How do I take material from my stock with an internal supply order?
With an internal supply order you request material from your own stock, for example to get it ready for a site or to take it to another stock location. There is no supplier: your warehouse delivers. The other types of supply orders are explained in Supply orders | General.
Creating an internal supply order
You create an internal supply order from a template of the Intern type. You can do this in several ways:
- from the overview of your supply orders, via Add (+), or from a project via the plus sign next to 'Supply orders' in the Overview block
- with Quick order, by choosing a template of the Intern type. Everything then ends up on one internal supply order.
- from your stock reservations. Robaws then uses the template you choose in the settings at Default Internal supply order.
- from a supply order, via the plus sign next to 'Delivery note intern' in the Overview block. Robaws takes over what has been received and is not yet on an internal supply order. That way you immediately take what came in to the site.
- in the Wappy app, via Request material. See Wappy | Requesting material.
Filling in the internal supply order
Field | Explanation |
|---|---|
Date | The date of the internal supply order. |
Ready when | By when the material has to be ready. |
from, to | Where the material comes from and where it has to go. Type the address or use the button next to it to choose a fixed address from the settings. |
Move to location, to Location | Switch this on if you move the material to another stock location, and choose the location. |
Consider completed | Tick this if the rest will never be delivered. |
On the lines you choose the item, the project and, if applicable, the order and the quantity. An item is always in its stock unit: the unit on the item file. You cannot change it here, because your stock is kept in that unit. You can read more about units in Working with unit types. The price is the cost price of the item.
In the Delivered column you see what has already been delivered. If you work without stock changes, you fill that in yourself. For this, Allow manual modification of received (internal order) has to be switched on in the settings. It is switched on by default.
Not enough stock yourself?
Is there material on an internal supply order that you do not have (enough of) yourself? Then click the Quick order action button, or select lines and choose Quick order with the right mouse button. That way you order it from your suppliers. You see that action button as long as the internal supply order is not considered completed.
In the recalculation
An internal supply order counts in the recalculation of your project as a realised cost: the material comes from your own stock. Robaws calculates with the quantity or with what has been delivered, according to the Strategy calculation of internal orders setting. An internal supply order with Move to location does not count.
