Material Request Queue

Typically, if someone has already moved or issued the material through other means (i.e. issued the material to the job when it was in the receiving warehouse before the queue was processed) then you can delete the queue entry.

In your case, it sounds as if people have been doing that, so processing the queues at this point would create problems so yeah I would delete them.

You can avoid the queue by unchecking the "Request Move" checkbox wherever you see it on forms. When the request move is checked, it indicates that you want the material to go into the queue. If it's unchecked, it will go directly to its intended destination without going into the queue.

We have our people trained to make sure it's not checked and then we monitor the queue end of day each day to make sure something didn't accidentally get in there.

For those of you who have AMM, how do you use the Material Request
Queue?



What I'm trying to ask is, I see no real application for it? What am I
missing?





Thanks.

The purpose makes sense, but we don't use it either.

Basically, if you had a large facility or multiple buildings you'd likely have a receiving dock where parts are received and then sit until they're moved to their eventual destination.

You'd also potentially have a parts runner who's job is to move parts around. The runner would bring up the queue and see what parts are there and where they're destined and then move them physically and mark it as moved by processing the queue lines.

But like you say, for us right now, we try to avoid items going in there and monitor it to make sure nothing gets stranded in there that shouldn't.

Thank you.... We have a ton of stuff in there. Is it safe to just
delete it all? It's not doing anything for us......

The purpose makes sense, but we don't use it either.

Basically, if you had a large facility or multiple buildings you'd
likely have a receiving dock where parts are received and then sit until
they're moved to their eventual destination.

You'd also potentially have a parts runner who's job is to move parts
around. The runner would bring up the queue and see what parts are
there and where they're destined and then move them physically and mark
it as moved by processing the queue lines.
