Medical Numbers & Temperature Monitoring

INTRODUCTION

This document describes the required screens to be used in the Medical numbers configuration and processes. Other guides describe the set up of company, user, warehouse, stock etc.

This is a generic guide based on the version of the SCE system at the time of writing.

It can also be used by clients to specify their specific data values to aid initial system set up as well as for future reference.

Note that fields marked '**’ are mandatory and are needed to ensure correct set up of the system.


SET-UP

Note – Within the contents of this document both Serial and Medical Numbers are one and the same.

Pre-requisites (Owner Maintenance Setup)

Goods Receipt Pre Advice - WHS0110

GRA2.png

When pallet details are entered, if the owner/ stock code is set for inbound serial number entry at pre-advice, then the serial number entry screen WHS0200 will be displayed. Serial numbers can then be entered at this stage, if required. If serial numbers are not available at this time, then the serial number entry can be skipped and entered at receipt confirmation.

A Serials button will re-call the serial number entry screen to allow corrections to be done to the entered serial numbers.


WHS0200 – Medical Number Entry

MED-012.PNG


The serial numbers can be entered by entering a range of serial numbers and then using the 'Create Range’ button or by entering individual serial numbers.

The Tick boxes can be used to select serial numbers. A total expected and a total entered will display the total serial numbers entered.

This screen will include a scrollbar and display a single column of serial numbers. This will allow us to display error messages next to any serial numbers that fail validation. The new screen layout is displayed above.

Button functionality

Button Description
Create Range To create a range of serial numbers.
Delete Range To delete a range of serial number.
Delete Selected To delete any selected serial numbers.
Re-sequence To re-sequence the serial numbers into numeric sequence.
Reset To restore the original set of serial numbers.
Confirm To confirm all serial numbers have been entered and return to the calling screen.


WHR0110_SER Blind Check Sheet

MED-013.PNG

The number of expected serial numbers will be either the number of units or the number of cases depending upon the owner/stock code set-up.

A line of dashes, '_____________________’, will be printed for each expected serial number.

Goods Receipt Confirmation – Pallet Details

To call the Serial number option, right click in to the field and a drop down menu will be displayed to enter the new serial numbers.

MED-014.PNG

If serial numbers have been entered at the pre-advice stage then the serial numbers screen will be used to capture a second set of serial numbers. The new serials will be cross-checked against the original entered serial numbers at pre-advice for any discrepancies.

Goods Receipt Confirmation – Pallet Details (Discrepancies)

The user may either click the Confirm option from the left hand option box from here, or may do it from the previous details screen. The system will then inform the user that the GRN has been confirmed.

Note Note: If the number of pallets entered at confirmation is different than expected at advice, the user will be shown a warning message asking them if they still wish to confirm.

MED020.PNG

If there are no differences, then receipt confirmation can continue, otherwise confirmation will not be allowed. As Below.

MED021.PNG

If a difference exists, then the user will be presented with the options to produce a discrepancy report or confirm the differences.

MED022.PNG

The discrepancy report will list receipt header details along with pallet/stock details and a list of the discrepancies between the serial numbers.

MED023.PNG

If the user tries to confirm the differences, they will be prompted for a password, and if entered correctly, the pre-advised serial numbers will be completely removed and the new set of serial numbers will be stored in their place. The confirmation process can then continue.

MED024.PNG

When an owner / stock code is set-up to enter serial numbers at receipt, checks will be included to prevent receipt confirmation if any of the stock codes on the receipt require serial numbers which have not been entered. An error message will be displayed, 'There is an incorrect number of serial numbers for line 001, detail line 001’ On Receipt Confirmation, the system writes the REC history records and HOLD records, if stock is held during putaway. At this point serial number 'REC’ and “HOLD’ history records will be written for every serial number on the GRN.

Putaway note displaying entered serial numbers

Monitor References


The screen will allow for additional reference numbers to be captured and to provide an additional audit trail, primarily used for med/serial number products.

Goods Receipt Header - Monitor Reference

The temperature monitor reference numbers will be entered and the current system date, time and user id will be captured.

Inventory Managements

Stock Movements

When a stock movement request is entered onto the system, for a serial number stock code, the serial number entry screen WHS0200 will be called to allow the entry of the serial numbers that are being moved.

When the Confirm button is pressed, an extra check will be included to ensure the correct quantity of serial numbers has been entered. If an incorrect quantity of serial numbers has been entered then an error message will be given and the user must correct the serial numbers.

A Serial Numbers button will allow the serial number entry screen to be called.

