Job to Job Issue

This is what the user sent me…they had a job to job and it didn’t transact correctly and is missing cost to target job. They only use Job to Job occasionally and not sure it is being used correctly.

Thanks

Job 202613 transacted “from” the job but was not received to target job 031091-23-1. The job output (demand) shows received qty of 2.0 on 202613 (but status is open) and looking at the completion screen all 5 ea job-to-job outputs are complete. However on target job 031091-23-1 material 10 on does NOT show received. When I transacted job 202613 all 3 demand transactions (031091-23-1, 031098-20-1, and 216102) seemed to work fine and the other two jobs are OK.

PS – After I noticed this I un-completed job 202613. However it the system both completed & closed the job automatically.

Target Job

I had the same issue. Unfortunately, I could not find any way to do it with Epicor standard programs even 5 years later.

The easiest way is to take materials from material transfer on the job tracker as a list and do it through DMT:

  1. Return all materials from the original job to stock (with lot numbers and qty etc)
  2. Issue all materials with the same list to the new job
  3. COmplete/close/delete the original job
  4. Proceed with the new job as intended

I have close to 800 lines like that and asking an assistant to do it would make her quit :slight_smile:

DMT FTW!
