Background Information

The NPS (Notice of Processed Shipment) Receipt Maintenance module maintains receipt
records of processed commodities. When a warehouse receives a shipment of a processed
product, a warehouse user enters an NPS Receipt in NPS Receipt Maintenance. The online
NPS Maintenance and NPS Receipt modules replace the paper forms previously used to
track shipments and receipts of processed commodities.


Relationship between NPS Maintenance and NPS Receipt Maintenance Modules

   The system generates the NPS Number when the NPS Maintenance record is saved.
    The NPS Number carries over to the NPS Receipt.

   All commodities listed on the NPS Maintenance record automatically appear on the NPS
    Receipt unless commodities are added to the NPS Maintenance record after the receipt
    has already been saved.
   Commodities added to the NPS Maintenance record after the receipt has been saved will
    appear on the receipt only if the Refresh Orders button on the NPS Receipt is clicked.

   Receipt Status is linked to Ship Status on the NPS Maintenance record. When the
    receipt is saved, the Ship Status (NPS Maintenance) changes to the same status as the
    Receipt Status (NPS Receipt).
   Ship Status on the NPS Maintenance record cannot be changed once a receipt has been
    entered, but the Receipt Status can be changed on the receipt.
   Units Ordered (on NPS Maintenance) equal units Exp (on NPS Receipt). Updates to
    Ordered are reflected in the Exp field.

   Units Received (NPS Maintenance) equal units Accp (NPS Receipt). Updates to Accp
    (NPS Receipt) are reflected in the Received field (NPS Maintenance).
   Units accepted (Accp) can be greater or less than Ordered on the NPS Maintenance
    record. The user will receive a warning message if Accp is greater than Ordered, but the
    record will be saved.

Background Information




Revising/Updating Receipts

   Saved rows in the End Products window cannot be removed, but the units can be
    changed until the commodity is allocated. Units can be set to zero to deactivate a row
    before allocation.
   The Updated By field records only those updates made to the NPS Receipt Summary
    and Comments windows. Updated By does not record updates to the End Product
    Quantities window. The Audit Log keeps a history of all updates made to the entire
    record.
   Once a receipt is entered and saved, the number of units accepted increases the
    available inventory and can be viewed in the Inventory Browse module.

Entering a Receipt During an Allocation Process
Receipts can be entered during the allocation process. Units received during an allocation go
into pending inventory. Once the allocation process is complete, the pending units
automatically move to available inventory and can be allocated in the next allocation process
(if the Alloc? checkbox is selected for that commodity).

User Groups

A user's security group determines whether the user can view, update, and enter a new NPS
Receipt record.

Central Users -- authorized Central users can view, update, and enter new NPS Receipts.
Other Central users can view all of the NPS Receipts, but cannot update or enter new NPS
Receipts. Central users can search for any NPS Receipt; therefore, none of the search fields
are completed automatically.

School/Co-ops – School and Co-op coordinators can view only the NPS Receipts for their
own school or co-op. The School/Co-op fields will be completed automatically for these
users.

Processors – Processors can search only for their own records. The Processor fields will be
completed automatically for these users.


Destination Warehouses – Warehouse users can view, update, or create new NPS

NPS Ship Statuses (Selected on NPS Maintenance screen only)

   New (N) - Notifies the warehouse of the expected shipment.

   Shipped (S) - The order has been shipped to the warehouse.
   Terminated (T) - Terminated is usually used when there is an error on the original NPS
    Maintenance record.


NPS Receipt Statuses

   New receipts can be entered only for NPS Maintenance records with a ship status of
    New, Shipped, or Partial.

   The Receipt Status can be set to either Partial or Complete.

   Partial (P) - The warehouse has received a partial order.

   Completed (C) - The warehouse has received the complete order.
   Complete w/ Credit (R) - Warehouse received less than the quantity listed on NPS
    Maintenance and the processor credited school(s) for the shortage.

End Product Quantities

   Alloc?
     Central Processing staff places a check in the Alloc? checkbox in the End Product
      Quantities window to select commodities for allocation. The system will allocate only
      those commodities that have the Alloc? checkbox selected. Only authorized Central
      users can select or deselect the Alloc? checkbox.
     Once the Alloc? checkbox is selected, no one can change the units received. If
      changes are necessary, call SNP Central Processing and request assistance.
     When the allocation is running, the Alloc? check box will be unavailable (grayed out).

     Once a product has been allocated, no one can make changes.

   Unsaved rows can be removed using the Remove button located below End
    Product Quantities. Or you may leave zeroes in the Ship, Accp, Over, Shrt, and
    Dmgd boxes and the system will remove the rows.

