Item Usage Detail
Setting the Det field to Yes in the Item Usage frame displays the Item Usage Detail frame. Multi (Y/N) Defaults to No unless the quantity used is greater than 1 and the item being issued was defined in the Item Master with Lot/Serial Control set to S. If Yes, a detail frame appears enabling you to enter a site, lot/serial, and location, and reference for each item consumed. Note that the records created as a result of executing this frame are not the same as detail allocation; they simply record detail about the items to be consumed.
Unit Cost is a display-only field showing the cost for one unit of the item being issued. Cost is derived from the site specified for the item being repaired, which is not necessarily the site from which the component is issued. During CAR processing, any items from alternate sites are transferred to the call item site and issued from there. The inventory transfer creates a GL transaction for any variance in costs between the two sites, before the item is issued.
Price defaults from the price list specified in the CAR header, unless this is a fixed price repair. For fixed price repairs, prices for individual details default to zero and cannot be changed.
