This screen is used to add descriptive information for a company/warehouse, or to change the data for an existing warehouse description.  The fields on this screen are distribution parameters used as defaults and used to control processing of all distribution and inventory related transactions within the company/ warehouse.

COMPANY

Required.  The company code and name must be defined on the Reference File category 002 before the warehouse description can be defined.

COMPANY NAME

Display only.  This is the company name from the reference file.

WAREHOUSE

Required.  This is the warehouse to be maintained.

WAREHOUSE NAME

Required.  This is the name used to describe the entered warehouse.  This name will appear on screens and reports when you report information for this warehouse code.

WAREHOUSE ADDRESS

Required.  Enter the ship-to address for the purchase order entered for this warehouse.

WAREHOUSE ADDRESS (Line 2)

Optional.  May be used if a second line for the address is required.

WAREHOUSE CITY NAME or WAREHOUSE ADDRESS (Line 3)

Optional.  If the U.S. address format is used, the city field is displayed and is required.  If the free-form format is used, a third line for the address is displayed; this line is optional.  The address format is defined on Reference File category 133.

WAREHOUSE STATE CODE/PROVINCE CODE

Required.  (Field is used for warehouse state code or Province code depending on the environment.) Enter either state or province code.  The code you enter must exist on Reference File category 326.

WAREHOUSE ZIP CODE

Required.  Displayed only if U.S. address format is used.

WAREHOUSE COUNTRY CODE

Optional; required if ESL/SSD processing is used.  If entered, must exist on Reference File category 007.

PROVINCE CODE

Required.  Displayed only if European address format is used and the Tax Code field on Reference File category 132 is 'B' for GST.

PLANT

Required.  Used to identify the plant where the company/ warehouse exists.  The plant must be valid (not all nines) and the user must be authorized to add the company/warehouse associated with the plant (Reference category 409).  A blank plant may be established for pure distribution environments where warehouses are used for distribution only.  If the plant is blank, the Manufacturing Site Flag must be 'N' (No).

MANUFACTURING SITE

Required.  Identifies this company/warehouse as being the manufacturing site for this plant.  There can be only one manufacturing location/warehouse for a plant.

INVENTORY TRANSACTIONS ALLOWED OPTION

Required.  Must be Y (Yes) or N (No).  If this flag set to 'N', inventory transactions will not be allowed for this warehouse.  May be useful as a control during physical inventory counts or for logical "quarantined" company/warehouses.

PRINTER LOCATION OUTPUT QUEUE

Required.  The value entered defines the output queue used if company/warehouse-specific reports are to be printed at individual company/warehouses.  The default value is QPRINT.  The output queue must be defined on the machine as well as on Reference category C07.

INVENTORY COSTING OPTION

Required.  Must be S (standard) or M (moving average).  If a manufacturing company warehouse is being maintained, this field must be 'S'.  Once entered, this field cannot be changed.  See the Key Concepts section of the Inventory Control User's Manual for a description of standard versus moving average costing, or place an "X" next to this paragraph and press F11 for an online explanation.

COMPANY/WAREHOUSE BILL TO ADDRESS

Optional.  If not entered, defaults to the company/warehouse entered above.  If the default is not used, the entered company/warehouse must have an existing warehouse description.  The bill to address is printed on purchase orders.

FREE ON BOARD CODE

Required if OP is installed; Optional if OP is not.  The value entered must exist on Reference File category 419.  The FOB code will be defaulted on sales orders and purchase orders raised from this warehouse.

GENERAL LEDGER LOCATION

Required.  Transactions for this warehouse will be charged against the chart of accounts for this company/ location combination.  The company/location combination must exist on the Reference File category 002.  Once entered, this field cannot be changed.

LEAD TIME TO PROMISED SHIP DATE

Optional.  The value in this field defines the default number of days after entry of a customer sales order that an order is normally shipped.  It represents the amount of time typically required to package and prepare the shipment, assuming that the ordered items are already in inventory.  (Manufacturing lead time is defined on the Part Master File for each item.)  The lead time to promised ship date is used in the Sales Order Maintenance conversation to determine the default promised ship date for the order.  Promised ship dates for transfer orders are calculated using the Transfer Order Lead time defined between two company/warehouse combinations on Reference File category D17.

VALUE ADDED TAX REFERENCE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

Optional.  For VAT environments, this is the identification number assigned to this company.  The value entered here will be printed on sales order invoices for this warehouse.

LEAD TIME FOR ORDER PICKING

Optional.  This value defines the default number of days required to pick and ship a customer order after the picker has been printed. The date a sales order with a release code of 'P',(promised ship date), is released is calculated from the promised ship date on the order, and the lead time for order picking of the sourcing warehouse.  This lead time is likewise used for transfer order pickers (in the supplying/shipping company/warehouse).

PRIMARY STOCK LOCATION

Required.  A record will be added to the Location Validation File for an add transaction.  For a change, the location must exist on the Location Validation File.

CALENDAR CODE

Required.  Specifies the particular calendar under which the company/warehouse operates.  Once this field is entered for a manufacturing company/warehouse, it cannot be changed.  The other fields on this screen provide additional information associated with the calendar code.  Be careful when you assign a calendar code to a distribution warehouse, because cycle count scheduling is based on working versus non-working days.

RESERVE INVENTORY BY STOCK LOCATION

Required.  This flag is used to indicate whether or not inventory for sales orders (NOT transfer orders) can be reserved down to the location level in this company/warehouse. Valid values are 'Y' (Yes) or 'N' (No).  Note that you cannot change this flag once sales orders are taken for the warehouse.

FUTURE RESERVATION OPTION

Required.  This flag is used to indicate whether or not the inventory in this company/warehouse can be reserved for sales order lines whose due dates and promised ship dates are in the future.  This flag works in conjunction with the next field, Inventory Reservation Window, to determine how far into the future inventory will be re served for sales order lines when the Automatic Inventory Reservation Program is run.

INVENTORY RESERVATION WINDOW

Optional.  Used to determine the future horizon date within which inventory will be automatically be reserved to sales order line items.  When the promised ship date of a sales order line item falls within this "reservation window", inventory will be reserved to this line item if available and not already reserved to the line when the Automatic Inventory Reservation program is executed. Will default to zero.

RESERVE TO BACKORDERS FIRST

Required.  This company/warehouse level option allows backordered sales order line items priority over regular sales order line items when reserving available inventory to the line items.  Valid values are 'Y' (Yes) and 'N' (No).  When this flag is set to yes, the following calculation is used to determine the quantity of inventory to reserve: Distribution Quantity MINUS Reserved for Distribution MINUS Backorder Quantity EQUALS Quantity Available for Distribution.

AVAILABLE FOR PLANNING

Required.  Indicates whether inventory stored in this warehouse is considered available to meet demand in the Master Scheduling and Requirements Planning modules.  For a manufacturing warehouse (Manufacturing Site = Y), this field must be Y (yes).  For a distribution warehouse, the field must be either Y (yes) or N (no).  If the field is Y for a distribution warehouse, MS and RP will add the distribution inventory at the warehouse to the total inventory available within the plant to meet demand.  If the field is N, the inventory will not be included in the total.

DIVISION IDENTIFIER

Optional.  A user-defined identification of a remote user's location; for example, WEST.  Valid division IDs must exist on Reference File category I62.

SECTION IDENTIFIER

Optional.  A user-defined identification of a remote user's particular section; for example, SEC-B.  Valid section IDs must exist on Reference File category I62.
