Setup
GIT Warehouse Matrix Maintenance
You use the GIT Warehouse Matrix Maintenance program to indicate default entries that must be used
when transferring stock from a source warehouse to a target warehouse.
These entries are used only if you have not configured these details against the warehouse from which the
stock item is being transferred.
Establishing a matrix enables you to control the way in which you want to make the transfer, as well as
provide a less time-consuming way of capturing information.
The Warehouse Move Matrix listview displays details of the warehouse move matrices currently defined.

If any details are added or changed within this program, you
are prompted to run the GIT Supply Warehouse Validation
program to ensure that you have correctly configured entries in
the matrix.
Running the GIT Supply Warehouse Validation program
generates a report that indicates any problems detected by the
program.

You use this field to indicate the warehouse from which goods
will be transferred to a specific target warehouse.

Target warehouse

You use this field to indicate the warehouse to which goods will
be transferred from a specific source warehouse.

| Setup | 6

In addition to defining the warehouse move matrix, you need to use the Inventory Warehouses
program to define a valid Accounts Receivable branch for the warehouses against the field: Goods
in Transit Branch.
If the Accounts Receivable is not defined against the source and target warehouses, then the error
message: "Branch to be used for SCT is invalid" is displayed when you attempt to process a Supply
Chain Transfer (SCT) using the Sales Order Entry program.

Lead time

You use this field to indicate the number of days it takes


to move the stock from the source warehouse to the target
warehouse.

Transfer costs

It is used to establish the expected delivery date of goods.


Multiplier

Your entry here is used to calculate the additional nonmerchandise costs that you want to add to the cost of
transferring goods (e.g. freight and handling charges).
Note:
The multiplier is applied only if you selected the
option: Apply cost multiplier when processing receipts
(Inventory Setup).
The cost of the item in the source warehouse is multiplied by
this value to obtain the transfer value of the item.

Ledger code

You use this field to indicate the ledger account to which you
want to disburse the non-merchandise value arising from the
transfer of goods.

GIT Conversion Program


You use this conversion program to automatically convert existing warehouse transfers into Goods in
Transit transfers.
This enables you to activate the full goods in transit transfers facility without having to first manually
complete the transfer of all stock items that are in transit.
Note:

You must complete the transfer of any serialized or traceable item, as it is not catered for by this
program.
The Goods in Transit G/L control account must be defined before running the conversion
(General Ledger Integration).

GIT Conversion
When you activate Goods in Transit transfers facility (Inventory Setup) the system notifies you if there
are warehouse transfers in progress. You can choose whether to print a Warehouse Exception or run
the GIT Conversion Program program. Running the Warehouse Exception will highlight where there
are unfinished transfers that need to be addressed. Running the GIT Conversion Program program will
convert existing warehouse transfers to Goods in Transit transfers.
Field
Build transfers in
transit file

Values

Description
Select this to locate details of all stock quantities that are in
transit
Note:
If you select to build this file but the system detects you
have already run this function, then you can rebuild,
or update the file. The Update function appends new
entries to the file and preserves any maintenance that
you have already performed. The Rebuild function recreates the file and you will lose any maintenance you
have performed.

Maintain
transfers

Select this function to distribute quantities of stock in transit


against the relevant source warehouses.
This function is enabled only when the Build transfers in
transit file function is complete. It enables you to distribute
the total quantity in transit for a stock item by specifying the
originating warehouse and quantity for each transfer line being
maintained.
The quantity can be distributed to up to four source
warehouses, and you can optionally clear a quantity on the
target warehouse.
Note:

Validate transfers

Each source warehouse must exist.


The stock item must be stocked in the warehouse.
The source warehouse cannot be the target
warehouse.
The quantity to distribute cannot be more than the
total quantity in transit and any remaining quantity
not distributed across the source warehouses can
be cleared. For serialized or traceable items, you
can only select to clear the quantity.
The total of all quantities distributed and cleared
must equal the total quantity in transit in the target
warehouse. If the entire quantity is cleared then no
Goods in Transit record is generated.

Select this function to verify the entries generated during the


Maintain transfers function.
This function verifies that no other warehouse transfers
have been processed since the Build transfers in transit file
function was initiated. It also ensures that no transfers exist for
traceable or serialized items.

Cancel

Select this to exit the program.

