Item Maintenance - Case Repacks

This option should be selected if you are interested in keeping an accurate on-hand stock count for any cases that are broken down into smaller sales units. The number of cases broken down will be deducted from the 'Stock On Hand' count for that Item. The number of re-packs added into stock, made available for sale, are added to the 'Stock On Hand' count for the re-packs created from the breakdown. Two finalized Store Transfers will be made from this operation automatically.  The first will be a 'Transfer Out' from the store of the Cases Broken.  The Second will be a 'Transfer In' to the Store of the re-packs created from the breakdown. The date set on the calendar is set on the Transfers. It is important that this date be accurate or this will throw out your Period Reporting figures.  A report of these Transfers can be obtained from the Inventory/Reports section, or viewed and edited through the Item's Transfers history. Find and select the parent item that you wish to break down, and edit the item. Select the 'Repack' Tab option in the Item Editor This displays the Case Repack form. Enter the amount of cases that you are breaking down in the 'Open Cases' box. Enter the amount of re-packs you are creating in the 'To Make ' box. Enter the PLU or Shelf Code for the re-packs in the 'For Item PLU' box. (Entering the UPC/PLU entry box will bring up a list of all items to select from.)  The UPC/PLU can be typed in or selected from the list. Check the date is correct on the Calendar for the time that this particular transfer occured. (Many stores fill out a daily 'Breakdown sheet' which is then entered into this section for each item on the sheet.)  Click the date line to see the pop up calendar. Select a Date from the calendar and click 'OK' on it to set the date on the form. When you click on the 'OK' button on the break case form, the re-packs will be looked up on the system and the dollar values calculated and displayed. A confirmation will be displayed when the program has completed it's routines. You will then be returned to the Item Maintenance form. The numbers and PLU entered will then be remembered for the next time you break a case. That will make the entries faster next time, as all you have to do then, is enter the new Case and Pack quantities, without having to remember the re-pack code.
