Production Order - Finished Goods showing negative value for Good Quantity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 27

For our production we have a requirement to go back into a production order several times and update the Good Quantity.

We have noticed that if we over produce the amount originally stated on the production order that the next time we go into report as finished the Good Quantity has gone to negative.  Is this expected behaviour?

Thanks

    Thank you both for your help with this, we had been told this was not standard functionality but it made perfect sence to me that it would be.

    Thanks again

    Hi GillOliver,

    What you see is what AX normally does.

    What is your expectation?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi GillOliver,

    What you see (negative quantity) is the expected behavior as system try to convey the message back to user that you have "-x" quantity  already reported as finished that is greater than what you started production order with. As you may know, it can still be updated with +ve qty and reported as finished.

    Thanks,