MED-028.PNG

The serial numbers can be highlighted and then allocated using the arrow buttons. To un-allocate a serial number again highlight and use the arrow button.

A total expected allocations and a total actual allocations will be displayed. The new screen layout is displayed above.

Button functionality

Button Description
Arrow Buttons To allocate or un-allocate selected serials

Pallet Movements

There is no need to enter the serial numbers, as ALL the serial numbers on the pallet will be moved to the new location.

Hold / Release

It is NOT be possible to hold / release individual serial numbers on a pallet. For serial number stock ALL the stock on the pallet must be held / released.

If not all the serial numbers on a pallet are to be held then the required serials will need to be moved to a new pallet by using stock movements. Likewise, if not all the held serial numbers on a pallet are to be released, then the required serial numbers can be moved, with their held status, onto a new pallet. Once on the new pallet, the serial numbers can be released.

The hold / release screen will be changed, for serial number stock, to set the number of cases & units automatically to all the cases and units on the pallet and to prevent the user changing the quantity.

Adjustments - WHS0633

This is the configurable stock adjustments screen.

WHS0633.png

You can use the Stock Adjustments screen to increase or decrease levels of stock within the warehouse.

Sales Order Entry – Detail

MED-036.PNG


The order header will be entered as normal, when the user enters the Sales Order Detail Lines screen; the line type will default to 'M’ for Medical/Serial Number entry. If the owner uses mainly serial number stock and requires serial numbers to be entered at order entry.

Note – It is possible to override the line type and select an alternative from the drop down list.

When this order line type M is used then the system will call the serial number entry screen after entry of each stock code on the order line. The serial numbers can be entered using the new serial number entry screen and the confirm button pressed. On return to the sales order entry screen, the number of cases & units ordered will be set based upon the number of serial numbers entered. If the stock code is set up to expect serial numbers at case level, then the ordered cases will be set to the number of serial numbers entered. If the stock code is set up to expect serial numbers at unit level, then the ordered cases will be set to 0 and the ordered units set to the number of serial numbers entered.

The serial number entry will not be allowed against an order if the serial number is already committed or the serial number is allocated to another order.

The owner / stock code set-up will be checked to decide whether it is possible to enter held serial numbers against an order.

If order line type M is entered for a stock code with 'Serial Numbering’ set to 'None’ then the line type will automatically be reset to 1 and the serial number entry screen will not be called.

Medical Number Entry


MED-037.PNG


The number of serials entered will equate to the number of units or cases dependent on owner/stock setup that are to be allocated to the order.

Serial or Medical numbers can be entered in the standard manner.


MED-038.PNG


The ordered case quantity field has now been updated with the total number of cases for the order, it is also possible to amend the quantity or the serials committed to the order by selecting the Serial No button.


Allocation and Pick Note

Additional Checker Signature


Serial/Medical Numbers

Allocation will be as per standard functionality using either the Order Allocation screen or the Pick Wave Maintenance screen.

A new format Pick list will be provided. This new format will display the serial numbers to be picked. The new format will include space for three signatories on the sheet to allow for a picker and two checkers to be recorded.


Pick Confirmation

MED-040.PNG


The serial number button from the pick confirmation detail screen will call the new serial/medical number entry screen, if the owner/ stock code is set-up to capture outbound serial numbers.

If serial numbers were entered during order entry then the serial numbers screen will be pre-populated by these serial numbers, provided they were at the correct status when allocated.

If the stock code is set up for 'Mandatory serial numbers’ at order entry or 'Outbound serial numbers’ is set to 'Capture at Pick’, then pick confirmation will be prevented if the number of serials entered does not match the number of serials expected.


De-allocation of Serial/Medical numbers


MED-041.PNG


If the number of cases / units picked is reduced to a non-zero quantity, then the serial number entry screen will be called automatically and will display the serial numbers allocated to the pick line. The user will need to select which serial numbers are to be removed from the order. The serials can be selected individually or all serials can be selected and set to Cancelled.


This screen is only called in the event of any exceptions or discrepancies, the arrow buttons are used to remove the serial numbers from the order. Once the number of serials matches the numbers of units on the order it will then be possible to pick confirm. At this point no further amendments will be allowed in this screen.


MED-042.PNG


The pick quantity must match the actual pick quantity of the serial numbers for the order to be confirmed. It is not possible to adjust an alternative serial numbered item onto an order once the order has been allocated. If there are any issues with the stock then it will either be sent out short picked or cancelled.


