Production order report as finish w/Batch bnumber

Posted on by Community Member

When posting a production order report as finished journal with a batch number AX is creating multiple batch numbers for the one receipt. I was expecting only one Batch number for the entire quantity. Any suggestions on the issue/fix?

Thanks.

RE: Production order report as finish w/Batch bnumber

Hi JMO,

This is controlled by the setup on the 'Number group'. Can you go to the Item which you are Reporting as finished, and from the 'Manage inventory' fast tab, go to the Batch number group that is set. Can we get a screenshot of the settings on the 'Number group'.

Do you mean that you would like all the RaFs on one production order to share the same Batch number? If so, untick 'Only for inventory transactions'.

With this setting we have been able to RAF and get one batch number for the entire receipt and other times we get multiple batch numbers for one receipt.

With 'Only for inventory transactions' un-ticked, the Batch number will be assigned to the production order when the production order is created. In this way, all RaFs should inherit the same Batch number as the production order. Can you provide details of an example where this did not happen?

Thats because you're generating a new batch number per RAF. If you RAF the entire order in one transaction, you get one batch number. If you do multiple RAF's, you're going to get multiple batch numbers.

If you follow Guy's recommendation and untick "only for inventory transactions", the batch number will create when the production order is created, and you will see the batch number on the Inventory Dimensions of the production order.

One thing to watch for with the proposed setup is the Date portion of your batch number will be the scheduled finish date of the production order, not the date that it is actually RAF'ed. That can be problematic.

If you do need the Date portion of the batch to be when the production order was RAF'ed, leave the settings as you have them. If you have multiple RAF's to do, have the user manually select the same batch number as the first RAF when they do RAF # 2,3,4, etc.
