I have a serialized assembly that has lot controlled components.  The as built structure for the assembly of the serialized assembly shows the lot batch numbers of the of the components I used to assemble the serialized parts.

I now open a repair shop order and flag it as multi level.  I then issue the serialized assembly and the multilevel repair structure shows the lot batches of the components from the item’s original construction.  All is well so far.

One of the components needs to be replaced and the original component is scrapped.  SO I do a remove and go ro do an add. 

Questions:

1. Why does the system automatically create a salvage part that I must now receive even though that component is just going to b=the scrap heap?  I can understand if it were a salvage or a replacement and I intend to use that partially used component elsewhere but why a salvage part if I am NOT salvaging it?  How do I just remove it an add a new one?
2. As I said earlier, the component is lot controlled and we know the lot number of the item we are removing from the assembly.  Why, then, when the salvage part is created, the lot number is created as if the part has order based lot tracking on the master part and forgets the original lot number??? 

I welcome ideas and suggestions as to how to JUST remove a part WITHOUT creating the salvage part and why the salvage part is automatically assigned an order-based lot number!

Thanks!
