 Shelf Life Expiration Date Check for Materials W/o Batch Mgmt Reqmt

Use

The following functions are supported when a material is not handled in batches:

  • Entry and Check Upon Goods Receipt

  • Printout on Goods Receipt/Issue Slip

Features

Entry and Check upon Goods Receipt

If the expiration date check function is active, you must enter the shelf life expiration date or the production date of the material at the time of the goods receipt.

Upon goods receipt, the system checks whether the remaining shelf life is sufficient to satisfy the remaining shelf life required in the purchase order or in the material master record. If it is not, the system issues a warning message or error message (depending on how the system is configured).

When you post the goods receipt, the shelf life expiration date is recorded in the material document.

Printout on Goods Receipt/Issue Slip

The expiration date is printed on the goods receipt/issue slip.

If the Warehouse Management system ( LE-WM ) is active, the expiration date is recorded in the transfer requirement, in the transfer order, and in the quant. In this case, the printed transfer order serves as a pallet note.
