Batch On Hold Maintenance
Exploring
This program lets you place stock codes on hold for various different reasons.
Things you can do in this program include:
- Put stock codes on full hold (no transactions can be processed against the stock codes)
- Put stock codes on partial hold (transactions can still be processed against the stock codes)
- Release stock codes from a full or partial hold
-
This program is accessed from the Program List of the SYSPRO menu:
Program List > Inventory > Transaction Processing
A stock code is a number that uniquely identifies an inventory item that is bought or manufactured and which is typically stored in one or more warehouses.
All activity relating to the forecasting, purchasing, manufacturing, stocking and selling of a stocked item is tracked by means of the stock code.
A stock code can be linked to one or more lot numbers if the item is defined as lot traceable. If there is a warranty, the stock code can be defined as serialized and linked to one or more serial numbers.
If the Bill of Materials module is installed, stocked items may be linked in a parent/component relationship for use in Work In Progress and Sales Orders (Kit sales).
You can use the stock code as a selection criterion when generating reports.
You maintain stock codes using the Stock Code Maintenance program.
Starting
You can restrict operator access to programs by assigning them to groups and applying access control against the group (configured using the Operator Groups program).
- Stock codes that were put on hold via the product recall functionality will not appear in this program.
- Stock codes that were put on hold via a product recall, can only be released using the product recall.

If a stock code that has been put on hold using the Batch On Hold Maintenance program, is subsequently included in a product recall, it will be marked as part of a recall and has to be released using the product recall functionality.
Solving
Stock codes that were put on hold via the product recall functionality will not appear in this program.
This may be due to the stock code being included in a product recall:
