Superbackflush

[Caine33]

Hello all,

Having an issue with the superbackflush process in manufacturing.

It seems that when completions are reported, not only does the material associated with the completion amount issue from inventory (ie 1 parent to 1 component), but also the amount of the original ordered quantity.

Ex. WO created for 100 Pcs of part 123. Part 123 uses part 456 at a 1 to 1 ratio. Therefore to complete 100 of part 123 requires 100 of part 456.

If a completion for 15 pcs of part 123 are done, 15 pcs of part 456 are consumed and written as IM entry to the cardex.

In odd cases we also see an additional IM entry in the cardex for 100 pcs of part 456, with no corresponding completion recorded of 100 pcs for part 123.

This happens so intermittently that we are unable to duplicate, but causes major inventory fluctuations if not found.

Does anyone know what triggers this behavior?

Thanks,

Paul

Is this at the WO Issue's part you are having problems with? Is this P31123 you are talking about?
If it is then l would look at the the BoM and how this will contain the items/parts list and the calculation to make 1 or 100 items.

A couple things I would like to ask:

1.) Please provide your JDE statistics (Version of JDE, Toolls, Platform, OS, etc.)

2.) Can you share specifics of your manufacturing routing? Which steps in your routing are classified Pay Points and which designation do you use? Are the Operation Sequences in your BOM tied to your Routing Operations properly? Are your Work Center supplying locations set up properly?
