Title: WO-I backflush error
Post by Cyndee Pappas on 08/20/04 at 13:05:37

Testing the latest update
I am seeing an ugly problem with the "B" setting when entering a partial. It happens on components where the qty per is anything other than 1. The correct quantity is being issued (verified in IN-E) but some screens are showing screwy numbers. In IN-A, the On hand, Allocations and WIP are incorrect. WO-A quantity issued and % are wrong. JC-A, % issued is wrong. Because onhand is wrong, got a false shortage report. MRP is using the wrong onhand & allocations.

Running Reconcile Inventory SM-J-C, Master and Transactions level, Method B, corrected the actual inventory. Then needed to run Recalculate Inventory Book Value UT-K-G The SM-J-C report had many "Location had trxns with UOH of xxx but BKICLOC UOH was yyy; chgd BKICLOC UOH" messages.

Running WO-K-H Recalculate Work Order Cost fixes the IN-A WIP and Allocations. Also the WO & JC screens. Correct allocations now being used by MRP. The WO-K-H is great, but in this case, running it was masking the problem in inventory.

Guess we'll be sticking with the "Y" default for a while longer.

Under Work Order Defaults (SD-B). Backflush in Enter Finished Production.

We use a "Y" here but have to be careful which items we backflush in WO-I , because we do alot of issues, and backflush with sequence finish. This would make the "B" setting very useful if it worked. I think we tried it and changed it back because it didn't work. I just retried it in a test company and got the same results you did. Fortunately for us most of our work orders are for 1 unit. Stock items we make in quantity are reported when complete; we rarely do a partial finish.

I just sent Cyndee an updated version. I think we got all the kinks worked out but if anybody else is interested, I can send them a copy as well.

Lynn, thanks for the prompt response. Unfortunately, the 8/23 file did not fix it. I've sent you details by email.
