Introduction
Key Usage Scenario’s
With a focus on process manufacturing, this extension is meticulously designed to address the unique challenges encountered in production operations, such as backflushing for lot-tracked items.
The standard backflush functionality is enhanced to automatically calculate and post lot-tracked items when using the backward flushing method. Additionally, it extends to automatically assign item tracking codes at all possible steps of the production process.
This extension supports the following key usage scenarios:
- Automated Consumption Tracking in Production Orders
- Managing Expiry-sensitive Inventory with FEFO (First Expired, First Out)
- Preventing Errors Due to Insufficient Inventory
- Managing Blocked Lots and Packages
- Handling Bin and Location Codes During Backflushing
