Values
When receiving stocks into the warehouse, values are sometimes essential for customs purposes or for insurance reasons, however you can receipt and hold awaiting values.
If you choose this option to receipt the stock then it will be frozen with the reason “Awaiting Values”.
Only using this option can you unfreeze the stock, and in order to do it you must enter the values.
In the search criteria section, you can provide any information related to the pre-advice you’re looking for and click search to retrieve it.
Here you can set the purchase values for stock receipted without them, allowing the stocks to be ordered.
The frozen stock can be moved but never despatched on an order until the values are entered.
To add values, click the 'Add Values' button on the right side of each pre-advice line.
You will be directed to another screen where you can set values for a specific item, then save the values and Unfreeze.
Receipt advice email updated to new HTML format, request the values from the customer if there are any lines without values.
If the new ‘Freeze & Retrieve Later’ tickbox in the pre-advice screen is ticked, a link will be provided in the receipt advice email where the user can click a link to upload the invoice and/or enter values directly into the VCIS.
Where VCIS user-submitted values can be autoloaded and approved or manually entered by the goods in controller.
