  • 1.  Link PO to WO for different cost types

    Posted 07-17-2019 09:30
    ​​I'm pretty sure I see how the system is designed to work, but I just want to double-check my work before responding to the client. The client wants to purchase items directly to a work order so they are using the "Material Issues" transaction type on the purchase order line. They also have the item as a component on the bill/work order materials list so when they backflush, the item (and corresponding costs) is being issued twice to the work order. There's no way to prevent this from double-posting when using Material Issues, right? I'm trying to either get them to not link the PO at all or perform manual material issues instead. Anyone know if there's different functionality with this scenario in Production Management? I'm doing my Scanco training next week so I'll find out more then. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! #WO

    Production Management will work similarly to JobOps in terms of material usage and linked purchase orders. These transactions are based on items on a Work Ticket on the Materials tab (Parts Entry tab in JobOps) and associated to a Work Ticket step. Required items may be issued directly on the Work Ticket or items may be added and issued by entering the quantity issued in the Issued column (Qty Used column in JobOps).​

    Purchase orders may be cut directly from the Work Ticket for items included on steps or a Purchase Order may be created and linked back to the Work Ticket and the item will be added to the designated step. Receipt of Goods transactions will automatically change that quantity on the Work Ticket step in the Issued column.

    Backflushing will not duplicate the issue of items nor exceed the quantity required.

    When the Inventory Replenishment Planning (IRP) function is released, then that provides another function to cut purchase orders and link to the Work Ticket steps, This will be similar to how Component Exception Manager (CEM) works.
