Feature - Warehouse Receiving Posting to Optionally Create a CSV File

Release date: 5/1/2021

Version 8.5 & Up

In PO -> Processing -> Warehouse Receiving Process, the user can now optionally create a CSV file upon the posting of PO Warehouse Receiving. To enable this feature, you need to go to Global Setup --> Dist --> PO Warehouse Receiving:

    12. Create CSV Upon PO Whse Receiving Posting?

The default value is "N." See sample screen below:

If you enter "Y," the following window will appear:

This screen shows the layout of the CSV file that will be created is as follows:  

• PO Number
• PO Line Number
• Product Code (i.e., Item Number)
• Quantity
• Import Date
• Serial Number
• Status - Hard code to "A" at this moment

You will specify the file name and path for the CSV file. Note that the date and time masks are supported. Let's say right now is 05/04/2021 10:17:30AM. The following mask will be transformed to corresponding values:

• YYYYMMDD: 20210504
• YYMMDD: 210504
• YYMM: 2105
• HHMMSS: 101730

So the above example will cause the creation of f:\nsi..pjt\85\dlm\rzanwms\qr20210504101730.CSV. The mask can be part of the file name or path. It's optional for you to use it. During the process of creating this CSV file, if the file does not exist, the system will create the file with a TMP extension first. After it is done, the system will then rename the TMP file to a CSV file. On the other hand, if the CSV file already exists, then the system will append to the existing CSV file.

The "Only Send Serialized Items in this CSV File?" flag by default is "N." If you set it to "Y," then only serialized records will be exported to the CSV file -- one serial record per line and the quantity will always be 1 (one).
