This topic explains how to create disposition codes for the inbound receiving process. Disposition codes are a collection of rules that are used when damaged items are received. For example, when a work user uses a mobile device to receive items that were damaged, the user must scan a disposition code for damaged items. Microsoft Dynamics AX uses the disposition codes to generate an inventory status and a work template, and then searches for the location directive with the same disposition code to determine where to put away the returned items.

  1. Click Warehouse management > Setup > Mobile device > Disposition codes.

  2. Click New to create a disposition code.

  3. In the Inventory status field, select the inventory status of the received items.

  4. In the Work template code field, select a work template code that is associated with a work order type, return order, or purchase order. You assign a work template to a disposition code only when you want to override the work template.

  5. In the Return disposition code field, select a return disposition code for a sales return order.

    Note

    After you select a Return disposition code, the disposition code is applicable only for the sales order return process.
