Dynamic - A dynamic movement has expressions for source and destination values.
Movement events
A movement event is a request for an Inventory operation to occur. These Inventory operations can include material movements, material class movements, balance adjustments, and survey adjustments. AVEVA™ Production Management stores all original movement requests, which are later processed into movement records. You can view movement events in the Movement Events view before processing the requests. After processing, the processed records appear in the Movements view.
Movement records
A movement record is the result of a movement event after processing has occurred. These Inventory operations can include material movements, material class movements, balance adjustments, and survey adjustments. You can view movement records in the Movements view of Production Analyst.
Custom fields for movement events and movements
You can configure custom fields for routine material movements in Studio. It is possible to submit custom field data through the web service. The valid values for the <Field><Name> parameters are the DisplayName values of the custom fields.
Contribution types for movement events and movements
You can configure contribution types under the Inventory configuration item in Studio. It is possible to submit contributor values through the web service for movement events and movements. The valid values for the <Field><Name> parameters are the DisplayName values of the contribution types. These contributor values are used to determine the Contributor Set of the destination lot of the movement.