Packing

MED-050.PNG


There will be an option to capture the serial/medical numbers during the packing process which capture the serial number and the pack number.

MED-051.PNG


MED-044.PNG

As each container is packed, the details will be entered onto the system. For serial number stock, the serial number entry screen will be called to enter the serials packed into each container.


MED-049.PNG


If the SER format Packing List is set then serial numbers allocated to the order will be displayed on the packing list.


Packing – Monitor References

MED052a.PNG

The Order Packing screen will be changed to allow entry of three temperature monitor reference numbers, if the new warehouse rule, MONR, is set to P or Y.


MED053.PNG


Entry of the Monitor Reference details.


Despatch Confirmation

MED-054.PNG

The despatch confirmation process will be changed to do a final check that none of the serial numbers have been placed on hold. If any of the serial numbers have been held then an error will be given and despatch confirmation will not be allowed.

Similarly if there are any exceptions during despatch it is possible to down date the stock and remove the serials from the order. It is not possible to substitute stock serials at this point; instead a new order will need to be raised.


Expected Despatch against the Actual Despatch

MED-055.PNG


If the number of cases / units picked is down-dated to a non-zero quantity, then the serial number entry screen will be called and will display the serial numbers allocated to the pick line. The user will need to select which serial numbers are to be removed from the order. The serials can be selected individually or all serials can be selected and set to Cancelled.

This screen is only called in the event of any exceptions or discrepancies’, the arrow buttons are used to remove the serial numbers from the order. Once the number of serials matches the numbers of units on the order it will then be possible to Despatch confirm. At this point no further amendments will be allowed in this screen, as the order will be set to status 9 complete.


Despatch Print – WHS1910

MED-056.PNG

The standard FW1 despatch note print will also be amended to include Serial Numbers if allocated to an order.


RETURNS

MED-057.PNG

When a goods receipt pre-advice is entered onto the system with the type 'Return of Sales Order’, the return will be processed as any other receipt with the exception that when returned serial numbers are entered into the system they will be validated to ensure that they were despatched on that sales order.


INTER WAREHOUSE TRANSFERS

Stock for inter warehouse transfers will be placed on the system in the standard manner using the Inter Warehouse Transfer screen SOS1110.


MED-058.PNG

The order will then be allocated and picked as standard, but despatch will ran from the standard despatch screen WHS1910.


MED-059.PNG


Goods Received Advice


MED-060.PNG


As with the Inter Warehouse Transfer process, the receipt header will be created with a receipt type of 'Non purchase order’ and the supplier code will be set as the original warehouse id for the stock.

The temperature monitor reference numbers stored against the stock will also be transferred to the new receipt.

The process will also create receipt detail lines for each stock code on the order with the receipt quantity being set as the total amount being despatched for the order line in question.

Unlike the Inter Warehouse Transfer process, the process will create goods receipt pallet level information based on the pallets being despatched. The process will set the manufacture and sell by dates based on the pallet details being despatched.

The location codes, system rotation numbers and catch weights will not be transferred by the process. The user will be expected to enter these details at the goods receipt confirmation stage.

Finally, the process will create med number receipt records for the med numbers being despatched.


REWORK ITEMS

Sell by Date Entry - WHS0670

WHS0670-SBD.png

The sell by date entry screen will be changed to check the new owner rule, “Sell by Date History”, “SBDH”. If this rule is set to “Y” then any changes to the sell by date will cause the system to write a history record, which can then be viewed through the stock movement enquiries. This new history record will have a transaction type of 'DATE’.


As each line is updated, the audit text screen (WHS0629) will be called to allow a description for the change to be entered.

The owner / stock code set up will be checked to find if the pallet is for serial number stock. These records will be viewed through the new 'Serial Number History’ enquiry screen. (See below)

Once selected, the user will enter a single parameter for their selection e.g. a single GRN reference or single Serial number.

If the report type is GRN or Packing Number only the respective types will be displayed on the report. If Serial number or Temperature Monitor is entered, the user will be prompted to enter the transaction types to display with the following options:

  • GRN’s Only
  • Packing Details Only
  • Both GRN and Packing Details

On production, if a GRN or Pack Number is entered, the system will retrieve all of the Temperature Monitors associated with the GRN/Pack and details of all of the stock codes entered against that GRN/Pack

If a serial number or monitor is entered, then the GRN or Pack Number associated with the serial/monitor number will be retrieved, and then ALL of the details for the GRN/Pack will be displayed, as per the above. This may display more than the monitor selected if the GRN/Pack has multiple monitors associated with it.
