We are having issues where a backflushed material is showing the transaction against inventory, i.e. -30 qty and then we have another transaction for that same job material that shows +30qty back into inventory even though it was just consumed on the job.
This is causing us to lose visibility of our inventory and we are having shortages because our on hand quantities are not correct.
Not sure if it’s related, but most movements from one location to another
has both a + and - transaction, one to remove it from the first location
and the other to add it to the new location. What is the transaction type?
Backflushing is triggered by the quantity completed on the operation the material is related to. It could be somebody is reporting a quantity completed, and later adjusting it. That would cause it to backflush and then later “unbackflush”.
