E9.2 Over received QTY - not determined until WO completion

[JohnDanter2]

Hi all

We have an issue in that we can get supplied an over quantity but don't know this until the boxes are opened for WO completion.
Example a box of 100 actually contains 105.

Whats the best way to handle this extra 5 so we can then store it correctly in our inventory and E1 is happy? Cycle Count update or is there something else to take care of this?

Thanks

John

Hello, If you are using Backflush option, then 100 EA will be backflush during WO completion at Work Center Stock Location (defined at Work Center Master).
Now question is that when you get the supply via Purchase order, do you order in Box? the lowest UOM would be in EA then stock must be showing 100 EA in that case. Ideally this 5 EA should be recorded with additional line in PO if supplier asks to be paid, else Cycle count is the best option to adjust in the stock at actual received location.
