Entering a Completion With Backflush

If you use Manufacturing Routing and Work Centers, when you enter a completion with backflush, complete the following additional steps.

To enter a completion with backflush:

  1. Go to Transactions > Manufacturing > Enter Work Orders > List.

  2. Access the work order that requires additional steps.

  3. In the Operation Completion section, select the completed operation tasks.

    • To mark a single operation task complete, select the task in both the Starting Operation and Ending Operation lists.

    • To mark a range of operation tasks complete, do the following:

      1. To identify the first operation task complete, enter the Starting Operation.

      2. To identify the last operation task complete, enter the Ending Operation.

      Operation tasks logged as completed include the starting operation, the ending operation, and all operation tasks in between the starting and ending operation tasks.

  4. Enter the Completed Quantity.

    After you enter the quantity, the Components subtab and Operations subtab are automatically populated based on requirements.

    For more information, see Routing Completion Labor and Machine Time Entry.

  5. Optionally, modify the default quantity issued for components.

    When entering a routing completion with backflush, if the starting operation is the first operation, the quantity issued defaults based on the completed quantity. For example, there are 5 components in each unit. The completed quantity is 60 units, therefore, the form displays 300 of the component item issued.

    Note:

    If the Allow Overage on Work Order Transactions preference is enabled, then you can complete/issue a quantity larger than planned.

  6. If the ending operation is the last operation, you can enter a scrap quantity.

    The quantity of assemblies scrapped, posts a value to the scrap account indicated on the item record.

  7. Verify the Quantity to Build:

    When the ending operation is the last operation, the Quantity to Build field is populated with the completed quantity. The quantity is marked completed and moved to inventory.

    You cannot modify the quantity in this field. It updates dynamically based on the starting and ending operation.

  8. If this is a lot numbered or serial numbered assembly, click Inventory Detail to enter lot or serial numbers.

    If you use Multiple Units of Measure, the Units field on the Inventory Detail record defaults to base units and cannot be changed.

  9. Click Save.
