Scan or Enter the Lot and Serial Number Details for Backflush Components Using Industrial Handheld Devices

Before this release, industrial handheld mobile operation transactions supported backflush of only plain components or ingredients. With this enhancement, production operators can complete operations on mobile devices for work orders that include plain, lot-controlled, serial-controlled, and lot-and-serial-controlled backflush components or ingredients. 

You can now enter the lot and serial details for backflush components or ingredients during Mobile Manufacturing operation completion transactions. If lot or serial enabled components are to be backflushed, then the Backflush Materials UI appears as part of operation completion. All pull components or ingredients for the operation are displayed, and operators can add ad hoc components for issue. User can enter lot and serial details for backflush components or ingredients during Mobile Manufacturing operation completion transactions.

Backflush Materials - Scan Item Lot

This enhancement enables production operators to remain in the mobile operation completion flow when backflush components require lot or serial tracking. It reduces the need for separate follow-up transactions for tracked materials, improves shop floor efficiency, and supports more accurate capture of inventory-controlled material during operation reporting.

Steps to enable and configure
