Tony,
The conversion is in both 6 and 8. We haven't had to run it in 8 yet but
I know it is there.
Jim

Jim,
we're on 8.03.404B, testing 405A and about ready to push it live.
Is that conversion for 8, or did you mean for 6?
This is what I meant in that very first post of mine, I seemed to
remember some kind of problem with the allcoqty field and it needing to
be cleaned up
thanks very much,
Tony

What version are you on? There is a database conversion(6430 if I
remember correctly) that sometimes needed to be run to clean this field
up. If a job was deleted it wasn't always backing all the demand out
like it should have. This happened to us quite a bit on 6.1. We were
able to find it by looking at the detail and seeing then that jobs that
no longer were in the system but were still showing up in the allocqty
field. Could someone else confirm this for me.
Negative inventory can be prevented to a certain degree if you want at
the class level by choosing "stop" for the Negative quantity action.
Jim

That is a good piece of info, and thank you! I will look at unfirm jobs.
But, our districts don't run MRP, so I don't know if that will end up
being my problem
Thank you again!

If you have a part that you always want 5000 in stock at all times, as
soon as it dips below this number a job (if it is a manufactured part)
suggestion should be created. Granted if the job is not firm then you
won't see it in allocated field...I am pretty sure that this has
happened before to us.
Really you would only want to use the Min/Max field for purchased items.

Thank you Manasa.
I have checked order releases and job material, but what do you mean the
Inventory, and min/max fields?
Thanks,
Tony

Tony,
Demand is not always from Sales Orders...it can be from inventory (how
you set up min/max fields on the plant tab) and other jobs.
Check those areas as well.

I have a partwhse record or two come up sometimes with a number in the
Allocqty field, but there are no open sales order releases for that
part.
I could swear I read once (maybe here) that this field was not 100%
reliable, and I cannot remember the reason.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Thank you
Tony
