Backflushing Lot Material for Job Operations

Use the Backflush Lots form to issue backflush lot material to job operations. If you are working on an operation and completing material for an item that is lot-controlled and designated for backflushing, you can open the Backflush Lots form by selecting Backflush Lots on the parent transaction form. The Backflush Lots form can be opened from these parent transactions: End Run, Job Move, and Job Receipt.

    • item number and description
    • Target Qty: quantity required
    • Selected Qty: quantity currently being backflushed for the operation
  3. In the Backflush Item Inventory section, select one or more lots from which to backflush material. This information is displayed for each lot:
    • lot number
    • unit of measure
    • on hand quantity
  4. In the Selected Qty field for each selected lot, specify the quantity to backflush. You must backflush a total quantity that matches the backflush quantity of the operation.
