IV82598: MAXIMO ALLOWS BIN TO BIN TRANSFER THROUGH INVENTORY APPLICATION TO A STAGING BIN.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Maximo will allow bin to bin transfer through Inventory
  Application --> Select Action --> Transfer Current Item to an
  INVBALANCE record where STAGINGBIN = 1.
  
  If INVBALANCES.CURBAL is updated on a STAGINGBIN = 1 and the
  STAGED Usage Document is COMPLETE or CANCELLED, the INVBALANCES
  record is deleted with INVBALANCES.CURBAL > 0.
  
  Steps to Reproduce:
  
  1. Go To --> Inventory --> Inventory Usage
  2. Click the "New Inventory Usage" icon.
  3. Input CENTRAL in the "From Storeroom" field.
  4. Input ISSUE in the "Usage Type" field.
  5. Click the "Select Reserved Items" button.
  6. Place a checkmark next to an item such as TEX115 and click
  ok.
  7. Click on the "Change Status" icon.
  8. Set "New Status" to STAGED and click the option "Enter a new
  stage bin number for use by all rows that will be staged" and
  enter TESTSTG in the "Stage Bin:" field and click OK.
  9. Click on the "Detail Menu" button directly to the right of
  the "Item" field under "Usage Lines".
  10. Once in the detail menu, Go To --> Inventory. (Take note of
  the "Current Balance"/"Quantity Available" of the Item in
  Inventory.)
  11. Once in the Inventory application, Select Action -->
  Transfer Current Item
  12. On the "Transfer Current Item" set "Quantity" to 1 (or
  higher)
  13. Input CENTRAL into the "To Storeroom:" field.
  14. Input TESTSTG into the "To Bin:" field. (An error message
  should be displayed here indicating that a staging bin cannot
  be used in this transaction)
  15. Click OK.
  16. Note that on the "Inventory Balance" section on the
  Inventory Record that TESTSTG now has Staged Balance and
  Current Balance.
  17. Click on the "Return" link at the top of the Inventory
  Application to return to Inventory Usage.
  18. Once back in Inventory Usage, click on the "Change Status"
  icon.
  19. Change the status to COMPLETE. Click OK.
  20. Click on the "Detail Menu" button directly to the right of
  the "Item" field under "Usage Lines"
  21. Once in the detail menu, Go To --> Inventory.
  22. Once back in the Inventory Application, you will now see
  that the Inventory Balance record has been deleted.
  
  When INVBALANCES.STAGINGBIN = 1, INVBALANCES.CURBAL should not
  be allowed to be updated.  Error message should be reflected
  and consistent with Inventory Usage stating the Bin Selected is
  a Staging Bin when trying to transfer the item to the Staging
  Bin.
