ST/OTs

[beckket]

Would like to get input on how others are using Transfer Orders, ST/OTs, and crediting their ST/OTs:

1. Do you use Transfer Orders to transfer between branches within a company or between companies, only when an invoice is not required?

2. Do you have a separate document type, e.g. CT, to credit your STs?

3. Do you use the same document type, ST, with a negative quantity to credit your STs.
(Usually you associate SOs/STs with positive amounts, and COs with negative amounts. Using this method, does it cause confusion amongst your users for reasonability checks?)

Any thoughts/suggestions/downfalls of the above would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

There is a Great White Paper on the JD Edwards website for ST / OT Transfer
Orders. I would review that White Paper. It has all of the Setup and
explains very well what it is used for. Hope this helps.

We use ST/OT to transfer goods to a Consignment for customers who receive consignment stock, and we also use it to transfer stock between branches within one company and to other owned companies. To do a credit we simply ST/OT the goods in the reverse, we don't raise credit notes as this would affect the AR balances.

1. We use ST/OT to handle transfers between branches within the same companies. At this time, we only have one company on JDE but that will change in the coming months but at this time, the ST/OT's are within the same company.
2. We use CT's to handle credits - using this doc type, we prevent any posting to AR.
3. No, we don't use the ST/OT process for credits.