Additional Information
The Goods in transit master record reflects {auto} in the operator column to indicate that the transfer was
created during take-on.
Although no Inventory journals are generated by the conversion, an audit trail is produced if you select to
clear any quantities.
Cleared quantities generate a movement record against the target warehouse (but do not contain any
quantities or values). The movement is reflected as a transfer with a reference {autoclr}. You can print
details of cleared quantities using the Warehouse Exception report (i.e. select the In transit cleared during
conversion option). If a quantity is cleared, then the In Transit figure for each relevant target warehouse is
cleared.
If FIFO is installed (Inventory Setup), then GIT FIFO/LIFO Transfer records are created.
The unit cost on the Goods in transit detail record is calculated as the in transit value divided by the in
transit quantity.

Processing
Inventory Movements
You use the Inventory Movements program to process transactions against your stock items.
These transactions (although unrelated to any sales transaction) do affect the movement of inventory
throughout the company. Sales-related transactions are processed using the Accounts Receivable and
Sales Order Processing modules.
If a General Ledger account used in this program requires General Ledger analysis (Ledger Code
Maintenance or General Ledger Structure Definition), then the GL Analysis program is displayed when
you post the transaction, enabling you to enter the analysis details or to select to enter them later (see
General Ledger Integration). General Ledger analysis entries are always distributed in the local currency,
irrespective of the currency in which the original transaction is processed.

Transaction Date
You use the Change Date option from the Options menu to set the date that must be used for the
transactions for the current run of the program.
Transaction Date
The transaction date defaults to the current system date, if you selected the option: Set accounting date
to system date (Operator Maintenance). The transaction date is used as the journal start date and the
inventory movement date.
For example, if the transaction extends over two days (e.g. the processing of the transaction begins before
midnight and ends after midnight) then the actual date of posting is used instead of the date on which the
program was loaded. In this example, the date after midnight is used as the transaction date.
Note:
We recommend that you exercise caution when setting the transaction date.
A number of programs provide the facility to change the date that must be used for the transaction.
If you change the transaction date manually, then the entered date is used regardless of the actual
date on which the transaction is posted.
Regardless of the date you enter, however, the transaction is posted to the General Ledger period
that matches the period of the module at the time the transaction is posted (i.e. posting to the
General Ledger is period-driven, not date-driven).
Because reports are date-driven, changes to the transaction date can affect the information that is
included in the report.

hand stock available.
If your Costing method is set to Average and you selected the
option: Do not calculate average cost on negative receipt
(Inventory Setup - General tab), then the average cost of the
stock item is not recalculated when you process a negative
receipt. In this case, the variance between the current average
cost and the cost entered is posted to the Warehouse variance
account defined against the warehouse to which the stock item
belongs (see Inventory Warehouses).
If your Costing method is set to FIFO and you selected the
option: Use zero cost bucket for returns (Inventory Setup Options tab), and you are processing a negative receipt, then if
the FIFO bucket selected by the program has a zero cost, the
returned quantity is added to the FIFO bucket but no change
is made to the unit cost of the bucket. If the option: Use zero
cost bucket for returns is not selected, then a new FIFO
bucket is created with the returned quantity and the current
warehouse cost.
If your Costing method is set to FIFO, then when you process
a negative receipt and you do not enter a Unit Cost and when
prompted 'Do you want to adjust a specific Bin' you select
'No', then the transaction value on the inventory document is
calculated as QTY * unit price from the First FIFO bin.
If you are using FIFO/LIFO costing and you enter a negative
quantity, you are given the opportunity to process the
transaction into a specific FIFO/LIFO bucket (see Adjust
Specific Bucket).

Transfers IN (GIT)
If you selected the option: Use full goods in transit transfers facility (Inventory Setup) then you need to
select the GIT transfers to process from a review of outstanding transfers.
The record of outstanding transfers controls the transfer in process.
You can select to receipt the total quantities transferred, or you can change the receipt quantity to effect a
partial receipt.
For a partial receipt, the transfer line can be completed by updating the source warehouse with the
difference in stock quantity and posting an adjustment transaction, or by writing off the stock and posting
an expense transaction.
If the target warehouse is defined as transfer supplied (Inventory Warehouses) then the system
establishes whether any lead time and/or cost multiplier exists between the two warehouses. Lead
time and/or cost multiplier entries defined against a specific stock code/warehouse combination take
precedence. If these entries are not defined at stock code level, then the program uses entries defined at
warehouse level (Warehouse Move Matrix). If entries are not located in the matrix then a lead time of zero
(0) and a cost multiplier of one (1) is used.

Bin Transfers
You use the Bin Transfers option to record the transfer of items from one bin to another.
Note:

You will be unable to process bin transfers if you have not indicated that multiple bins is required
(Inventory Setup).
The system does not view bin transfers as an inventory movement. Therefore, unless you
selected the option: Record movements for bin transfers (Inventory Setup - Options tab),
details are recorded only in the journal file (i.e. details are not recorded in the movement file).
You will be prevented from processing a bin transfer transaction when either the From bin or
To bin is on hold unless you selected the Preference: Warn if transferring bin on hold. In that
case, a warning message is displayed if a bin is on hold, but you can elect to continue with the
transfer.

