Dear Experts,

I've noticed that on a production order in "ESTIMATED MATERIALS LINE" " tab there are two columns called "NET QUANTITY" and "ESTIMATED QUANTITY". System allows us to change this NET QTY field and ESTIMATED QTY field is desabled. But when ever we do any change to NET QTY field system automatically change the ESTIMATED QTY field also with the same value.

My point is why the system automatically changes this "ESTIMATED QUANTITY" when we change the "NET QTY". I think system should keep remain the original value of "ESTIMATED QUANTITY" field (according to bom) even we change the qty of "NET QTY" field. then we can easily track the variation between what we actually issued and the estimated quantity.
Otherwise what is the importance of having two columns called "ESTIMATED QUANTITY" and "NET QTY"? can anyone please explain me why they mintaing such 2 columns?
Because in some cases we change the NET QTY and we need to track the variation between what we actually issued and the estimated qty.

Thanks

Hi,

Net Quantity- 10 kg

Estimated Qty = Net Qty + Scrap factor or Scrap Qty
10 + 1 = 11 kg

if scrap factor is zero then both fields have same qty
Hope u understand
