Process: Chemical Manufacturing Company wants to blend existing Lot controlled Inventory Qty into new Stock production order.
Example: New production order to produce 5300 LB. We have 88 LB of existing inventory. When the production order is generated, the raw materials list is as expected from the BOM. We want the production managers to manually add the existing material, and increase the qty produced by the end of the production process.
My first attempt was to increase the Qty to Produce, but this increases all raw materials equally.
My second attempt was to simply increase the Material and Move transactions but the move transaction gave me this error:
“The transaction cannot be created for Production Order RO PRD001117 because the item quantity exceeds the preassigned item quantity for the 2504154927 lot or serial number.”
We are pre-assigning lot numbers.
Anyone have any idea’s for best practice to included extra material and increase qty completed?
