# Finished goods and Packaging counts

## Overview

The EOM-FG-PKG file will be the file you will be sending into finance, this file will include the current inventories as of 7am or the time the shift change is in your plant.

You will need to review all the data and make the necessary adjustments to the file before sending into finance.

NOTE: This includes PPOO adjustments as the data is not capturing ppoo

All adjustments should also be corrected in alplaprod do not just update the file as this data is also pulled into alplamart automatically.

NOTE:

-   That all manual changes will be reflected on the next months report in alpla mart there is no way to correct these.
-   All manual changes will be over written each time the get data button is pressed.

## Getting and updating the file

You will need to get the template from the email sent out on the first. please only use the file that is provided via the email to send into finance as this will always be the most updated file.

NOTE: if this file opens in the browser you will need to open in desktop by clicking on the far right

Once you have the file open change please change the plant to your plant and the date to the first of the month

please note that it must be the first day of the month so all the correct data can be pulled into the file, you can still of course run this though out the month by entering any date you want to validate or check the inventory on.

once you have selected the server and entered the first of the month you can press get data.

This will pull all the necessary data to complete this report. when you validate this data depending on the time of day you run it. it could be off due to the data being historical and only updating to 7am or shift time.

If you want to compare the data you will need to use alplamart to check this under the inventory section.

NOTE that you could be off by 1 pallet due to calculations and timing.

Please review both the FG and Packaging tab to make sure all inventory data is correct.

## Finished goods tab

The finished goods tab dose not include ppoo so you will need to add this in manually and validate the ppoo is a real pallet.

other things to look at in the FG tab are the pallets on hold and COA hold to make sure you agree with these numbers, as we know sometimes pallets are left on coa hold and not moved to a real hold.

as stated in the overview you will need to make sure if you change the coa to the hold column quality must also do the same.

For consignment when you make sure adjustments in consignment make sure you are also doing the consignment invoicing process.

This section will also be semi manual due to customer inventory not being available until the 1st and sometimes after the alplaprod historical updates happen.

## Packaging Tab

-   UOM data is pulled from the purchase price, no UOM present the default is 1
