Performing a Miscellaneous Issue is used when you need to increase the number of parts in a Warehouse. Situations that would warrant this transaction:
- Parts have been found that do not show being in the warehouse on-hand balance
- Parts were used internally by your company and then being returned to stock
- A salesperson borrowed parts for a customer demonstration and is now returning to stock
1. Navigate to the Main Application Menu and select the Issues/Returns option from the Inventory module.
2. The Issue Parts form will be displayed. Fill in the information in the header section of this form; see the data entry field definitions on the next page.
