Sequence of material issue / backflushing

Infor LN SP1

In Infor LN SP1, if you are handling more than one production order, material is first issued or backflushed for the production order with the lowest production order number. The production order start date is not taken into account when issueing or backflushing material.

Infor LN FP2

In Infor LN FP2, backflushing or issueing material for production orders can also be determined by the production order start date.

A production order with a high production order number can have an production start date that is earlier than a production order with a low production order number. In that case you might want to issue or backflush material for the production order with the earliest start date first. Therefore, you can choose between two sequences in which material must be issued or backflushed for production orders:

  • Based on Start Dates
  • Based on Order Numbers

Use the Issue Sequence field in the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to determine the sequence in which material is issued.

Use the Backflush Sequence field in the Backflush Materials and Hours (tisfc0220m000) session to determine the sequence in which material is backflushed.
