Introduction
Quarantine Management, which is part of the Inventory management module,
introduces how Microsoft Dynamics® AX 2009 uses Quarantine orders to control
the item location of incoming items for quality control.
NOTE: When the items are in quarantine they are not available in inventory and
cannot be picked from inventory for a delivery.
NOTE: The quarantine warehouse must be associated with the same site as the current
warehouse.
To attach the new quarantine warehouse to the default warehouse, follow these
steps:
Quarantine Parameters
There are two groups attached to an item that affect how the item can use
quarantine management:
Dimension Group
Inventory dimensions control how items are stored and withdrawn from
inventory. The Dimension groups form can be accessed from Inventory
management > Setup > Dimensions > Dimensions groups.
When Inventory dimensions are set up, the storage dimension Site and
Warehouse must be selected for the item's dimension group. It is also required
that this is a primary stocking, meaning that you must enter the dimensions
before any physical update. To do this, select the Primary stocking check box
for Warehouse and Site on the Overview tab in the Dimension group form.
NOTE: The Site dimension is mandatory and will automatically be assigned primary
stocking.
Scenario
You are the purchasing agent for the Contoso Entertainment Systems. You must
buy a new item number 800120, Q.AG.test, for Site 2, Warehouse 21. However,
it is very important to control quality of each item received for a certain time.
You must create the new item and attach it to a new Inventory model group,
QGRP, that you must create and set up for quarantine managed items.
• Create a purchase order for ten items of Q.AG.test for vendor 4301,
Site 2, and warehouse 21.

1. Create and set up a new Inventory model group for quarantine
managed items.
2. Create the new item.
3. Attach the new Inventory model group to this item.
4. Create a purchase order for ten pieces of item number 800120 for

4. When you create a purchase order for ten pieces of item items of
800120, select site 2, and warehouse 21 which is a warehouse that
has a Quarantine warehouse attached to it.
5. To verify that the items are stored in the quarantine warehouse, click
Inventory > Transactions on the purchase order line and then click
the Inventory button and select On hand or Transactions for

Step by Step
Create an inventory model group:
Create a new item and attach the new inventory model group:
11. Specify the packing slip number and then click OK.
12. Open Inventory management > Periodic > Quality
management > Quarantine orders.
13. Verify that the quarantine order for ten items of 800120 is started in
the Quarantine orders form.
o Reported as finished
o Ended
6. The item now has four transactions posted. To see these transactions
open the Transactions form by clicking Inventory > Transactions
from the Quarantine order form.
Status Description
Created This is the status of the order when it is created
manually and the item is not yet put in the
quarantine warehouse. When an order has the status
of Created, you can register the quarantine items
with, for example, serial or batch numbers to be
able to trace the items when they leave the
quarantine warehouse. The items can also be picked
and/or reserved from the standard warehouses, if
you must control which exact items go into
quarantine.
Started On this status a transfer transaction is created and
the item is now moved from the default warehouse
to the quarantine warehouse. This is created for the
manually created order when you click Start. For
the automatically created Quarantine orders, this is
the status that is given when you create it.
Reported as finished If you report a Quarantine order as finished, the
item is released from quarantine; however, it is
located in the quarantine warehouse. If you use
Warehouse management, you can specify an item
arrival journal that is initialized at the time that the
order's items are quarantined. Click the Report as
finished button to report the quarantine order as
finished.
Ended The item is now transferred from the Quarantine
warehouse and back to the standard (or default)
warehouse. At this point, the item is available in
standard inventory and the quarantine management
process is completed. This occurs when you click
the Ended button.
NOTE: Only Quarantine orders with a status of Created or Ended can be deleted
manually.
• The item's inventory model group and dimension group must be set
up with the correct parameters previously discussed.
• The warehouse where the item is being purchased must have a
quarantine warehouse attached to it.
If these settings are enabled, all receipts of the item automatically create a
Quarantine order that is located in Inventory management > Periodic >
Quality management > Quarantine orders.
The automatically generated Quarantine order puts the item in the quarantine
inventory and is processed through the order statuses in the same manner as a
manual quarantine order. Therefore, the order must have the status Reported as
finished or Ended before the item is physically available in the standard
inventory. Notice that, unlike the manual quarantine order, the automatic
quarantine order has the status of Started when it is created.
Creation Description
On packing slip update The item is put in a quarantine warehouse when
the purchase packing slip is updated. For this
option, there is no registration requirement.
On registration The item is put in a quarantine warehouse when
registered in purchasing. For this option, the
Registration requirement check box must be
selected in the Inventory model group.
Location journal The item is registered at a standard (or default)
warehouse with the help of a Location journal.
When the journal is posted, a pallet transport is
generated to move the item from the regular
warehouse to the quarantine warehouse. When the
pallet transport is Complete, a Quarantine order is
generated. The pallet is moved to a quarantine
warehouse.
When you click OK, a new quarantine order is created in the Quarantine orders
form that has the split quantity and the quantity on the original quarantine order
is updated. It is now possible to end the part of the order that passed the
quarantine by selecting that quarantine order and clicking Report as Finished
and End.
NOTE: The return actions are set up for purchase orders in Accounts
payable > Setup > Purchase order >Return action.
NOTE: Quarantine orders must be in a Started status to scrap quantities on the order.
When an item is scrapped, it does not affect the quantity on the Quarantine order
line. When you click the Report as finished and/or End button, notice that the
scrapped quantity has been deducted from the quantity. Therefore, only the part
of the order that passed quarantine is reported as finished and ended.
To see the transactions generated when scrapping an item, click Inventory >
Transactions.
NOTE: To modify the statuses click the Select button and type or select the statuses in
the Criteria field. Ensure that you separate the statuses with a comma before clicking
OK.
Scenario
When the quality assurance tests are completed, you verify that eight of the ten
items can be accepted into inventory, and the remaining two items must be
scrapped.
Challenge Yourself!
Your task is to register these inventory movements, for the quarantine order that
you created in Lab - Create Quarantine Inventory.
Step by Step
To view the inventory transactions, open the Items form, select the item and then
click the Transactions button. These transactions are for the item number and
not a specific sales or purchase order. To view quarantine transactions on a sales
or purchase order, open either of these forms and select the order for which you
want to see the transactions. Click the Inventory button and select Transactions.
Created Transactions
When a quarantine transaction has the status Created, two inventory transactions
are created: On order and Ordered.
Started Transactions
When the order status on quarantine transaction is changed to Started, two of the
existing inventory transactions’ statuses are changed and two undated inventory
transactions are created, for a total of four inventory transactions.
The transactions, Ordered and Reserved physical, are created to handle the return
transfer of the items as soon as the quarantine order status is Ended.
Ended Transactions
When an item reaches the final status, Ended, the two undated transactions that
were created when the order status was changed to Started, are changed as
described in the following table.
Summary
Quarantine Management discussed the setup of Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009
for both automatic and manual quality control.
