Adjust WIP and PartBIN.FromOprSeq

Right now if an operator makes an error entering data into MES, like over reporting quantity, we are fixing the labor entry VIA Time and Expense Entry. This corrects the labor entry, but does not do anything with the qty in WIP. A thought was to use Adjust WIP to correct the quantity, but I am noticing when we do this, the FromOprSeq field in PartWIP is changing from the appropriate code, to 0 once the adjustment is made.

I use this field in some BAQs/Dashboards to display data about jobs/wip quantities that are waiting on certain operations. Before I go rewriting anything, I was wondering if anyone had any insight into a better workflow/way to correct these mistakes?

FWIW - here are couple ways I’ve made corrections beside Time & Expense

  • MES - clock in with the EmpID. enter a reversing tran and then renter correctly
  • Job Adjustment(s) - especially handy when labor/qtys are already posted

BTW…if an issue is not routine/straightforward… then I might refresh a test system and verify my fix before committing to live.

Job Adjustment seemed promising but it doesn’t seem to do anything about the WIP qty either.
