Autoload Values These options enable you to indicate how you want to save the selections made in this pane.

You can choose to set all selections as they were when you last ran the program (i.e. Load Previous Form Values) or save your selections in the pane as your default preferences for all companies, or for the current company only (i.e. Save Form Values as Default or Save Form Values for this Company).

Warehouse selection Indicate the warehouse(s) for which to display bin details.

Listview columns

Column Description
Bin

ADJUST bins are created by the Inventory Period End program when the total on hand quantity of the bins for a warehouse do not match the on hand quantity stored against the warehouse in the multiple bins for that warehouse/stock code.

When an adjust bin is found, the quantity in the bin should be transferred to the correct bin (see Inventory Movements) and then the ADJUST bin should be deleted (see Inventory Bin Maintenance).

Ship quantity This indicates the quantity reserved for sales order lines which have a quantity to ship. If there are no open sales orders for these items, then the Balance function of the Order Purge program clears the ship quantity.
Notes This displays any notes assigned to the bin.
Last receipt This indicates the date on which the last inventory receipt was processed for the bin. This field is also updated for Adjustments processed using the Inventory Movements program.
On hold This indicates whether the bin is on hold.
Reason for hold This indicates the reason for the bin being on hold.

Notes and warnings

Restricted maintenance

  • You cannot maintain information displayed in this listview if access to the program is set to Browse only, but access to the corresponding maintenance program is not allowed (see Security Access).

Program Access

  • You can only access this program when the Multiple bins option is enabled (Inventory Setup).

  • This program can be accessed by selecting the Multiple Bins option from the Query menu of the Inventory Query program.

Deletion considerations

  • You can only delete a bin if it has a zero quantity on hand and there has been no movement against the bin for three months.

  • You cannot delete the default bin in a warehouse that does not require multiple bins.

Bin display considerations

  • Not all bins are displayed by default. For example: When you add a new bin, it is not displayed unless you select to display bins with a zero quantity on hand (Include option).

  • If you enabled the Multiple bins option (Inventory Setup) but have not enabled the Multiple bins in use option against the warehouse (Warehouses) then the details of the default bin are displayed. The default bin is created with the same code as the warehouse code in which it was created.
