Hi

Does anyone know why Work Order Returns does not appear in Inventory Part Availability Planning in APPS10? For large planned repairs you cannot necessarily say that this is unplanned supply. Such returns can possibly be very expensive reusable parts that could/should be considered as a supply for other repairs.

Is it possible to have these shown (e.g. based on work task dates) in Inventory Part Availability Planning and is it possible to include these planned part returns as supplies in the MRP calculation?

I’m not sure what your problem is.  If you didn’t use the parts, use the unissue functionality to put them back in inventory.  If it’s a return you can put them back in stock after rework or scrap them if not.  You may want to make a disposition location to decide what to do.

Hi

A WO Return line which has not yet been returned to inventory can be considered as a planned supply. Hence it could make sense to include this in planning. This doesn’t seem to be supported in standard functionality.

I don’t really see this as a common issue.  You might want to make a lobby feature or something for returns that haven’t been dealt with.
