Production - Report as Finished Journal option Accept error

Report

Posted on by Henry Baaijens

In the Production order Defaults tab Report as Finished you have an option under Report as Finished Journal "Accept error".

The option is also available on Production Control Parameters under tab Journals.

When setting the Accept error to Yes it allows you to report more then started. For the customer I am currently working for this is a very common scenario, they do not have a discrete manufacturing process, but a process where they never know exactly upfront what will be the output. Summarizes the starting quantity will never match the RAF quantity.

The material consumption backflush methods for the batchorders we use is either "Manual" or "Finish" depending on the type of material. For the material with backflushing method "Finish" the posted quantities are correct, it is in-line with the RAF quantities. which means the expected quantities of material are posted based on the RAF quantities. The materials with backflushing method "Manual" are manual posted, the quantities are determined by the user, in some cases the materials are weighed and the weighed quantity is posted.

Now my question: Is using "Accept error" the correct setting in the described scenario or is there another setting to consider? What other implications does this setting have? The naming "Accept error" is in my opinion a bit confusing.

Hello Henry,

Please look also into the options available in Production order defaults > Quantity validation.

Hello , the link provided do not apply to your scenario unless you are using the manufacturing execution module which does not seem to be the case.

Accept error ticket allows you to set the order to Report As Finished without checking the quantity expected to be produced and consumed.

In other words you can force the closure of the order.

By using this flag there is the risk of under-consuming materials essentially

Hi Henry,

Have you now completed this implementation?

In our scenario, for one batch order we can RAF multiple times. Everything that comes off the final machine is batch and serial-controlled.

We have an issue where the 'Accept Error' quantity is given on a new transaction line. Therefore, a new serial. Even in the case we have forced the same serial, when it comes to picking the over produced amount cant be found in the stock.

Hi,

The Accept error is, if you do not want to receive an error log if inconsistencies occur in the production process, such as inconsistencies in the number of items produced or in the raw materials that are delivered for production. Clear the check box to receive an error log. The following issues are validated in the error log:

The quantity that is reported as finished is less than or equal to the quantity that was started on the production order.

All operations in the production route have been reported as finished.

All estimated materials have been delivered.

The quantity that is reported as finished for the production order equals the quantity that is reported as finished for the last operation in the route.

This may clarify you the definition of "Accept Error". Further in my opinion you do not have to do any other setting as this best describes your case. Hope this helps you. Thanks.
