Infor Factory Track Warehouse Mobility and Time Track Transaction Reference (CSI / SyteLine)

A searchable reference of Infor Factory Track Warehouse Mobility transactions for CloudSuite Industrial and SyteLine, plus the main Time Track functions. For each transaction it shows what the user scans, what the transaction does, what must be set up first and the mistake that most often causes inventory or cost errors.

Module	Transaction	User scans or enters	What it does	Prerequisites	Common gotcha
Warehouse Mobility	Purchase Order Receipt	PO or GRN number, line, item, quantity, location, lot or serial	Receives material against purchase orders or GRNs, with optional one-step put away	Released PO lines; receiving location set up	Receiving to a dock location without a later Putaway leaves stock in the wrong place
Warehouse Mobility	Putaway	Item or container, from and to location	Puts received items away separately, suggesting locations where the item already exists	Stock in a receiving or staging location	Skipped when one-step put away was used on receipt
Warehouse Mobility	Transfer Order Receipt	Transfer order, line, quantity, location	Receives items from transfer orders, with optional one-step put away	Shipped transfer order lines	Receiving before the shipping transaction is posted
Warehouse Mobility	Transfer Order Shipping	Transfer order, line, quantity, location	Ships items between sites or warehouses	Transfer order with available stock	Lot and serial must be scanned for tracked items
Warehouse Mobility	Job Material Issue	Job, operation, item, quantity, location, lot or serial	Picks and issues raw material to a job from the BOM, outside the BOM, or from containers	Released job with material requirements	Issuing outside the BOM changes job cost; check it is intended
Warehouse Mobility	Job Material UnIssue	Job, item, quantity, return location	Returns unconsumed issued material to a stock location	Material previously issued to the job	Use it instead of a miscellaneous receipt so job cost is reversed
Warehouse Mobility	Work Center Material Issue	Work center, item, quantity, location	Issues material to work centers or recalls previously issued material	Work center set up for material issue	Not tied to a specific job; costs follow work center rules
Warehouse Mobility	Project Material Issue	Project, task, item, quantity, location	Issues project material, similar to Job Material Issue	Project with material requirements	Use the shop floor variant only where the Shop Floor module is in use
Warehouse Mobility	Job Receipt	Job, operation, quantity, location, lot or serial	Reports quantities produced against a job, optionally printing labels	Job at its last operation or receiving operation	Printer not set for the session; use Change Printer first
Warehouse Mobility	WIP Move	Job, operation, quantity	Moves completed items to the next operation; can complete operations, close jobs and combine put away	Job operations defined	Closing the job here stops further postings to it
Warehouse Mobility	JIT Production	Item, quantity, location	Reports production for just-in-time items, optionally with put away	JIT production set up for the item	Backflush of components depends on item setup
Warehouse Mobility	Production Schedule Reporting	Production schedule, item, quantity	Reports production for repetitive manufacturing using production schedules	Production schedules in use	Not for discrete jobs; use Job Receipt there
Warehouse Mobility	Stock Move	Item, from location, to location, quantity, lot or serial	Moves material between locations within a warehouse	Stock at the from location	Moving reserved stock can break a staged pick
Warehouse Mobility	Multi-Site Move	Item, from and to warehouse, quantity, lot or serial	Moves inventory between warehouses, supporting lot and serial control	Both warehouses set up	Check the target site is the intended one before posting
Warehouse Mobility	Quantity Adjustments	Item, location, new quantity, reason	Adjusts an item quantity at a location with a reason code	Reason codes defined	Adjustments skip the count process; use Cycle Count for routine corrections so variances stay reviewable
Warehouse Mobility	Miscellaneous Issue	Item, location, quantity, reason code, document number	Issues items for a miscellaneous reason	Reason codes defined	Using it to correct job issues hides cost from the job
Warehouse Mobility	Miscellaneous Receipt	Item, location, quantity, reason code, document number	Receives items for a miscellaneous reason	Reason codes defined	Value comes from item cost; check cost before receiving
Warehouse Mobility	Cycle Count	Count sheet, location, item, counted quantity	Counts items in locations from generated cycle count sheets, with optional forced re-entry	Cycle count sheets generated	Moving stock during an open count creates false variances
Warehouse Mobility	Cycle Verify	Location, item, recount quantity	Lets supervisors review mismatches or uncounted items and recount	Cycle count with variances	Post variances only after the recount
Warehouse Mobility	Physical Inventory By Sheet	Inventory sheet, location, item, quantity	Counts items using inventory sheets or verifies prior counts	Physical inventory sheets generated	Freeze transactions during the count
Warehouse Mobility	Physical Inventory By Tag	Tag number, item, location, quantity	Counts items using inventory tags	Tags generated and printed	Account for every tag, including unused ones
Warehouse Mobility	Customer Order Picking	Order, line, item, quantity, location	Reserves reservable items and moves them to the staging location	Staging location defined	Ship with Customer Order Shipping, not Pick N Ship
Warehouse Mobility	Customer Order Shipping	Order or container at staging	Ships reserved items that are at the staging location	Items picked to staging	Only staged, reserved items can be shipped
Warehouse Mobility	Pick N Ship	Order, line, item, quantity, location	Picks and ships customer order lines from regular locations in one step	Order lines with stock	Works for reservable and non-reservable items; no staging step
Warehouse Mobility	PPS Picking / PPS Packing / PPS Shipping	Pick list, item, quantity, package	Pick, pack and ship by pick list	SyteLine Pick, Pack, and Ship in use	Mixing PPS and standard picking on the same orders
Warehouse Mobility	Build Container	Container, items, quantities	Adds items to new or existing containers	Container setup and labels	Moving loose items that belong in a container
Warehouse Mobility	Empty Container	Container, items	Removes items from containers	Existing container	Relabel loose items afterwards
Warehouse Mobility	Item Inquiry / Location Inquiry / Container Inquiry	Item, location or container	Read-only views of on-hand, reserved and container quantities, lots and locations	None	Use before moving stock to avoid touching reserved quantity
Warehouse Mobility	Change Printer / Change Warehouse	Printer or warehouse	Temporarily changes the printer or warehouse for the current session	Printers and warehouses defined	Check the current printer before Job Receipt or PO receipt labels print in the wrong area
Warehouse Mobility	Label Reprint	User, transaction, label, printer, item or request ID	Reprints barcode labels	Label printing configured	Reprinting a serial label creates duplicates on the floor
Warehouse Mobility	Labor Reporting	Employee, job or order, operation	Starts and stops employee work on jobs, projects and service orders	Employees linked to users	If Time Track also records labor, choose one so hours are not booked twice
Warehouse Mobility	Device Allocation	Device, employee	Issues and returns devices	Devices registered	Unreturned devices at shift end are hard to trace without it
Time Track	Attendance (clock in and out, breaks)	Badge or employee ID	Records attendance time for payroll and labor reconciliation	Employees, shifts and pay rules set up	Shift and rounding rules decide paid time; test overnight shifts

