When the manufacturing process is completed, the produced quantity must be registered in the inventory on-hand. The dimensions should be available for consultation from the inventory transactions and the Report As Finished journal to enable the posting verification against the proper dimensions.
Life Sciences Supply Chain Management extends D365 standard functionalities to allow displaying one line for each inventory dimension combination in the report as finished journal (Production control > Production orders > All production orders > View Tab > Reported as finished) when registering material via mobile device.
For example, if four sub-batches have been produced as part of a batch order and the material has been registered via mobile device, four lines will be available in the report as finished journal, one for each sub-batch.
When reporting as finished a batch order with the End job option enabled, an additional report as finished journal is created and posted for a single line with the Report as finished checkbox enabled and Good quantity set to “0”.
If the Allow RAF more than started parameter (Production control > Setup > Production control parameters) is enabled, Life Sciences Supply Chain Management provides the capability to over-report as finished a quantity, keeping the standard validations while posting the Report as finished journal (that is, Accept error parameter disabled). In fact, according to Microsoft standard behavior (that is, Allow RAF more than started disabled) if the Accept error parameter is disabled it is not possible to over-report as finished a quantity, while if the Accept error parameter is enabled it is possible over-report as finished the manufactured quantity, but all the other standard validations are not applied.
The validation rules for the acceptance of the over-reported as finished quantity are defined in the Production order defaults form (Production control > Setup > Manufacturing execution > Production order defaults):
Validate feedback quantity parameter: if enabled, it is possible to define a logic for the validation of the reported as finished quantity in the Feedback validation method If disabled, no check is performed, and any quantity can be reported as finished.
Feedback validation method: users can select against which quantity the reported as finished quantity must be validated (for example, Production started quantity).
Note
Life Sciences Supply Chain Management Accept RAF more than started parameter has been developed only to be compatible with the Production started quantity option.
Accept surplus production parameter: if enabled, it is possible to define a percentage in the Accepted surplus percentage to validate the reported as finished quantity. For example, if the Feedback validation method is Production started quantity, and the Accept surplus percentage is 10, if the started quantity is “100” it will be possible to report as finished up to a quantity of “110”. If more than “110” is reported as finished, the system will display an error and block the process.
