Manually enter co-product quantity in batch order

Posted on by Fabrice Marletaz

Hello,

One of my customers has the following need.

They produce chemical components via batches. this chemical component is produced in the form of vials of 2 or 4 ml.

Each batch produces a variable quantity of 2 ml vials and 4 ml vials. The 2 ml vials and 4 ml vials are represented by 2 different items in AX.

I've created a formula with 2ml vials as item output and the 4ml vial item as a co-product (With a quantity of 1 per serie of 1)

Now the problem I face, is that if I enter a batch quantity of 100, the co-product quantity is also 100. And I don't know how to change this quantity.

I would like to be able to say that I produced 102 2 ml vials and 116 4 ml vials.

Is there a way to do this in AX2012?

Thank you

Best regards,

Fabrice

Hi

The quantity that you put on the Formula, or the quantity on the production order do not have to limit or dictate how many you can say you produced (report as finish).If your production order is for 100 x 2ml and 100 x 4ml you can still report as finished 102 x 2ml and 116 x 4ml (you might need to tick Accept error when you do the Report as finished).
