Select advanced search

Select custom to input a date range
Scroll down that page until you see ( O Parts) on the left, click on the O so Parts is selected.
Scroll down and click on search.
Another window will pop up
Once it shows completed, click on hyperlinked word completed
Another window will pop up, click on export to excel.
Another window pops up, again click on completed.
Now your excel file will download.
Now you can open the file an select which columns that you want to look at.
First of all, I delete columns A-F, then columns C-L, and finally columns D-CQ.
I then expand column D for more of the correction description so I have an idea of what parts can be scrapped.
I then sort the RO column from smallest to largest #
Then I print the file and go clean out the bins.


This is not perfect, as I find some paid RO’s with no part numbers in the casual part column.

I wanna thank everyone for the input, a lot of great answers and definitely has helped me develop a thorough process. This is a great community with a lot of thoughtful contributors.

every part that we retain in out warranty bin gets recorded on a form we created. (the form just has ro # on it 1-0 last number of ro. every week or so someone takes the form to the computer and checks to see if it was paid for and then we scrap. its an easy and simple process even a caveman can do it .i mean our parts driver.

So I was looking though this as well and have run the report. I do have a question regarding the date. This report does not appear to have the paid date. How do I know how many days to hold something or the date when I can scrap it if I don't have the paid transaction date. I do see that this report does have a job card date. Which I was assuming means the date that the repair order was opened on. Am I looking at this wrong? What am I missing here?

This is an accepted transactions report, so there is no paid date, only the date that it was accepted by the WPC. I input a date that is at least 7 days old, I usually do 14 to be on the safe side. This was shown to me by an WPC analyst several years ago. But what works for some, doesn't always work for others.
