You can create general allocations in the Item Usage Detail frame of CAR. Usually, you are recording items you already used and you issue the items immediately, so this step is not needed. Use it only if you are not issuing inventory immediately.

You can designate specific inventory to be issued, by site, location, lot/serial number, and reference. The system uses the information only for the inventory issue. CAR always performs general allocations. It does not detail allocate even if you enter inventory detail in the multi-items frame.

The system creates MRP requirements in CAR to reflect the quantity of items you specify. These requirements are deleted as soon as the inventory is issued. The required date for MRP is the call’s next status date.
