When you created the M1 transaction and attempted to use if for
backflushing by chasing the BOM and not using the shop order as the
vehicle for transacting the inventory movement, BPCS will not
function as you would like. SFC500 (shop order create) has the
logic built in to review the BOM and if at the time of shop order
release the QOH of the phantom is below the requirements of the
components for the material allocations, then the system will use
the logic and chase the BOM and allocate the components for the
phantom to the shop order. INV500 does not have the logic built in
to look for the components of the phantom. This is still true in
the latest version of the software.


QOH = Quantity on hand (I assume)???
OK, I will accept that INV500 doesn't have the logic for phantoms. Where
does it backflush components then if the shop order does exist? It
backflushes everything else without a shop order. Does SFC500 create FMA
records tied to the shop order and then INV500 uses those to know what
components to backflush?
