Enter the quantity with the +/ - buttons

When there is a limit to the quantity, there will be a ‘Maximum’ line in the under the + / - buttons. The entered quantity cannot exceed the quantity defined in the ‘Maximum’ line. The maximum quantity depends on the open quantity in the order (document) or the item quantity in stock.

Enter the quantity with the + / - buttons or with the numeric keypad. The value added by the buttons depend on the ‘Number of decimals for UoM’ setting for the item. Eg.: If the number of decimals is set for 2 for the UoM, then the added value will be 0.01. Under the quantity field, the system displays the unit of measurement.

It is also possible to scan the item barcode(s) to add quantity. Scan the barcode on the item(s) one by one. The system will check whether the barcode and the batch attributes of the item matches with the data of the item in the document. Only the items with matching data will be added as plus one to the quantity.
Press the right arrow button or 'Enter' to proceed.

Please note: In order to go back with the left arrow button, enter a value greater than zero.

Catch weight
Enter the weight with the + / - buttons or with the numeric keypad. When entering the weight, the system also displays the number of pieces under the Maximum quantity.

If the quantity is only defined by the weight, the maximum weight is calculated based on the number of items in the document, the weight of one item and the defined tolerance percentage.
If the quantity is defined by the number of items and the weight, the maximum weight is calculated based on the number of items entered previously, the weight of one item and the defined tolerance percentage.
