Infor LN & Baan Tip: Can You Backflush An Item If Estimated Quantity is Zero?

Yes, you can backflush an item with an estimated quantity = 0.00 if you haven't already backflushed the order.

For example, you had an order with one component, you reported the quantity at the operation or order level and ran the backflush. Now you realize you need another component added. In this example, the order has already been backflushed, so if you were to add a second component, run backflushing, nothing would happen.

Backflushing is based on the 'quantity to backflush' in report operations or report orders complete. When the quantity is backflushed, the 'quantity to be backflushed' has been reset to 0.00. With a 0.00 quantity, there is nothing left to backflush so nothing happens. 

In this case, you would have to issue the part through warehousing, just as you would have to do if you had a shortage during the backflushing process. If backflushing hasn't already been attempted, you can backflush a component with zero estimated quantity, after you have reported operations or order complete.

Operations: Outside Operation Purchase Order Include Vendor Item Number

Copy the vendor item number from the vendor quote to purchase orders created automatically from outside operations of shop orders. During the process of automatically creating purchase orders from outside operations of shop orders, copy the vendor item number from the vendor quote to the purchase order line. With this change, looking at a purchase order that was created automatically for an outside operation of a shop order, the vendor item number from the vendor quote will be visible on the purchase order line.
