    Hi Naveen,

    The 40 lbs criteria is for a single unit of the item?  

    I had a customer who wanted heavy items to be kept at floor level locations, so we used a Product Filter = heavy for these items which was used as a criteria for a Purchase Order <Put> location directive (or Inventory Movement Location Directive). The lower level locations shared a Location Profile "Lower Level" to which these "heavy" items were directed.  Simple and worked great.

    Regards,

    Hi Danny,

    Thanks for the response .

    Yes . The 40 lbs criteria is for a single unit of the item.

    Can you please suggest any document or link to achieve this product filter code steps .

    I want brief information on this from scratch so that I can do setup accordingly in my system .

    Thanks

    Hello Naveen,

    You need to decide which Product Filter code will be used for what purpose. In my case, say that I decide that product filter code 1 will be used to determine where the locations to be used for a <put> work during Purchase Order reception. 

    So I would create a new Product Filter Code 1 = Heavy

    Then I would assign this value to all relevant items so that I can use that criteria to select which Location Directive will be used:

    Then for the related Loaction Directive, I would add this new criteria indicating that this Location Directive is used when <Code 1 = Heavy>.  In the Location Directive Actions, the query would also point to a specific Location, range of locations or Location Profile.  Note that the sequence number would have to be low enough so that the system consider the criteria before other Location Profile.  By this I mean that  system examines each location directives sequentially until it finds a Location Directive that qualifies, so you will want the more restrictive queries lower in the sequence so that system considers them before the less restrictive criteria.

    Here is a sample of Query at the Location Directive "header".

    Hope that helps,

    Hi Naveen,

    The setup I described is just to direct the 40 Lb items to the desired locations; directed put away using a filter code as a criteria. If your Location Directives are sequenced properly, other Filter Codes should not be directed using that Location Directive.  If you want that logic to apply to Inventory Movement work or Finished Goods put-away work (any type of directed put work), you will need to replicate that Location Directive set-up for these work types.  

    When you say <But filter codes going in same locations>, nothing will not prevent a worker to move (using movement function) an item with a different code into locations that should be reserved for the 40 lbs items.  There is no standard functionality to limit use of a location to an item or items that share a property.  In your Location Profiles, you can prevent mixing items (or inventory status) in a location.  But that is the extent of it.

    Hope that clarifies this point.

    Regards,

    Danny