Warehouse Mobility transaction names follow the Factory Track CSI Warehouse Mobility user guide (Using Warehouse Mobility on a Mobile Scanner). Time Track rows describe functional areas; exact menu labels depend on your release and configuration, so check the Infor Factory Track for CSI Time Track User Guide. Kanban, QCS and SRO transactions also exist and require the related modules.

How to use it

Search by transaction name or by what you are trying to do: receive, issue, move, count, ship. Use the table to write scanner work instructions, to train new warehouse staff, or to decide which transaction to give each role on its scanner menu. Export to Excel and add columns for your own site: which users get the transaction, which label prints, which location type is involved. When a user reports a wrong stock figure, the gotcha column usually points to the transaction that caused it.

Give each role only the transactions it needs on its menu.
Train with real barcodes in a test environment, not screenshots.

How Factory Track relates to CSI

Factory Track runs alongside CloudSuite Industrial and posts the scanned transaction into CSI in real time, so a Job Material Issue on the scanner appears as an issue against the job material in CSI, and a Purchase Order Receipt appears as a receipt on the PO line. The CSI forms remain the system of record. Warehouse Mobility covers receiving, inventory, counting, picking, shipping and production reporting; Time Track covers attendance and labor; the Shop Floor module adds Kanban and shop floor transactions. Some transactions, such as the PPS ones, require the matching CSI functionality to be enabled.

Picking and shipping: three different flows

Customer Order Picking reserves items and moves them to a staging location; Customer Order Shipping then ships only those reserved, staged items. Pick N Ship does both in one step from regular locations and handles reservable and non-reservable items. The PPS transactions follow SyteLine Pick, Pack, and Ship with pick lists, packing and shipping. Pick one flow per warehouse or customer type and stick to it. Mixing them on the same orders is the common cause of shipments that look picked but never ship, or stock reserved at staging that nobody can find.

Production transactions and job cost

Job Material Issue, Job Material UnIssue, WIP Move and Job Receipt drive job cost in CSI. Return unused material with Job Material UnIssue rather than a Miscellaneous Receipt, or the job keeps the cost of material it did not use. Issuing outside the BOM is allowed and changes job cost, which is correct for substitutions and wrong for mistakes. WIP Move can complete operations and close the job; closing too early blocks later postings. If both Labor Reporting and Time Track record labor, decide which one books job hours so the same time is not posted twice.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Infor Factory Track Warehouse Mobility?

It is the barcode scanning module of Infor Factory Track. Warehouse staff use handheld scanners or the Android app to receive, move, count, pick, ship and report production, and each transaction posts to CloudSuite Industrial (SyteLine) or LN in real time.

What is the difference between Pick N Ship and Customer Order Shipping?

Customer Order Shipping ships items already reserved and moved to a staging location by Customer Order Picking. Pick N Ship picks and ships order lines in one step from regular locations, without a staging step, for both reservable and non-reservable items.

How do I return material issued to a job in Factory Track?

Use Job Material UnIssue. It returns unconsumed issued material to a stock location and reverses the issue against the job. Avoid Miscellaneous Receipt for this, because it leaves the cost on the job and records a receipt with no link to it.

Does Factory Track replace CSI forms?

No. Factory Track gives scanner and kiosk transactions for floor and warehouse users, and posts them into CSI. Planning, setup, costing, inquiries and corrections that need full context are still done in CSI forms by office users.