Backflushing
You use the Backflushing option to record the manufacture of items without using a Work in Progress job.
The system uses the manufactured item's bill of materials (see Structures and Routings) to determine
the material and labor charges to be included.
Backflushing enables you, in one process, to issue the materials from inventory, apply standard labor
costs, and receive the finished good back into stock. This option is particularly relevant in situations
where the benefits derived from creating a job to track the activity on the job floor do not justify the cost of
processing all the data normally required for a job.
By default, components are issued from the warehouse to use defined against the Bill of Material structure
(Structures and Routings).
Before performing the Backflushing transactions, you need to indicate which warehouse you want to issue
the components from when backflushing and the level of backflushing you require.
Note:
Backflushing does not support Manufacturing Units of Measure. Backflushing always uses the
stocking unit of measure.

Backflushing
When you post a backflushing transaction:
Copyright 2012 Syspro Ltd. All rights reserved.

| Processing | 55

The cost is calculated using the materials and labor issued for the backflush.
For labor postings to be generated, the Work in Progress module must be installed. If the Work in
Progress module is not installed, then the value of operations (both subcontract and internal) is
accumulated, together with material costs to calculate the transaction value for the receipt of the parent
item. This is the value posted against the receipt journal against the parent item. However, because
WIP is not installed, no contra entry (issue journal) for labor can be posted for the operations as the
labor journal is not created and the work center efficiency files are not updated.
If the Work in Progress module is installed, then labor journals are created within the Work in Progress
system if any operations are held against the parent item being backflushed.
If you are using AB Costing, then when performing a multi-level backflush, the system only issues ABC
elements against the parent part or the final part not the components. Therefore the ABC elements
need to be associated with bringing the element into stock. The system assumes that the cost of the
component item has the relative ABC elements against it and does not recalculate it when the parent
part is brought back into stock. When a backflush is performed, the system looks at the component
requirements based on the sub-assembly requirements and then issues the required components
based on this. It does not first carry out the sub-assembly issue and then the parent part issue.
Therefore if there are any ABC Elements attached to the sub-assembly these will not be issued when
backflushing is carried out.
Inventory journals are created for each material issue.
If a by-product is included as a negative material allocation in a parent item, the by-product is receipted
into stock as a negative issue transaction.
Irrespective of your selection at the setup option: Stock on hand allowed to go negative (Inventory
Setup - General tab), items defined as Floorstock (Stock Code Maintenance) which are stocked
in the floorstock warehouse (WIP Setup) will always be allowed to go negative when backflushing,
regardless of your warehouse settings or costing method.
If you are using FIFO/LIFO costing and you enter a negative quantity, you are given the opportunity to
process the transaction into a specific FIFO/LIFO bucket (see Adjust Specific Bucket).
If you selected Backflush level - All and backflushing finds no stock for a sub-assembly, then it
explodes through to the sub-assembly's components to issue (i.e. the sub-assembly is treated as a
phantom part). That is, the component of the sub-assembly is issued during backflushing (all levels) if
there is no stock of the sub assembly.

Quantity

You use this field to indicate the quantity of the item you want
to backflush.
If the system encounters sufficient quantity of the components
to manufacture the parent item, then it reduces stock by the
required amount according to the bill of material structure.
Similarly, if stock on hand is allowed to go negative in the
warehouse(s) from which the backflush is processed, the
components are issued and stock is reduced by the required
amount according to the bill of material structure.
If there is an insufficient quantity of an item and stock on hand
is not allowed to go negative in the warehouse(s) from which
the backflush is processed, then the backflushing transaction
cannot be completed.
If there is insufficient quantity available of a sub-assembled
item to manufacture the item and you selected to backflush
All levels of the bill, then the system issues the quantity that
is available and continues with the next level of the bill of
material. It issues enough of the components of the subassembled item to make up the required quantity of the subassembled item. If you selected to backflush only the First
level of the bill of materials and insufficient stock exists for the
backflush, then the transaction cannot be completed, unless
stock on hand is allowed to go negative (the remainder of the
levels is not checked).
If you are using FIFO/LIFO costing and you enter a negative
quantity, you are given the opportunity to process the
transaction into a specific FIFO/LIFO bucket (see Adjust
Specific Bucket).

