No Pick required for Pick + Forward component flushing

Posted on by 9
It seems that /Pick + Forward/ flushing doesn't require a pick. Is this correct or am I missing something?
I have set up an Item with a Production BOM where all components are set to Pick + Forward flushing. The location is configured for directed pick and put-away.
On the Firm Planned Production Order there is no function to generate a pick (or warehouse movement) that would ensure there are enough components in my consumption bin.
Note that the production order cannot be released unless there is enough of each component in the respective consumption bins to complete the production order. Finally, if there are enough components in the consumption bins the Firm Planned Production Order will release and consume the components without requiring a pick to be generated.
The Microsoft docs on this topic pretty clearly state that there must be enough quantity in the bins to complete the production order.
 
From what I can see Bin replenishment needs to be done manually or rely on Bin min max settings to ensure required qty is available. Alternatively, I need to customize to add the pick functionality to the Firm Planned Prod. Order.

    Here's a screenshot of the error when releasing the Firm Planned Production Order:

     
    ... and here's the error when releasing the Firm Planned Production with fixed bins for each component in the Production Zone:

    If you enabled Require Pick in Location card you can generate pick for a production order. If the "Directed Putway - pick " is enabled that direct the bin locations for registering pick and put away. Generally the Pick and consumption is creating from or against a Released Production Order not from Firm Planned Order. Creating a Pick document is not validated and restricted by item  stock availability, but it should be available to complete and register the Pick and consumption journal posting. 
     
    Hope this help you...
