Backflushing Serialized Material for Job Operations

Use the Backflush Serials form to backflush serialized lot material to job operations. While working on an operation and reporting quantities, click Backflush Serials on the parent transaction form if any BOM item exists that is lot-controlled and designated for backflushing.

You can access the Backflush Serials form using the Backflush Serials option in these forms:
  • End Run
  • Job Move
  • End Just-in-Time
  • End Production Schedule

Reversing the Quantity: The form displays the list of serial numbers issued for the current BOM item and allows the user to receive the linked serials into the inventory. The list of serials always represents the serials without inventory status and issued to current job operation.

The Select Range check box option enables the user to select the first available serials on the right-side grid for the current BOM Item qty that are selected on the left side grid.

  1. Click Backflush Serials on the parent transaction form.
  2. Select an operation in the Backflush Item section for which material must be backflushed. This information is displayed for each operation:

  3. Select one or more serials in the Backflush Item Inventory section from which material must be backflushed. You must backflush a total quantity of serial numbers that matches the backflush quantity of the operation.
