Scrap goods

1. Pick or scan the location the goods are written off from. Scanning a location barcode jumps straight to the scrap lines; otherwise choose one from the searchable list of internal locations.

2. Scan each product to scrap: a plain barcode adds one unit. With a GS1 parser installed, a GS1 label also gives its lot/serial and its piece count (AI 30/37); a net weight on the label is not taken as the quantity. Scanning the same product and lot again adds to its line. Tap “+” to add a product by hand; with no search it lists what the location holds. Only goods can be scrapped, as in the back office: services are not offered.

3. Each line shows how much of it the location holds. Adjust the quantity if needed.

4. Choose the scrap reasons and tap Scrap. A reason that does not exist yet can be created on the spot with New reason, as the back office’s reason field allows; typing the name of an existing one (in any case) picks that one instead of creating a duplicate.

Lots and serial numbers

A lot is found by its exact name: lots whose names differ only in case are different lots. A name typed in another case finds its lot only when it names a single one.

A lot/serial-tracked product needs its lot/serial: read from the GS1 label, or typed into the line, which suggests the lots stored in that location. When the location holds a single lot of the product, it is filled in. A serial number is scrapped one unit at a time and can only appear once.

Stock shown and not enough stock

The quantity each line shows is what a scrap made from the scanner can take: the net quantity at the location itself, outside packages and not owned by a partner, as validating the scrap counts it. Goods in a package or owned by a partner are scrapped from the back office, where the scrap takes a package and an owner.

When a line asks for more than that, nothing is scrapped yet: the scanner lists what is short and asks whether to scrap anyway — the same choice the back office offers through its insufficient-quantity wizard. Confirming scraps the lines it was asked about; lines changed in between are checked again.

Destination

The goods go to the scrap location the back office preselects for the company, and can be sent to any scrap location of the company or a shared one instead. When the company has none of its own, the first shared one is taken; with no scrap location at all, scrapping waits until one is created.

Reading more from a label

The quantity a scan stands for comes from ScrapScreen.scannedQuantity(scan, productUomId): the piece count, or one unit. A module that reads more from a label (a GS1 net weight, say) can patch it to convert that into the product’s unit, as barcode_stock offers with its own scannedQuantity.