Bin location

You use this field to indicate the bin location into which the

this option is not selected, you must either enter an existing bin
or use the Inventory Bin Maintenance program to create a
new bin.
If the default bin against a component is not defined, then the
bin is assumed to be the same as the warehouse code.
If multiple bins are not in use for the warehouse from which
the backflush is being processed, then this field defaults to the
default bin for the warehouse and cannot be changed.
When processing a negative backflush quantity, the bin
location must exist against the parent item (i.e. the item must
have been issued against the parent item for that specific bin
location).

Note:

Irrespective of whether or not you select to include


the set-up, startup and teardown times when
backflushing, the run time and the fixed and variable
overheads are posted to the General Ledger.
The ledger accounts are determined by the General
Ledger integration codes defined against the work
centers linked to the operation(s).
Fixed and variable overheads are calculated using
the run time and the times selected at this option.
Fixed overheads are calculated as:
Fixed rate x (Run time + Set-up time + Startup time
+ Teardown time).
Therefore, if you do not select any of these options,
then the Fixed overheads are calculated as: Fixed
rate x (Run time).
Similarly, if you select only set-up time, then the
Fixed overheads are calculated as: Fixed rate x
(Run time + Set-up time).

The variable overheads are calculated in the same


manner, but using the variable overhead rate.

Cost Multiplier Calculations


When you select the option: Include non-merchandise costs in last cost (Inventory Setup - Options
tab), then you can add the calculated cost multiplier value to the receipt cost of an item when using the
Inventory Movements program to process a Receipt or a GIT Transfer In.
If you are using the full goods in transit facility (GIT Transfers) and you want to apply a cost multiplier
for items which are transfer supplied, then you must also select the option: Apply cost multiplier when
processing receipts (Inventory Setup - Options tab). This enables you to specify the portion of the
transaction value that comprises non-merchandise costs and to store these values in nominated ledger
accounts.
The cost multiplier is defined against a stock item using the Warehouses for Stock Code program.
The values calculated using a cost multiplier depend on the costing method you defined for Inventory
(Inventory Setup - Options tab).

Using a costing method other than Standard:


Total Transaction value = Quantity x New Cost x Cost Multiplier
Total Merchandise Value = Quantity x New Cost

Total Non-merchandise value = Transaction Value - Merchandise Value


Using Standard Costing:
Total Transaction Value = Quantity x Standard cost
Total Merchandise Value = (Quantity x Standard Cost) / Cost Multiplier
Total Non-merchandise value = Transaction Value - Merchandise Value

GIT Receipt with Apportionment


You use the GIT Receipt with Apportionment program to receive lines on a Goods in Transit reference
and apportion non-merchandise costs over each line. In addition, you can enter manual non-merchandise
costs.
If the option: GRN suspense system required (Purchase Orders Setup - GRN Tab), is selected, then
you can create a single Goods Received Note (GRN) for all non-merchandise charges or a GRN for each
non-merchandise charge. The GRN(s) created can then be matched to the supplier's invoice using the AP
Invoice Posting program.
Note:
You will be unable to use the GIT Receipt with Apportionment program if:

You have defined a cost multiplier other than 1 against the source warehouse (see Warehouse
Move Matrix) or
You have defined a cost multiplier against the stock item for the source warehouse (see
Warehouses for Stock Code).

Output Options
The options on this tab page enable you to define the output destination(s) of the report once it has been
compiled. Multiple output destinations can be selected for the report. For example, you may select to
simultaneously email, print and export the report.
Note:
This tab page is displayed only when you generate a report using SYSPRO Reporting Services.

Field

Description

Export as

This option enables you to select the format in which the report
must be exported (saved).

Export options

Export formats can be categorized as page-based formats and


record-based formats.
Depending on the format you select, the layout (object position,
object size and relationships between these attributes and
other objects) and formatting (font style, text color, text
alignment, background color, etc) may not be perfectly
preserved. Generally, page-based formats preserve these
properties as closely as possible.
With record-based formats, the emphasis is on data rather than
layout and formatting. Some record-based formats are only
data-exchange formats, for example Adobe Acrobat (PDF).
Crystal Report
(RPT)

Select this to export the report in Crystal Report (RPT) format.

Adobe Acrobat
(PDF)

Select this to export the report in Adobe Acrobat (PDF) format.

This format exports (saves) your report with the current data
without modifying the original report.

This is a page-based format. The exported documents are


intended for printing and redistribution. Acrobat format will
export both layout and formatting in a manner that is consistent
with how the report looks on the Preview tab.
Acrobat format embeds the TrueType fonts that appear in the
document. (Non-TrueType fonts are not supported.)
This export format does not support Microsoft font-linking
technology, which is used to provide support for some
extended character sets such as Chinese HKCS. Therefore,
the fonts used in the report must contain all of the required
glyphs. The following URI types are supported for hyperlinks:
http:, https: and mailto:.

