When too many items are incorrectly completed to a work order, there is currently no way to back those parts out. This causes the cost of the item to be reported wrong and it overstates inventory.

Comments

  • Work order completion transactions cannot be negative. If negatives were allowed we could simply reverse by entering a negative transaction qty.

  • Overstating the quantity complete on the work order understates the cost associated with the product; and causes costing to be overstated on other work orders

  • The system needs to allow correction of errors that are likely to occur in a way that maximizes data integrity.
