Wasted moves after Production Order

[Grzegorz Grzelak (OpenGLOBE.pl)]

Create Database with manufacturing profile.
Create products A and B as row materials Supply method Buy and Make to Stock
Product C as BoM (C = 1 x A + 1 x B) - Supply method Produce and Make to Stock.
Rest settings as default.

Create Sale Order and run Scheduler with Automatic OP few times. Perform all work with created Purchase order. Run scheduler few times. Start and Finish created Production Order. Sale the product.

After that I see in Stock moves list a 2 moves (Raw materials) from Stock to Stock in Status Done. I think they are needless. And 3 moves with status Available. Also needless for future.

When in the same configuration you create the same Production order manually and perform all actions as above you will see again 2 Stock to Stock moves with status Done. And 2 Stock to Production moves of raw materials, and Production to Stock move of product. These 3 moves are in status Draft. Again needless for future.

Hello,

Talking about '2 Stock to Stock moves with status Done' :
 These moves are used for internal quality check or packing purpose and it is taken from warehouse input location. currently input and output are by default stock so if you want to change input location you can change it from warehouse and in that time these 2 internal move will created for changed input location.

so I think now you get my point what I want to tell you that this 2 moves are not wastage it is used for internal quality check or packing purpose.

It would be better if you keep Location input and Location stock as different locations, you will be able to see the usage.
Hoping to hear more from you.

Thanks.

Hello Jay,

I understand the purpose of warehouse with 3 locations. I've made test described in this bug report for Warehouse with 3 different locations (Input, Stock and Output). The result was even worse than before. Strange Stock to Stock move are still created. The worst is that by default (not configurable) raw materials in Production order are required from Stock location. But Purchase order provide them to Input location (correct according to general concept). Running MRP creates now another strange moves Input to Input. Probably it should be set chained move from Input to Stock but I think the problem of wasted moves stays or is even bigger.
