Reason Codes Maintenance (WHS0080)

Reason Codes are two character abbreviations used to describe why a particular action within the system has been taken.  For example, reason codes needs to be entered for every stock adjustment, hold and pick adjustment. 

Whether a reason code is to be used to hold stock or not, determines whether the hold code flags are set to Y or N.

Note:

• The codes used to describe an adjustment must be clearly understood by the operational staff as the Description entered here is not shown throughout all of  the screens during processing.
• The G/B field determines whether a reason code is good or bad.  This functionality is mainly used within Sales Order Processing (Proof of Delivery) to determine whether stock should be written off or not.
• The user may see a different layout to this screen than the one shown here.  This is based on a Program level registry setting ‘WHS Layout Visible’ under WHS0080.  The versions shown here is the generic screen.
