Title: backflush errors from SD-Q-MFG
Post by mjc1of5 on 01/21/05 at 12:08:29

When I initially setup the EVO defaults, I set the SD-Q-MFG default for "check comps for finish prod" to "Y".

When we receive finished goods at MFG-W-O-I the system prompts to backflush non-issued components.

My inventory person mistakenly started replying "Y" to the backflush, and now our inventory is all screwed up!!!

Does anybody know how I can pull a report showing backflush transactions?
I don't see any indication of backflush vs. manual issue.

It sure would be nice to generate a list of transactions that we can reverse.

Otherwise, we will need to do a physical count. OUCH!!

Thanks for any help!

To the best of my knowledge there is no distinction made in INVTXN for backflush vs. individually issued parts.

If your normal issues are done at WO-G as individual (not Kit or List issues) then there is a field in WOMAT that indicates whether a transaction was an individual transaction or part of a Kit (which would include backflush) but other than that, there is no easy way.

Since there is a fairly limited time span involved, you could export INVTXN records from the date range involved and compare the W and I type for the same work order number - if the date/time stamp is very close, they happened together and are the backflushes you are looking for.

Now, of course, if the backflushed items were already part of a kit issue, you would have a HECK of a time.... ;)

If you find that this happens to you on a regular basis, might be worth it to ask Lynn to create a custom for you that would create a log file (which, of course, can be imported into Excel for reporting/analysis) for all of your Issues and FP transactions. Just another idea that provides SOME level of audit.

This was a one time problem, due to training (or lack of).

We use kit issues, so it looks like we will have to try to run an export and try to determine which transactions need reversal.

Thanks for all the help!
