Module Purpose

The Scrap Disposal Location module serves as master data for defining official locations or destinations for the disposal of production leftovers, waste, or scrap materials. Recording these locations is important for ensuring traceability and compliance with environmental regulations, as well as for cost accounting purposes related to waste management.​

4. Integrated Workflow & Business Process

• Waste and Scrap Management: When a production operator records leftovers or scrap from a Work Order, the system will prompt them to select where the scrap is being disposed of. The list of options will be drawn from the master data created in this module.

• Environmental Regulatory Compliance: By digitally recording every waste disposal (especially for hazardous waste), the company can easily generate the necessary reports for environmental audits or government requirements. This creates a clear audit trail for every kilogram of waste produced and disposed of.​

• Environmental Cost Accounting: Costs associated with waste disposal (e.g., transportation costs to a third party or internal processing costs) can be linked to these disposal locations. This allows the accounting department to track and allocate waste management costs more accurately.

5. Tips & Important Notes

• Ensure the data, especially the Disposal Site Address, is accurate and matches the actual vendor or internal location data.

• For third parties (waste management vendors), it is advisable that the names and codes used here are consistent with the data in the Vendor Master to facilitate reconciliation.

• The management of this module should be the responsibility of the Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) department or the department responsible for waste management, in coordination with the Production and Accounting teams.
