Hi,

Previous members explanied about backflush in discreate manufacturing.

In repetetive manufacturing, backflush function is available.

It is a confirmation process, while doing confirmation goods issue will happen automatically in background.

For that no need to set backflush indicator in material master, workcenter or routing. system will capture the setting available from REM profile assigned in material master MRP4 view.

Goods issue will happen by 261 mvt. Goods receipt by 131 mvt.

Regards,

Dharma

Hi,

Back flushing is nothing but automatic goods issue. System will automatically posts the goods issue when you confirm the operations.You have no need to make manual issue. It will reduce the effort.

Backflushing is automatic accounting (Goods issues - 261 mvt) of material consumed for production, at the time of confirmation.

Assy line picks the material from stores/ Assy line and use.

No Physical issue & Manual posting ( Goods Issue) by Stores.

Backflush is used for material which are a must and having fixed relationship.

This can be configured in MRP2 Screen,Work centre, Routing and production order.

Each has some special function.

If you configure this in routing or production order you have no need to activate this in MRP2 or Work center screen.

Hope clears to you assign relevent points for every reply and closed the thread.

Dear Digvijay,

Backflush:

The non-manual posting of an issue of components some time after their physical withdrawal for an order.

The goods issue posting for backflushed components is performed automatically at the time of order

completion confirmation.

The backflush indicator can be set either in the Material Master,Work center or in the routing.

While doing the confirmation automatic GI will be carried out that's 261 movement will be happening along

with 101(Good's Receipt) in Discrete scenario and 131 (Good's Receipt) in REM scenario.

This functionality will be used for Goods issue.

Some of the items like gas can not be drawn the quantityform stores & keep it in production custody .

The gas after consumption the exact qty will be be made to draw while confirming the production.

where as other items can be issued to Production order before starting of production .

Hope it is clear.
