Store Materials in Resource#

Material.Store

Overview#

This operation is used to store a Material in a storage Resource (from the perspective of the Resource).

To store a Material at a given Step and Resource, it is necessary to:

Define a storage Service for Queued or Processed Materials in the Step. The Service to use will match the Material System State.
Have at least one Resource with the Storage Service defined above for Queued or Processed Material.

The Material exists and it is Active.
The Material is a Top Most Material (it has no parent).
The Material is not In Transit or In Store.
The Material is currently not associated with any Resource.
The Resource must have the Processing Type set to Storage and it must be Dispatchable.
The Resource must have the Position Unit Type set to Material.
The Material is either in the Queued or Processed state and a corresponding Queued Storage Service or Processed Storage Service is defined at the current Material Step; that Queued Storage Service or Processed Storage Service is enabled globally and it is enabled at the Resource.
If the Resource property Track Positions is true, the Used Positions count must be less than the Total Positions count. Also, if the position addresses are not automatically generated, you must provide a valid address and the specified position must be within the defined bounds for the different storage dimensions.
If the Resource property Is Product Mix Allowed is false, the Material must have the same Product as other Materials already associated with the Resource.

Choose a valid Resource and select Material from the Store button on the top ribbon.
Choose the Material to be stored by one of several available methods:
Select to add a new Material by scanning a barcode through an available webcam.
Select to add a new Material through text entry or using a barcode reader.
Select to add a new Material through text entry or search.
Select to remove an previously selected Material.
If the Resource property Track Positions is true, provide a valid position. Note that in this case the provided position address must be compliant with the defined Resource position address format.
If the Resource has any Storage Bins configured, a Storage Bin must be specified. A flag can be set to show only the Storage Bins marked with the Preferred Storage Location flag.
Select Store to complete the transaction.
