I’m looking for some assistance in the best way to managed by-products when they are produced at a subcontractor. Our current setup is to use outside operations for the subcontracting. We link the material and the by-products to the operation for subcontracting, however this does not seem to provide a supported solution when managing the purchase. We want the purchase order to show what by-products are expected. We need to receive the by-product against the purchase order, but currently this remains for receipt against the shop order. Is there any built-in solution which supports by-products handling with subcontractors?
Hi all, We have an issue with our backflush settings. Previously the Backflush Part setting is set to All Locations for all parts. However, there are only some parts where we actively want to backflush. We are seeing cases where users select to backflush during receipt of shop order and unintentionally we consume stock. I have tried to prevent this by changing the settings to ‘Only Specified Location’ for all parts. On reading of the help and initial test this was perfect. It will prevent backflush, unless you specify a location for backflush on the shop order material or purchase components. However, the change in this setting appears to prevent automatic reservation of parts. This a a problem as we want parts to be freely reserved and picked via a pick list (or manual issue in some cases). Our ideal solution is for backflush to be off completely, unless we specify a location where backflush can take place. Is this possible?
