Split External Orders

In some cases, external orders contain products with different expiry dates. When this occurs, you must split the order into smaller groupings to differentiate by expiry date after an order has been received.

Example: An external order requests 200 oral rinse bottles. After the order has been received, you see that half the bottles have an expiry date of Nov. 2018 and half have an expiry date of Dec. 2018. You must split the order into two orders, divided by their expiry dates.

To split an external order:

  1. Open the Inventory module and click the Received tab.
  2. Enter the appropriate search criteria and click Search.
  3. Right-click an order and select Split Received Product to display the Split Received Product window.

  4. In the Split Receipt pane, complete the following:
    1. In the Quantity field, enter a value less than the value in the Original Receipt pane > Quantity field.

      2. The values in the Split Receipt pane > Balance and Total Cost fields reflect your change.

    2. From the Expiry Date field, select the correct date the product(s) will expire on.
  5. Click OK to close the Split Received Product window.

    6. The order appears twice In the Received tab and in the Quantity column reflects the change in values for each order.
