IC500


IC500 - Transaction Interface

**Form Purpose
Run Transaction Interface (IC500) to import inventory transactions from an
input file. IC500 can take input from a table as well as a flat file.

You can run IC500 to process files uploaded by the handheld terminal and
routed to IC500 by IC588 (Handheld Processing). To process handheld terminal
transactions, you must set up IC500 jobs and parameters according to the
requirements for handheld processing. For details of preparing IC500 for
handheld processing, see the Inventory Control User Guide.

IC500 prints a list of transactions with fatal errors, such as invalid
location or item number. It updates transactions with nonfatal errors, such as
insufficient stock-on-hand quantities or lots on hold, to the appropriate
transaction form as unreleased transactions. You can correct and then release
transactions with nonfatal errors to the Inventory Control application.

**Processing Effect
IC500 uses the same logic used in several inventory transaction forms to
process the input transactions: receipts (IC20), issues (IC21), transfers
(IC22), intransit receiving (IC23), and adjustments (IC24). IC500 updates
successfully processed transactions to the appropriate transaction form(s),
Then, it releases the transactions to the Inventory Control application and
immediately updates inventory stock-on-hand quantities.
