Report Outside Operation

Explanation

This activity is used to backflush outside operations and automatically process the purchase order receipt depending on the outside operation backflush type. This activity can be used as an alternative to the pick list and ship work in process activities.

If Purchase Order Arrival has been selected as the outside operation backflush option for a released outside operation, and if the pegged purchase order line has also been released, it is possible to backflush the ship work in progress (WIP) to supplier and the purchase order arrival activities.

Note: Outside operation backflush will be used automatically to backflush the ship work in progress (WIP) to the supplier. Purchase order arrival activities to report the preceding outside operations on a routing with sequential outside operations, can be done if the Send To Next Supplier option has been enabled for the preceding outside operation. For more details about the Send To Next Supplier option, refer to the Subcontracting topic description
