How to force a Subcontract Operation complete?

What is the cause of the shortage? If the subsidiary is not going to
return the remaining quantity due to their own scrap rate (acceptable
or not), you should be able receive the balance to the job and reject
the quantity they scrapped. Basically, the subcontact scrap is
treated the same as scrap from an internal work center. You started
with 100 piece in process and now you have 96. You just may not have
the defective parts physically on hand.

As with other vendors, receiving the entire quantity will close the
PO. "Returning" the bad parts and creating a Debit Memo will balance
out the money really owed to subsidiary.

Let me know if you would like to discuss this further.

We have a subsidiary in China where we have started to send selected
jobs for finishing. The problem is how to get the Subcontract
Operation to show as complete when the qty returned by the subsidiary
is less than the qty originally sent? Unlike an ordinary operation,
there is no Labor Entry on which to check the Operation Complete box.
Any suggestions?
Open the last reciept and flag it as received complete.

We have a subsidiary in China where we have started to send selected
jobs for finishing. The problem is how to get the Subcontract
Operation to show as complete when the qty returned by the subsidiary
is less than the qty originally sent? Unlike an ordinary operation,
there is no Labor Entry on which to check the Operation Complete box.
Any suggestions?
