Activity 5: Request Unassigned Inventory

A sponsor creates an unassigned allocation when it requests products from the unassigned inventory at its servicing warehouses.

To create an unassigned allocation:

Display the Sponsor Summary - Allocations tab.
1. Click the Summary menu.
2. Click Sponsor Summary.
  The CNPweb displays the Sponsor Summary - Applications tab.
3. Click the Allocations tab.
  The CNPweb displays the Sponsor Summary - Allocations tab.
Click Add Unassigned.
The CNPweb displays the Unassigned Request Form showing products at the servicing warehouse in the unassigned inventory status.
Review the form and locate a product you want to order.
Review the costs and available quantities for the product.
Type the Request Quantity.
Repeat Step 4 through Step 6 for each product you want to request.
Click Next Page.
The CNPweb calculates and displays the entitlement cost, PAL value, administrative fees, processing fees, and the total fees for the requested product quantities.
Click Submit.
The CNPweb submits your unassigned product request and displays the Sponsor Summary - Allocations tab showing the new unassigned allocation.

Notes:

The Unassigned Request Form displays products grouped by commodity type: entitlement, entitlement no-charge, and bonus. If a commodity type does not appear, it means that the servicing warehouse doesn't have unassigned product for that commodity type.
Use Previous Page to change your requested products or quantities before submitting the request.
You cannot change an unassigned request allocation after you submit it.
Unassigned allocations use the "Req" allocation code and appear on the Sponsor Summary - Allocations tab for the sponsors.
Your state agency can turn off the unassigned request feature for the current program year.
