Re: Unprocessed Labor Tickets

We have lots other things that can go wrong with processing labor tickets,
which may have nothing to do with your scenario, or could be unique to BPCS
version or where we have done modifications.

Eg. During the posting of a batch via JIT620, the job can hang, if the data
it got to is tied up thanks to some other user dedicated access to some
record. No one reads the error messages, they almost always take the
default option, which is not always best for a given scenario. So we get a
batch cancelled 1/2 way thru the process. Then, without consulting with IT,
they try to process the batch again.

There's a bug in BPCS to complicate the mess. As the tickets in a batch get
posted, there's a flag saying "Yes, this labor got posted" so that input
does not get duplicated, but there is no such flag for the inventory, so in
this scenario, we can have inventory double posted.

Subject: [BPCS-L] Unprocessed Labor Tickets

I have a situation with Labor Tickets in BPCS that aren't getting
processed  and
I was wondering if any of you can point me into the right direction of what
to
check. And if I understand correctly if the labor tickets dont get fully
process
then that means some of the mateiral dont get backflush correct?  I created
a
report that runs at the end of the day that list all the labor tickets with
a
status code of '1S'. I believe that code represents Locked and waiting to be

processed?  The finished material has beed issued so those records should
have a
P=Posted on them. And when I check the Shop Order on some of them the
qauntity
remainging is zero but some of the Labor tickets dont have a P=Posted beside
the
tickets.


Any idea what could be causing those Labor Tickets not to get posted and I'm

assuming I would  have to go manually posted those tickets to flush the
material
out the system but I would like to determine the cause of the problem.


Thanks in advance,
