I noticed in the work order scheduling window that there is a field that says “Short” with red text if there are not enough components in inventory to complete the part.
Is there currently a way to see this from the production order list? If not, a column you could turn on would be nice to be able to see the material shortage without having to open up the work order.
@abeausoleil The production orders list won’t show it. There’s a ton of data already being shown there, and adding more would create performance issues.
However, you should be able to find that information on the order material report under production > orders > order material report.
Take a look at that, and let us know if you have any other questions about it!
@abeausoleil I have to apologize, turns out there already are short per allocation and short per avail columns available on the production orders list. You may need to ± Columns to show them, but that information is available on the PO list.
I turned on all the columns available in the production order list and I see a “shortage comment” field, but I’m not seeing “Short Per Allocation” or “Short Per Available”. I do see it within the Warehouse > Relase to Pick screen though, which is helpful!
Gosh, I thought I was going crazy, because I definitely saw it there this morning!
Turns out, there’s a checkbox “Show Prod Mgmt?” you have to select in the search fields in order for it to show:
