Assigning Materials to work order

[former_member597956]

Hi Gurus,

I have created a BOM for a piece of equipment. When assigning parts in the components tab through list as below:

I select the material I want, enter the quantity I used & save.

If for example we have 4 of this particular material and 2 are assigned in the work order how come when the work order is closed it doesn't minus the 2 which were used from our overall quantity?

in a test environment i have trialled this and it never minused from my quantity even though i have attached a quantity to the Work order.

Id appreciate any help or wisdom.

Regards,

Dean

Hi Dean.

If you want the system to automatically issue the stock material component to the PM order, you have to turn on the Backflush indicator. Select the component line in the order and click the General Data button. In the General Indicators screen area, check the Backflushing option. Now, when you confirm the operation (with IW41, for example), the system will automatically issue the parts.

Hi Paul,

That more or less answers my question thank you, one question after I Backflush the material in the work order when checking the available quantity in LS24 is shows as below ?

Hi,

If you add a stock item to a work order, it will never consume the stock immediately from warehouse. Once the WO is released, the system will generate reservation for the item and you can get the item issued from warehouse referring the reservation. If required, you can exclude the quantity of reserved stock from available stock using the standard ATP check functionality.

If it consume the stock automatically from warehouse once you insert the item in WO, then the warehouse team doesnt have any control on the stock quantity which is not possible in real business case.

Hi guys,

I appreciate the answers, regarding the back flushing of the material in MRP2 view there is no backflushing ticked as below;

The unit of measure is correct & there is stock available in the warehouse in which the goods issue is coming from.

Its also not back flushed in the components tab as below;

Im looking to basically add a material to a work order through the components tab which in turn will minus from overall warehouse stock.

Hi,

Check whether it is backflush material. If it is manually issued to the order, there is apossibilty to be like what have you said. Backflushed in mrp2 view? and share what is the unit of measure and check stock availability in storage location. If the stock is in different location this issue may raise.