HTML 4.0

Select this to export the report in HTML 4.0 format.


You would typically select this option if you wanted to create a
report in SRS which you want to publish on a website or email
to a recipient. An HTML page per report page is generated in
the directory you specify. Once published or emailed, the report
can be viewed without requiring SYSPRO programs.
This is a page-based format.
This format preserves the layout and formatting of the report by
using DHTML.

Field

Values

Description
All the images in the report are saved externally and a
hyperlink is inserted in the exported HTML output. Therefore,
this export format generates more than one file in the output.

Microsoft Excel
(XLS)

Select this to export the report in Microsoft Excel (XLS) format.


This is a page-based format.
This format converts your report contents into Excel cells
on a page-by-page basis. Contents from multiple pages are
exported to the same Excel worksheet. If a worksheet becomes
full and there is more data to export, the export program
creates multiple worksheets to accommodate the data. If
a report object covers more than one cell, then the export
program merges cells to represent a report object.
Microsoft Excel has a limit of 256 columns in a worksheet;
therefore, any report object (or part thereof) that is added to
cells beyond 256 columns is not exported.
This export format retains most of the formatting, but it does
not export line and box objects from your report.

Microsoft Word
(RTF)

Select this to export the report in Microsoft Word (RTF) format.


This is a page-based, exact format that produces an RTF (Rich
Text Format) file.
The exported file contains text and drawing objects to
represent report objects. Individual objects are placed in text
frames.
This format is intended for use in applications such as fill-out
forms where the space for entering text is reserved as empty
text objects.
Almost all of the formatting is retained in this export format.
Text objects cannot, however, be placed outside the left edge
of the page. Therefore, if you have text objects in your report
that are placed before the left edge of the printable area, they
will be pushed right. (This is most noticeable in reports with
wide pages.)

Text (TXT)

Select this to export the report to a plain text file.

Export destination

You use this field to enter the location in which the report must
be saved.
You need to specify the full pathname and the file name to
which the report must be exported. The filename cannot
contain any characters that are reserved characters to XML,
such as: ' : & ' > <.

OK

Select this to save your entries and to return to the previous


screen.

Cancel

Select this to ignore any entries you made and to return to the

GIT Supply Warehouse Validation


You use the GIT Supply Warehouse Validation program to produce a report indicating whether the
warehouse supply chain structure you have created is valid.
If the report contains no entries, then this indicates that the warehouse supply chain you have defined is
valid.
Invalid warehouse supply chain structures (i.e. looping structures) are listed on the report so that corrective
action can be taken.
Although you can run this program manually from the Goods in Transit menu, you are prompted to run this
program whenever you make changes to your supply chain details.

Field

Values

All source whs in chain are transfer supplied items

In a SYSPRO supply chain there must be one (1)


warehouse that is the manufacturing or buying
warehouse (i.e. there must be one warehouse that
is itself not supplied by another warehouse).This
top level warehouse is usually the warehouse
specified at the Warehouse to use field against the
stock item, but it can be any warehouse assigned to
the stock item which is not transfer supplied.

Warehouse is transfer supplied, but not linked to


the chain

You can create more than one supply chain for the
same stock code. However, you cannot assign a
warehouse that is transfer supplied but not linked to
a valid supply chain for the stock item.

Wh is transfer supplied and source warehouse not


found

If a warehouse is defined as transfer supplied


but you do not specify a source warehouse,
the program attempts to establish this from the
Warehouse Move Matrix program.This message
indicates that there is no entry for the target
warehouse in the matrix.

Wh has at least more than one source whs

If a warehouse is defined as transfer supplied


but you do not specify a source warehouse,
the program attempts to establish this from the
Warehouse Move Matrix program.This message
indicates that the program has detected two or
more source warehouses defined against the same
target warehouse in the matrix.

GIT Exception Report


You use the GIT Exception Report program to print details of goods in transit exception transfers.
A goods in transit exception transfer occurs when a transaction is not marked as complete and the quantity
transferred from the source warehouse is less than the quantity received by the destination warehouse.
Note:

Transactions marked as complete are not printed on the report, regardless of whether the
quantities transferred are equal.
The reason for this is that if the transaction was marked as complete, then the necessary
adjustment or expense issue would have been processed and no further action would be
required.
Details of the destination warehouse are not reflected on the report if you have enabled the
option: Apply operator access control to destination warehouse on transfers OUT (Inventory
Setup) and you have been denied access to the destination warehouse (Operators).
