Exercise 1 - Get a better understanding of volumes and strengths

  1. Create a new item with template 450 Finished products - beer
    • Description = your initials
    • Base UOM = CASE
    • On the Foundation FastTab, fill in following fields:
      • Unit Volume = 6L
      • Net Weight = 6KG
      • Gross Weight = 7KG
      • Strength ABV = 40%
      • Consumption Unit of Measure = BOTTLE;
      • Qty. Consumption Units per Base UOM = 6
      • Default Transport Unit = PAL
      • Qty. Base UOM per Transport Unit = 40
  2. Inspect the page and search for Volume fields
    • There are three Unit Volume fields available. This exercise is about the Unit Volume and Unit Volume UOM.
    • The Unit Volume field is from the Base Application. It is the primary volume for a company. In the Drink-IT Foundation setup, it is the Unit Volume UOM.
    • The Unit Volume UOM field is added by Drink-IT Foundation. It is the additional reporting volume (secondary volume). In the Drink-IT Foundation Setup, it is the Add. Rep. Unit Volume UOM field.
  3. Open the Item Units of Measure
    • Change Qty. per Unit of Measure for PAL to 50 and L to 7.
    • Check the values on the Item Card.
    • Change the Unit Volume back to 6.
    • Check the values in the Item Units of Measure.
  4. Post a positive adjustment for your item in the Item Journal
    • Quantity = 100
    • Location = BLUE-BOND
    • Add following fields by Personalization:
      • Volume L
      • Volume HL
      • Strength ABV
      • Tot. ABV * L
  5. Check the Item Ledger Entry that was created by your posting
    • Add following fields by Personalization, if not shown:
      • Volume L
      • Volume HL
      • Strength ABV
      • Tot. ABV * L
  6. Create a Sales Order and post the shipment
    • Customer = 20000
    • Item = your item
    • Quantity = 20 (Cases)
    • Add following fields by Personalization, if not shown:
      • Unit Volume
      • Volume L
      • Volume HL
      • Strength ABV
