Pending Material Transactions

Use this form to view and delete material transactions which have been placed in Pending Material Transactions because they encountered error conditions during material transactions or as a result of production schedule complete transactions, JIT production transactions, work center labor transactions, or during backflushing. These transactions remain in Pending Material Transactions until you correct or delete them.

In most cases, you can correct the error that prevented posting and then re-post. If you need a hard copy of the errors, use the Pending Material Transactions Report. This report is also useful if you have multiple errors and need to track their corrections.

We recommend that you make corrections before you run the End of Period Costing activity. In some cases, you will need to delete records using the Actions > Delete function. You can also mass-delete records using the Delete Pending Material Transactions form.

In cases where there are pending material transactions involving serial-tracked items, you can use the Pending Serials button to open the Pending Serials form to identify and deal with these items.

Both correcting and re-posting transactions and deleting transactions are valid ways of handling Pending Material Transactions. Your company will need to establish its own procedures.
