a work order should not default to WORKORDER bin when it is received.
When a tech requests a part that already has a bin location in the system, say 100179699 which is located in shelf D01G and have non on hand, a req will generate under the work order category specifically for that work order. However, once we receive that part in the system, it will automatically default to the "WORKORDER" bin instead of its original bin which was D01G. Can we change this in the system? We never had this issue in SAP, so if the part was canceled from the work order, it would stay in the original bin. This will significantly reduce the number of parts in "WORKORDER" bin.

The business owners have decided that parts requested against a task should remain in the WORK ORDER bin upon receipt. Parts for refilling stock should not be ordered against tasks, which will prevent them from going to the incorrect bin.

I am sorry, but I don't agree with the logic. it just creates more work for the SCS to transfer these established parts to their original bins. It's difficult enough to keep track of brand new parts that get cancelled off a task with out notifying the SCS.

The system currently chooses qtys. from bins alphabetically. Say there are a qty. of 5 EA on had of a Part ID and a Tech. needs 4 EA. The QOH are: 2 EA in bin A0102, 2 EA in bin B0501 and 1 EA in bin named WORKORDER. The system pulls qtys. needed by demand from bin A0102 & B0501 and leave 1 EA in bin WORKORDER.

Need to give the Technicians the ability to select the storage bin they would like to pull needed qtys. from and the same ability when they consume the parts to choose the bin they would like to consume the qtys. from - even giving them the ability to designate different qtys. from different storage bins.

I would agree with this or the system should allow you to change the location to which you are putting the product when received.
