P/N Initial Multi Load

The P/N Initial Multi Load option allows the user to initially load more than one part at a time into Inventory (only consigned or managed parts). This feature is used to load a large quantity of parts belonging to a customer or a vendor. These parts will be managed and/or used by your company's Inventory department until issued or otherwise removed from TRAX.

Note: This differs from the PN Initial Load option where the user can only initially load one part at a time into Inventory.

A new P/O will be created and closed automatically to capture this transaction. For more information refer to Purchasing and Issuing Consigned Parts (P/Os) via the Inventory Training Manual.
