Erwin,
I would recommend you don't let the system backflush multi part jobs. Its logic to figure out what to backflush doesn't hold up when you book in amounts to stock that would otherwise not consist of 1 "Cycle" on the machine, even then its a bit flaky. Furthermore, if you auto receive into inventory and then amend the labour record qty for some reason the system just books into stock the new finished amount and doesn't "Undo" the previous amount(Still happens in E9).
With all of the above faulty logic in the mod this will cause issues with Cost of Sales and your balance sheet. The work around ATM is to do everything manually.
Test this very well!
We are on Vantage 8.3.408b.
If you have any questions feel free to shoot me an email.
