How to complete a subcontract PO short

Yahoo Archive

Presumably your subcontract OP is back-flush (to match subcontract PO qty rcv'd).

If you are set up to adjust job qty based upon OP yield, receiving the PO as complete (although short) should have closed the OP out and reduced your job qty to 49.

If you aren't using yield recalc, reduce job qty to 49.

Question: Did you send the vendor 50 and only receive 49 (scrap loss of 1)?

If so, you should receive 50 from the PO and scrap one in the inspection process.

Hello group, I need to tap into your wisdom. Our version 8.03.404



We have a job to produce 50 parts and the method is simple: pull

inventory from stock, send it to our subcontractor for value added

work and receive the completed parts back into inventory. The

subcontract PO is received complete for one less than we ordered and

complete the receipt for 49. Last operation in the method is to put

them away in our stock room and labor qty reported 49 complete.



I don't plan to send one more part to the subcontractor.



I don't have a min set on the part but I have a min lot size of 50.



But I'm getting a new PO suggestion for subcontracting for the

original job for another 50, I'm guessing because I received the

original subcontract PO one short of the order? The subcontract op

does not show complete either.



I an looking for a way to make this suggestion go away.



This isn't an unusual situation for us and I'm hoping not for some of

you as well. Anyone have a solution of some kind?



Thanks for considering this.
