Batch disposition status

View or select the disposition status, which identifies whether the batch is available to be issued from inventory. When you select a status, fields in the Sales, Transfer, Production, and Master planning groups are automatically set to the default values. However, you can change the default values to meet your particular business requirements.

For example, if you select only the Block reservation check box under the Sales group, inventory batches using this disposition code cannot be reserved to sales orders. However, the shipping and picking processes for sales orders can use these inventory batches.

The batch disposition status values are Available and Unavailable (default). If you select:

  • Available, the Sales, Transfer, and Production check boxes on the Setup FastTab are cleared, and the Nettable check box is selected.

  • Unavailable, the Sales, Transfer, and Production check boxes on the Setup FastTab are selected, and the Nettable check box is cleared by default.
