Fractionalizing Inventory TIM Tech Tip – Fractionalizing Inventory
A key component in customizing TIM is the ability to fractionalize inventory to match a shop’s specific needs. Most of this work occurs during the installation and the use of the Fractionalization Worksheet is recommended
Topics Covered:
A. Fractionalizing for Technician Checkout
B. Setting Minimums on Fractionalized Part Numbers
C. FractionalizingforRO#Assignment(recoverableproducts)

A. Fractionalizing for Technician Checkout
1. If a technician will be checking out less than a full package the inventory needs to be set up accordingly
a. Try to identify the part numbers to be fractionalized prior to installation, use the Fractionalization Worksheet to gather this information
b. Checkout quantity must be evenly divisible into package quantity. For example, if there are 15 pieces in a package the product must be checked out in quantities of 1, 3, or 5
2. In this example, we will set up NOR.06014 (15 / box) to be checked out 3 discs at a time and the shop has 12 discs on hand
a. On the inventory screen, click on the “Edit” button next to NOR.06014
