Hold Status

Introduction

Trade Items can be given an "On-Hold" status if they should for some reason be prevented from being consumed into production or shipped to customers. The "on-hold" status is maintained only on trade item level, and thus the ATP and related stock overviews can completely rely on precise information for each individual unit of stock.

Pallet Entries, who have one or more Trade Items, have a flowfield in the record which indicates if any of the related Trade Items have an "On hold" status.

The Production Lot card has a "Default Hold Status", which determines that Trade Items produced against it should be created with status "On-Hold".

Hold Status types

There are eight different types of hold statuses available in Wisefish; three for free stock and four for blocked stock.

Open

Free stock

(empty): Trade Items are free and available.

Released: Trade Items are free and available. They have however previously been "On hold" and then manually released to free stock.

Extended (BB4): Trade Items are free and available. They have however consciously been given an extended livetime after being on hold for 'Testing (BB4)'.

Blocked stock

Trade Items with types 3-7 are blocked from shipment. They are by default also blocked from being consumed to production (except if instructions on the production lot card allowes).

Hold: Trade Items are on hold and unavailable (general "On-Hold" status).

QA Hold: Trade Items are on hold and unavailable. "QA hold" means that there is a quality issue that the Quality Assurance team must resolve.

QA Lock: Trade Items are on hold and unavailable. Quality Assurance team has locked further transactions for Trade Items as they are seen unfit for sales or not up to standards.

Testing (BB4): Trade Items are on hold and unavailable. "Testing Best Before" indicates that the Quality Assurance team is currently reviewing if the Trade Items can be released for sale.

Customs Hold: Trade Items are on hold until they have been released from customs.
