Hey all,
    Sometimes we get decimal quantities of discrete parts where it shouldn't be possible, such as 4.000002 screws.  I'm not sure what causes it to happen, but when it does I normally correct the issue using Quantity Adjustment to truncate the portion above the whole number.  It's gotten tricky because we're currently implementing serial number tracked parts for the first time.  Normally to adjust out the nonwhole portion of the quantity, I need to first allow decimals in UOM maintenance, but for the first time trying it today, I got an error message reading "Decimal values are not allowed because this UOM is being used by a serial tracked part."  The part I'm trying to adjust isn't itself serial tracked.  What's the best way to get around this error?  I've grateful for any advice.
Sincerely,
    Ian Fite

I am barely getting into the serial tracking, but I do know that the UOM cannot have decimals.  But since you pointed this out, I need to add a task to verify FIRST all my Onhand Qty and check if there are decimals. I did not think about that before?

 

So to fix your none Serial tracked, I would find all the parts with a decimal and then contact EPICOR to give you a fix…this may be an Epicor consulting fix though.  They need to update the database with a progress script.

Do you have a scrap factor in a % on any BOM’s?
