Equipment account

General

COGLAS offers you the option of managing your loading equipment (LHM). You have the option of posting all receipts and issues of all loading equipment on a business partner-specific basis and tracking them historically.

The LHM account is always managed from the warehouse operator's perspective. There can only be one warehouse operator in the system. In the business partner overview, you can see the summarised LHM account and the LHM account of each business partner.

Receipts and issues of LHM are recorded in the goods receipt or goods issue. However, they can also be corrected manually to the business partner. If there is no business partner as an offsetting account for a posting, LHM are posted against the standard "Lost & Found" business partner.

The LHM accounts are an additional warehouse option that must be activated: Warehouse options → Activate LHM account

Loading equipment: Define which loading equipment is to be taken into account for the accounts and which is not. If "Suitable for LHM accounts" is activated, the corresponding LHM is managed in the accounts.

LHM account history: The history allows you to track postings. You can see which user has debited or credited which business partner from which LHM and when.

Equipment exchange corrections

Manual correction postings are possible via the respective business partners. You can adjust the quantities and therefore the account either via the warehouse operator or the business partner.

In this example: Beierschmitt KG has sent an additional 25 Euro pallets to the warehouse operator. This posting must be posted with "+". If an incorrect entry was made in the goods receipt, you can use "-" to inform the system that Bierschmitt KG has sent you 25 Euro pallets less.

This allows you to adjust your differences in the warehouse and document exactly how these differences are made up.
