Inventory Recalculation creating unwanted, large adjustments

We track financial inventory by Site & Batch number; Inventory model is weighted avg. with include physical value.

In the above screenshot, the original production order was still in production (multiple batch numbers) and could not be ended before month's end inventory closing. But this particular batch number was shipped and subsequent returned for rework - the rework production order ended before month's end - we have a lot of rework in our industry.

We use BOM journals to convert an item to a different item number (ATD -> ATD-RW) for it to be included in the BOM of the rework production order.

During inventory recalculation, we set the maximum throughputs to 5 and the minimum throughput adjustment to be 10, and result returns many unwanted and large adjustments. From my observation, it seems that the larger the max. throughputs, the larger the adjustment values.

We are currently in our 7th month since going live with AX 2012 R3, and have not been able to figure out a solution to this; our inventory value reports are a big mess right now due to large number of unwanted adjustments

I'm guessing the rework process creates a circular BOM and that's what causing the wrong adjustment values. Does anyone have any insight on how to fix & avoid this issue?

Thanks very much ~

    Hi JeffreyY,

    Have you run the inventory recalculation with other parameter settings for the max. throughputs and min. adjustment values for example in a test system to see what difference this makes?

    Can you also let us know what AX2012 version you use?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Ludwig,

    We have tried recalculations with different max. throughtputs: 10, 20, 50, 100, 500. It seems to me that the larger the max throughput, the more ridiculous the adjustment values on problematic transactions. (Our currency is TWD)

    Hi Jeffrey

    In that example, if you 'End' production order MF0018533 and then run recalculation again, does the cost of the BOM line transaction become correct?

    Hi Guy,

    If I end the original production before running recalculation, the adjustment values are still not correct, but much smaller than what it was before. I'm guessing it is because the effect from the "loop" is less since it now has two receipts to settle from?
