Committed Inventory

The Committed Inventory inquiry option allows users to view all lots that have lot commitments. By viewing commitments, users can determine whether a portion of a particular lot has been committed and by which transaction.

In the system, three transactions commit inventory:

opening a work order and specifying the raw material lots to be used
entering sales orders with lotted items or individually lot-costed items and designating the lot from which the inventory is to be shipped.
open planned transfers for lotted or individually-lot costed items.

Committed inventory can never be used for any other purpose. Completing work orders, shipping orders, and completing planned transfers remove the commitment. Shipped and invoiced sales orders will appear on the inquiry until the item is costed in Cost of Goods Sold. Items will remain on the committed inventory inquiry for all lots on inventory hold until the hold is released and the items are costed.
