The Material Usage Reason Codes category defines the valid material usage reasons and provides descriptions for each.  All are user defined.  These codes are used for recording unplanned usage in the Just-in-Time module.  The category is required if JIT is installed.

REASON CODE

Required.  Code used to specify why the unplanned usage occurred.  No validation is performed.

MATERIAL USAGE REASON DESCRIPTION

Required.  Text describing the material usage reason code.

MATERIAL USAGE REASON CODE TYPE

Required.  The type of code for this material usage reason.  Valid values are:

R- Regular

W- WIP Adjustment

If the reason type is "R," MAC-PAC makes a negative adjustment to the stock location specified on the Unplanned Usage Detail screen (JT170S02).  Typically, a reason code with a type "R" is used to issue more material than was previously backflushed, deduct issued, or lot issued.

If the reason type is "W," MAC-PAC reduces the WIP JIT balance for the component and makes a positive inventory adjustment to the location specified on the Unplanned Usage Detail screen.  A reason code of "W" is used when too much material was previously issued through deduct issues or lot issues.  It must be removed from WIP and returned to inventory.
