FAQ

Q. It will not move to the next step. Check that you tapped Select on an item and that the process quantity is not 0.

Q. It says Allocated quantity exceeds the process quantity. The total quantity split across warehouses is larger than the process quantity. Reduce the quantities by warehouse so the total matches.

Q. It says The process date cannot be later than today. or that the process date cannot be earlier than the planned date. Choose today or an earlier date. For new registrations, the inbound date (outbound date) cannot be earlier than the planned date, so check the planned date and inbound date (outbound date) together.

Q. For outbound, it says Material information is missing. Outbound handles registered materials only. Ask someone to check on the office PC admin screen that the material is registered in New Item Registration.

Q. I tapped Save, but the completion screen did not appear. The save was rejected. Check the error message on the screen and save again.
