Transaction Effect RJ

[MacWheel99@xxxxxxx]

I know that many BPCS programs process various inventory transactions
according to logic in the program such that the transaction effect rules are
a bit of a sham, while some transactions are processed according to some of
the rules in the effects.  I just do not have a clear mental picture of the
differences.

I found by accident that this effect does nothing to inventory ... no issues,
no multiple issues, no adjustments, nothing.

I had always thought that it consumed components corresponding to the item
being reported in JIT600 as scrap, and if we had a data reporting /
transcribing problem, we could back that out via negative RJ in INV500 for
scrap & negative PR & multi-issue for quantity made, being sensitive to the
operation actually consuming the material.

I went to the BPCS documentation on 405 CD for inventory transactions &
compared what it had for the default settings for every transaction effect we
had, and our current settings, and every time I found a difference, I looked
up the significance of that field.  In general I was in total agreement with
our changes.

However, our RJ is identical to what 405 CD documentation says it is out of
the box from SSA which I am thinking is a bug.

I am hoping that JIT600 logic processes this correctly ... when the scrap is
reported, if that is the operation that consumes the components, it does a
multiple issue against all the components going into that operation.  I have
not traced the logic on this scenario but have looked at it in the past &
what seemed to be happening, was correctly computing PR & issues math, then
saying, oh this or that is PR CI RJ

I suspect INV500 relies heavily on the rules in the transaction effects, so
that where we would be at risk would be in corrections to labor transactions
that involved scrap.

Or am I totally off the wall here?
Does JIT600 issue CI multiple issue for both PR and RJ reporting, in which RJ
is merely a record that CI occurred, and is not supposed to be done on INV500
at all.
