Issue Codes

< Previous section | Table of Contents | Index | Next section >

Issue Codes specify reasons for issuing items from your inventory. The most common case, of course, is when an item is issued for use on a work order. However, there are other situations in which you may issue materials from your inventory. For example, a rental management company might issue inventory items directly to tenants for simple jobs that the tenants can do on their own (e.g. changing light bulbs). You might also remove materials from inventory in this way if they are being given to another department.

Note: Issue codes are used for inventory issues. For further information on inventory issues, see Inventory Issues.

The Issue Code table is a simple table; for more information, see Simple Tables. You access the Issue Code browser with Inventory —> Tables —> Issues. Entries in the Issue Code table consist of:

Code: A unique identifier code (10 characters maximum)
Description: A description of the reason for issuing (30 characters maximum)

For example, a code might be TENANT and the description might be GIVEN TO TENANT.
