When you receive a shop order, what is the calculation behind the scenes regarding check on the amount of material issued.

 

I currently have the following scenario:

 

Shop Order Lot Size = 10

Material A

Qty per Assembly = 1

Qty Req Excl Planned Scrap = 10

Scrap Factor = 20%

Qty Required = 13

Qty Issued = 13

 

Despite the lot size being 10, I can over-report to 13.

 

However, let’s say we increase the lot size to 11. I now have:

 

Shop Order Lot Size = 11

Material A

Qty per Assembly = 1

Qty Req Excl Planned Scrap = 13

Scrap Factor = 20%

Qty Required = 14

Qty Issued = 13

 

For some reason in this scenario, I can only report upto 10pcs. Reporting any more results in error message ‘Not enough components issued to receive this quantity’.

 

Assuming I’m missing something, but I cannot see how I can report 13 in the first instance, but then only 10 in the second, despite the Qty per Assembly and Qty Issued not changing?

Self-solved.

 

We had Reserve/Issue Planned Scrap enabled. Where Qty Issued < Qty Required, this appears to prevent us receiving the full qty on the shop order, in cases where materials have a Scrap factor % defined.

 

With the box unchecked, we can receive in this scenario upto the lot size of the order, provided enough materials have been issued to the Qty Req Excl Planned Scrap.
