MRP handling of partially shipped/partially backordered SO lines

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

My client reported some items where the PAB does not show open backorder demand.  MRP is configured to put SO back orders in firm buckets.  This is what appears to be happening:

  1. If you partially ship a line item (ex: ordered 10, shipped 6, backordered 4);
  2. And you transfer and post the invoice;
  3. And you do NOT create a separate new backordered document but rather just leave the remaining lines on the order open;
  4. You will have a backorder quantity of 4, a fulfilled quantity of zero;
  5. BUT you will still have a date fulfilled.
  6. MRP sees the date fulfilled and the fulfilled quantity of zero and IGNORES the demand.

When I blank out the fulfilled date on the SO line and run a MRP regeneration, the demand shows up as expected.  The client really does not want to have to use backorder documents (they prefer keeping the backordered items on the original order).  I don't want to have to use scripts to bank out the date fulfilled on backordered lines.  

Has anyone else observed this behavior and found better solutions?
