It is necessary to specify, for the product, when it is defined as material for a finished or semi-finished product:
- whether it has to be consumed upon tracking the work order (immediate consumption),
- or whether it can be consumed upon closing the work order (post-consumption).
Two parameters from the material tracking transaction are associated with the issue mode: upon material tracking, it is possible to filter the materials to be proposed for consumption in the transaction (« post consumption / immediate / all stock issue » in the materials tab in the tacking transaction).
These parameters are:
- Immediate: in the tracking transaction, it is possible to impose a detailed entry of the material consumption (parameter Strict manual issue).
- Post consumption: the products will be consumed upon closing the work order. They can be excluded from the manual material issue entry on WO.
- No management: for a product not managed in stock.
