How to do backflushing...

[Former Member]

Dear consultants,

I want to have a material to get backflushed.. i.e when confirming the order, The stock of that backflush material has to decrease..

In the material master I have put the indicator for backflushing. In the Prod.Order BOm also , The material is having the B/F indicator.. at the time of doing GI the material is not appearing in the list as it is a B/F material..

So i think everything is ok... But when i confirm the order, the stock of the material is not decreasing..i.e it is not posted automatically..

Can anybody make me get away from this issue....

Thanks ..

Karthik,

As you said that you have maintained the backflush indicators in the routing & same gets copied to the production order also, then you have done the right thing.

Just one thing you need to maintain is you have to enter the production storage location in the material master of the components or in the BOM of FG against the components. Same shall be copied to the production order.

Now while doing confirmation with order level or operation level you nedd to click on the goods movement tab, then system will take you the goods movement overview, then you have to save that confirmation.

The backfulshing will happen.

If any problem arises you can rectify the same in COGI.

Also you have a choice to terminate the confirmation if goods movement fails, the setting are in confirmation parameters for specific production order types in the 'General individual entry' tab page. T code is OPK4.

In case you don't want to do the backflush, remove the indicators from the production order & those components will be visible in MB1A.

Hope you clear with this.

Hi,

In ur Order type confirmation parameters, in the Individual Entry general Tab/ Error handling (Logs), activate Goods movements and termination for incorrect goods movement.

Create a fresh Prd ord after these settings and check the message being displayed

Karthick,

Couple of checks I would suggest,

1. Check whether your components are assigned to the operation that you are trying to confirm.

2. Check COGI and CO1P transactions for the order to ascertain whether any goods movement error records exits. If exits clear them based on the error message given.

3. If above 2points are ok, then it must be an authorisation problem. Deflag the backflush indicator and then try manually posting 261 movement using MB1A transaction and see whether you are able to post.

Dear,

Please check with "All components" check box at OPK4 for order type/plant combination. "Select the check box" and check with Goods movement screen at CO11n befor confirmation.

Create new prod order and check the effect.

Hi,

Check if all component issue (Goods movement tab) is ticked in confirmation parameter (OPK4)

Check in COGI, if there is any error log for this material.
