customer comes first...if you firm uses EDI interface with the customer, and
the customer has your MAPICS SA number listed in his EDI PO receipt file,
interfacing with the customers whole receipt, stock payables,...and all is bar
coded,....shipping 242 of 250 leaves the customer with an MRP open issue,
etc....
ask not what MAPICS can do for you, but ask what you can do for the customer
if you use MAPICS...

You all are having waaay too much enjoyment about the flogging! ;-)
1. I believe this is one of those "We've always done it this way"
situations. This is the first time this specific issue has popped up in the little over
a year that I have been here. I will address the maintenance process.
2. I have worked with 3 major systems over the years and they all had some
kind of allocation scrubber..."just because"...go figure...
Thanks to all and don't hold your breathe about YouTube!

Subject: Re: [MAPICS-L] MRP Puzzler...
A couple of questions:
1. Why did you change the quantity from 250 to 242 instead of just canceling
the order/line item. If this line item is complete it should not be in the
mbcdrep file. Unless the order has other line items open, which is probably
the case. When you change the quantity to match was has been shipped the
status changes on the release and line item, but the order/line item doesn't
remove from the open files. Can you delete a line item on an order after it has
had partial shipment when there are still other open line items on the order?
2. Why do we have to run the 'audit allocation' and 'audit location' and
'audit on order' at all? Shouldn't XA do this automatically when needed? Every
once in a while we have a problem that shows up and this fixes it. It is
very frustating to have to tell users do this and it will fix the problem
without knowing the why.
3. I can't make it to the flogging, can you record it and put it on YouTube?

My apologies to this august list.
It was NOT a blanket line, just a regular CO line item. Quantity was
originally 250, we shipped 242, reduced the order qty to 242 and cancelled the B/O.
We were getting a planned order for the 8 on "backorder."
Last night I ran the 'audit allocation' and 'audit location' and 'audit on
order' and then re-ran MRP and it seems to be calculating planned orders
correctly now, but I still show 8 on back order in the CO line view in field
"Backorder quantity" cdz902.
Thoughts?
Thanks and sorry for the misleading information; I will have my planner
publicly flog me at high noon today.
Cheers!
