In Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, backflushing is a material consumption principle that is used when the consumption of raw materials is automated and linked to a production order. Backflushing automatically reduces the inventory of raw materials as the finished goods are produced.
In the case of unintended scrap, the operators need to report this issue so that the production order can be adjusted accordingly. There are two possible ways to achieve this goal:
Report an error quantity at Report as finished: When the finished goods are reported as finished, the operator can report an error quantity to indicate the amount of unintended scrap. To do this, the operator needs to select the Report as finished option in the Production control workspace and enter the error quantity in the Scrap field. This will adjust the production order and inventory accordingly.
Report additional time in route card journal: Another way to report unintended scrap is by reporting additional time in the route card journal. This option is useful when the operator needs to account for the additional time required to handle the scrap. To do this, the operator needs to select the Route card journal option in the Production control workspace and enter the additional time in the Time field. This will adjust the production order and cost accordingly.
Option B (Post additional materials in a picking list journal) and Option D (Report an additional good quantity at Report as finished) are not correct ways to report unintended scrap. Posting additional materials in a picking list journal will increase the material consumption, which is not appropriate for scrap reporting. Reporting an additional good quantity at Report as finished will overstate the finished goods production and inventory, which will lead to incorrect inventory levels and accounting.
