Create Inventory Restriction Codes
A restriction code configures the transactions that are to be restricted. Depending on the situation, you can configure a restriction code to restrict any combination of inbound, outbound and movement transactions.
Multiple restriction codes can be configured for the same transactions. When multiple restriction codes are applied to an item-variant package/lot/serial, the combination of all restricted transactions from the selected restriction codes will be applied.
When inventory is restricted from a specific transaction, you will receive an error upon posting of the transaction.
A restriction code can be configured to restrict the following inbound and outbound inventory transactions:
- Sales
- Purchase
- Negative Adjustment
- Positive Adjustment
- Manufacturing
- Assembly
A restriction code can also be configured to restrict the following warehouse transactions:
- Location Transfers
- Bin Movements
