J) Procedure of item delivery to manufacturing plant
Trigger: A request is forwarded from inventory controlling section to manufacturing raw materials store location.
Steps:
1- Raw materials inventory keeper should look at the requested items on the system and find locators which items are stored (Systematic).
Concerned positions:
Raw material inventory keeper
2- Material reservation should be done for the specified items and nominated locators. (And also lot & serial if applicable).This will be done by reservation form in system. So that the quantity of item stored in the reserved location and locator will not be transact able for any other request. It also is not counted in available on hand quantity calculations. (Systematic)
Concerned position:
Raw material inv keep
3- Inventory keeper must make materials ready for transaction physically. It means if materials are to be packed for movement, packing must be done. If they must move to staging location for outgoing, it should be done. (Non-systematic)
Concerned position:
Raw material inventory keeper & material warehouse worker
4- Reserved prepared materials will be delivered to the requesting plant. This physically may be done via an automated transferring mechanism like conveyers either the inventory responsible of the plant will transfer the materials by means of some vehicle like truck or loader and so on. (Non-systematic)
5- Once step 2 is done, an issue should not be registered in the system. This indicates delivery of materials to the requesting department and should include request number for integration purposes. It will also contain source location, locator, lot and serial as well as destination. Once this is done, quantity of material in the specified location and locator (lot and serial if applicable) is decreased and quantity of material in floor stock sub inventory of the plant is increased.
Concerned positions:
Raw material inventory keeper of main stores
Note: If manufacturing is running on JIT system, no floor stock sub inventory will be existed. It means the issued materials are directly used in the plant. Therefore, issue note in the system indicates decreasing main store quantity against increasing used materials in plant.
