We've always had problems with allocation fields, and we schedule the
standard I/M audits each night - it really helps.

Do an IM, 7 (File Maintenance), and run options:

 10. On-Order Quantity Audit
 11. Allocation Quantity Audit

We also do a location audit every night:

IM, 7, 9, and then:

 6. Location Quantity Audit

This isn't anything new, we've done this since the MAPICS II days back in
1987.  No idea why they get hosed (I have always been real suspicious of
"RS" transactions personally with regards to this), but they get off a
LOT.

Hope this helps!

Hi Group,

I have a situation where an item shows a quantity of 8,469 for Pending
Manufacturing Allocations on the IM Inquiry screens.    There's no way we
actually have that huge quantity allocated for this item.    I can't see
the
detail that makes up that number anywhere.      I've queried every file I
can think of and can't find that qty for that item (nothing remotely close
to that total).    I zeroed out the PALOC field in ITEMBL and then ran the
"Allocation Quantity Audit" on the IM File Maintenance menu.   After the
audit was done, the 8,469 is back in PALOC!!    Help!!    Does anyone know
what file(s)/field(s) I need to query in order to find that Pending
Allocation Qty?    I've looked in MOMAST, MODATA, SLALLO, ORDATAM,
ORDATAC,
ORDATM(all members), ORDATC(all members), MBCDREP.

Thanks in advance,
