Create Inventory Restriction Codes

Create the restriction codes, which determine the transactions that are blocked for items associated with the code. You can configure a restriction code to restrict any combination of inbound, outbound and movement transactions.

Multiple restriction codes can be created for the same transactions. When multiple restriction codes are applied to inventory, the combination of all restricted transactions from the selected restriction codes will be applied.

When inventory is restricted from a specific transaction, you will receive an error when trying to post of the transaction.

A restriction code can be configured to restrict the following inbound and outbound inventory transactions:

• Sales
• Purchasing
• Negative Adjustments
• Positive Adjustments
• Manufacturing
• Assembly

A restriction code can also be configured to restrict the following warehouse transactions:

• Location Transfers
• Bin Movements
