Hi Ashis,

Each material component is assigned to an operation in the production order. If a material component is backflushed, the system posts the withdrawal only upon confirmation of the operation. The withdrawal is then posted automatically {Backflushing is automatic accounting (Goods issues - 261 mvt) of material consumed for production, at the time of confirmation.}.

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

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