With backflushing these are the quantities, calculated on the basis of the output of the production order or the quantity in the production batch. If this check box is cleared, the item does not originate from the floor stock and costing is based on the actual usage.

You can only select this check box if the item is a serialized item. An item is serialized if, in the Item Defaults (tcibd0102m000) session, the Serialized check box is selected for the item. Serials in Inventory If this check box is selected, the low volume scenario is used, which means that serial numbers are individually stored in inventory. You can view the serial numbers in inventory in the Item - Serials and Warehouses (whltc5100m000) session. Note Select this check box for low volume environments in which intensive tracking of serialized items, throughout the goods flow, is required and where each serialized item must be handled individually. Clear this check box for high volume environments in which serialized items do not require tracking throughout the goods flow, individual handling, and storage in inventory. If serials are stored in inventory, you cannot enable backflushing in Manufacturing. For more information, refer to Backflush Materials.

If the value of this field is Yes, you must register the serial numbers of received serialized items in the Receipt Line Lots and Serials (whinh3123m000) session. If the value of this field is No, the option to register serial numbers of received serialized items during receipt is not available. Registration of received serial numbers can be useful in tracking what happens to which serial, for example, during inspection. If you access the Receipt Line Lots and Serials (whinh3123m000) session from the Warehouse Inspections Overview (whinh3122m000) session, you can view and maintain serial numbers for items that must be rejected or destroyed.
