Scrap
Record material or output that is wasted.
Early access. Manufacturing can be installed from the App Store, but it is still being proven in real use, so this screen may change.
Overview
A scrap record writes off quantity that cannot be used, with a reason code. It is recorded from the order’s Output tab, and waste is never silently deleted. Scrap can be recorded from the floor or from stock, and scrap goes through an approval with separation of duties, so the person who records the scrap does not approve it. Quantity can be written off from the floor or from stock.
When to use scrap
- Material is damaged or output fails inspection.
Step by step
In the Manufacturing module open Production in the green navigation bar, then choose Scrap under Output & WIP.
