How the model is organised

Organizations, team members and Users identify the operating group and people; storage locations belongs to an organization.

Stock identity

Stock items identifies the SKU; stock lots carries the item and storage location; pallet custody carries handling-unit identity and current owner.

Work and effect

Stock requests is the parent for stock movements, operation receipts, review decisions and record attachments; stock reservations links a request to a lot.

Transport context

Loads contains carrier and dock detail; load stops connects a load to a location and appointment.

Keys and references

A pallet code identifies a handling unit. A request record number identifies authorized work. Movement records link to their parent request and may link to a lot; a reversal points to the movement it compensates. Review decisions and operation receipts link back to the request. A team member links an organization to a platform user. Use these relationships when importing history or tracing an exception.
