Nice !!!

So enlightening!
Your documentation is an eye opener sir! Good job.
what about manual flushing
I have the problem that the pick quantities are not always exact and may have more quantity that the assigned to the bom calculation. Thus my idea was to use the manual flushing principle, and then when using handheld devices, if the quantity on location is greater than the "picked" one, override on the handheld device this quantity. Do you tinks this is possible?
manual picking
Let's do the scenario
1.According to BOM I should pick , using handheld , 10. But You want to pick more, maybe 12. Okay, On the Worker screen in advanced whs there are two parameters: allow over-picking for sales, allow over-picking for transfer. But it does NOT have allow over-picking for production.! I am going to try it and see. Suppose it is possible … then what is next.?.
2.With flushing principle manual nothing happens after this. The flushing principle has NOTHING to do with the picking. it controls what happens after the picking.
3.You create a manual picking list journal and you can use 'picked' proposal parameter to get the picking list journal created for 12.
4.suppose you can NOT over pick for production... then you can still be okay. th flushing principle can remain 'avl on location". You get an automatic Picking list journal for 10, but you have set parameter to NOT POST. Then the picking list journal is waiting, you go to the line and change quantity from 10 to 12.