TEXAS COMMODITY SYSTEM USER GUIDE




Background Information

   Saved rows cannot be removed. If incorrect data is entered into the Ship, Accp,
    Over, Shrt, or Dmgd and saved, you can correct the data until the allocation is
    run. For assistance with errors, contact SNP Processing.



   The Lot Nbr must be unique for each warehouse and end product. The Lot Nbr can be
    changed as long as there has been no change to the FIFO record, such as an allocation
    or an inventory adjustment. If a product has been assigned different lot numbers, enter a
    separate row for each lot number in the End Product Quantities window. Rows may be
    added to End Product Quantities for any commodity listed on the NPS Maintenance
    record. Click the Add button below the End Product Quantities window and enter the
    receipt information.
   Units receipted in each row must balance according to the following formula:

       Accp = Ship + Over - Shrt - Dmgd

   Units cannot be saved in both the Over and Shrt fields on the same row.

   Units are allowed in both Over and Dmgd on the same row.
   Units in Accp will go into available inventory or pending inventory if the allocation is
    running.

Refresh Orders Button

   Commodity shipments added to the NPS Maintenance record after the receipt has been
    saved will appear on the receipt only if you click the Refresh Orders button on the NPS
    Receipt.

Background Information

Summary of Shipping and Receiving Process for Processed Commodities

1. Recipient agencies that want to receive processed commodities place a request with the
   Processing Unit for the raw commodities that are used to make the end products.
2. Central users enter requests for the raw commodities in the USDA Order Maintenance
   module.
3. The raw commodities are shipped to the processor. A central user enters a receipt in the
   USDA Receipt Maintenance record when the processor receives the raw commodities.
4. The processor makes processed products from the raw commodities.
5. The processor enters a NPS Maintenance record for processed commodities that are
   ready to be shipped. This notifies warehouse users of the expected shipment.
6. Warehouse users record receipt of the processed commodities in NPS Receipt
   Maintenance.

Navigation

The Navigation Window includes the following links:

   Go to NPS Maintenance - Opens the NPS Maintenance List View, which contains the
    corresponding NPS Maintenance record. Likewise, NPS Receipt Maintenance can be

Technical Notes

   To be displayed in the drop-down lists, processing schools/co-ops must have:
     an active record in the Warehouse Maintenance module, with the warehouse type S
      designation

     an NPS Co-op Maintenance record.

   The Select a New Contract window includes agencies with an active contract for the
    specific program year, with Processing =Y (Contract Maintenance).
   An inventory record must exist for the product, warehouse, and year before a receipt can
    be entered.
   Updated By records updates only to the parent tables (NPS Receipt Summary and
    Comments windows). The system records the user's name, date, and time of the last
    update on the NPS Summary or Comments windows. If there have been no updates to
    the NPS Summary or Comments windows, Updated By will be the same as Created By.
    Updated By does not record changes made to the End Product Quantities. The Audit Log
    keeps a history of all updates to all windows.
   Commodities must be approved for processing each year. Approved A and B
    commodities are entered into the system in the Commodities Maintenance module.
    When doing a Search, Processors must enter the program year in order to see the
    commodities list since approved products change from year-to-year.

Important Information About New NPS Receipts

When a shipment of processed commodities is received at the Destination Warehouse, a new
NPS Receipt is entered. The NPS Receipt Wizard will get you started.

   Only Warehouse users and certain Central users can enter new NPS Receipts.
   NPS Receipts can be entered only for those NPS Maintenance records with a status of New
    (N), Shipped (S) or Partial (P).
   The commodities shipped on the NPS Maintenance record automatically appear on the
    corresponding NPS Receipt, unless additional commodities were added to NPS
    Maintenance after a partial receipt was saved. The Refresh Orders button will retrieve any
    commodities added to the NPS Maintenance and list them on the receipt.
   The Lot Nbr must be unique for the commodity and warehouse. If a product has been
    assigned different lot numbers, click the Add button below the End Product Quantities
    window and enter the receipt information for each lot on separate rows.
   The Receipt Status that is entered on the NPS Receipt changes the Ship Status on the
    NPS Maintenance to the same status.
   The Partial Receipt Status should be used when part of the shipment will be delivered on
    another truck.
   The Completed Receipt Status should be used when a complete shipment has been
    received at the warehouse.
   Units accepted (Accp) can be greater or less than Ordered on the NPS Maintenance
    record. The user will receive a message telling them to notify central staff if Accp is greater
    than Ordered. However, the record can be saved.
