User Guide
This guide explains how to use the Scrap Reasons module.
1. Configuring Scrap Reasons
Before you can use the module, you must define the reasons for scrapping items.
- Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Scrap Reason.
- Click the Create button.
- Enter a descriptive Scrap Reason (e.g., "Spoiled Goods," "Damaged in Transit").
- Select the Account to which the value of the scrapped items will be posted.
- Click Save.
2. Creating a Scrap Order with a Reason
This module modifies the standard scrap order creation process.
- Navigate to Inventory > Operations > Scrap.
- Click Create to create a new scrap order.
- Fill in the standard fields: Product, Quantity, Location, and Scrap Location.
- A new mandatory field, Scrap Reason, will be visible on the form. Select the reason that best describes why you are scrapping the item.
- Click Save.
3. Validating the Scrap Order
Once you have created the scrap order, validate it to finalize the process.
- On the saved scrap order form, click the Validate button.
- The system will process the scrap, deduct the items from stock, and post the financial value of the scrapped items to the account linked to your chosen Scrap Reason.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the Scrap Reason field mandatory?
Yes. The module requires a scrap reason to be selected for every scrap order to ensure traceability and accurate financial postings.
2. Where can I see a summary of all scrapped items?
You can view the list of all scrap orders by navigating to Inventory > Operations > Scrap. This view includes the Scrap Reason field, which you can use to sort or group your data for analysis.
3. What happens if the account is not set for a Scrap Reason?
If the account is not configured for the selected scrap reason, the system will prevent you from validating the scrap order and raise a validation error.
4. Why do I not see my newly created Scrap Reason in the list?
Each scrap reason is tied to a specific company. If you have a multi-company setup, ensure that the scrap reason you created is associated with your current company.
