Overview
Sometimes customers need to track assets they haven't prepared themselves, in-house. This could include:
- Vendor owned cylinders that you re-distribute out to other customers
- Your owns cylinders that are sent out to a vendor to be cleaned, filled with gas, or packaged together
TrackAbout's Receive from Vendor (also often called Third Party Filling) is used to record the fact that assets have been received from an outside facility.
How it works
Your Receive From Vendor action will be configured to collect any combination of the following information:
- Product Code or Asset Family
- Lot Number - This can be set up to require or ignore format validation
- Ownership
- Volume
- Purchase Order
- Expiration Date
For clients using Use States, the Receive From Vendor action can be configured to set involved assets to the Use State you pre-define. Often customers use Receive From Vendor to set assets to "Full", "Ready", or "Full By Vendor"
