I found that Backflush deduct qty from In Bin. It does not deduct qty from Backflush Bin. May you help me check is it I have any mistake?
According to Epicor Help, it follows this hierarchy
Backflush material quantities are reported complete at the job operation level. When the Epicor application performs material backflushing at the job operation level, it uses the following hierarchy to determine how the associated component materials should be backflushed, after labor is entered:
1. If job material is linked to a Planning Contract, then uses the warehouse/bin if defined for the Planning Contract.
o If job material is not linked to a Planning Contract, then:
2. Uses the input warehouse/bin (Input Warehouse and Bin fields located on the Resource Group Maintenance > Resources > Detail sheet) of the Resource used to report labor to the job operation and if the available quantity on hand is greater than zero.
o If an inadequate available inventory balance exists in the input warehouse/bin (Input Warehouse and Bin fields located on the Resource Group Maintenance > Resources > Detail sheet) or none Resource location has been defined, then:
3. Uses the input warehouse/bin (Input Warehouse and Bin fields located on the Resource Group Maintenance > Detail sheet) of the Resource Group used to report labor to the job operation and if the available quantity on hand is greater than zero.
o If an inadequate available inventory balance exists in the input warehouse/bin (Input Warehouse and Bin fields located on the Resource Group Maintenance > Detail sheet) or none Resource Group location has been defined, then:
4. Uses the backflush warehouse/bin (Backflush Warehouse and Bin fields located on the Resource Group Maintenance > Resources > Detail sheet) of the Resource used to report labor to the job operation.
o If none Backflush warehouse/bin location Resource has been defined, then:
5. Uses the backflush warehouse/bin (Backflush Warehouse and Bin fields located on the Resource Group Maintenance > Detail sheet) of the Resource Group used to report labor to the job operation.
o If none Backflush warehouse/bin location Resource Group has been defined, then:
6. Uses the Primary Bin defined in the primary bin field located in Warehouse Maintenance for the associated job material warehouse regardless of the unit of measure for the component part being backflushed.
o If none Primary Bin has been defined, then:
7. Uses a Part Bin associated to the job material warehouse using the same tracking UOM for the component part being backflushed and if the available quantity on hand is greater than zero.
o If an inadequate available inventory balance exists in a warehouse bin, using the same inventory unit of measure defined for the component part being backflushed, or none Part Bin location has been defined, then:
8. Uses the First Bin in the job material warehouse that has an available quantity, regardless of unit of measure.
o If an inadequate available inventory balance exists in a warehouse bin for the Inventory, or none First Bin location has been defined, then:
9. Do not backflush material.

Hi Craig,
Thanks for your explanation. May I know is it possible to preset backflush default bin for certain partnum?
