I have a production order with 5 different OP IDs (0010 to 0050). In OP ID 0020, Part A is consumed. At OP ID 0040, it was discovered that Part A was not made correctly and it needs to be scrapped and replaced with a correct Part A. What’s the best way to go about solving this issue?

Part A is a component?  Raw material?  

You could create a material transaction for the negative quantity.  This would remove it from the production order an increase the quantity remaining.

The negative transaction would put the item back to stock - so you would want to issue it out of inventory if no longer usable.  (Inventory Issue Transaction).

You would then need to create a material transaction for a positive quantity to issue the good part to the production order operation.

@angierowley75 I hadn’t thought about a negative material transaction - that worked perfectly. Thanks!
