Re-Issue Material to Different Job

Epicor ERP 10

Hello Epigurus,

We have a job that was issued excess material via a buy-to-job PO. How can we re-issue this material to be used in a different job? The material was never set up as an official part in part entry. My thoughts were to job adjust the excess material out, create the material part in part entry, do a quantity adjustment for the new material part at the PO cost, then issue material from inventory to other job. Does anyone know of a better way? Would it be possible to keep the material from hitting inventory?

Any input is always appreciated!

If the PO receipt hasn’t been invoiced yet, I would:

  1. Un-receive the PO
  2. Re-open PO, correct the qty for the original Job, and add a new BTJ PO line for other job.
  3. Re-receive the shipment, as two lines (one for each BTJ PO line).

If it has been invoiced (thus preventing you from un-receiving it), you could try using Job Adjustment.

These will create ADJ-MTL transactions, which if done right will exactly offset each other.

And printing the Job Production Detail report will show the transactions and their affect on the job totals

Calvin, thanks for sharing your wisdom. Greatly appreciated. Unfortunately the PO line has gone through inspection processing, so we can’t un-receive it. Job adjustment it is!
