Use this subtask to allocate the MO build quantities to multiple inventory abbreviations. Allocations are used to identify where the finished parts on the MO are to be distributed. At least one allocation line (Build-To Inv Abbrev) per MO is required. Allocations are determined by allocated quantity, and the sum of allocated quantities must equal the build quantity of the MO.
If you selected the Allow Multiple Inv Abbrev Build-To Allocations for MOs checkbox in the Production Control Settings screen, you can select the New Line button on the toolbar to add a new build-to inventory abbreviation. Inventory Abbreviations can be assigned across multiple inventory projects only if you selected the Allowed with Other Projects radio button for the Inventory Project in the MO Allocations Across Projects group box in the Inventory Projects screen. If you attempt to add a new line and the Allowed with Other Projects radio button is not selected and the Build-To Inv Abbrev contains a different inventory project than the previous line, the system will display an error message indicating that the project for this inventory abbreviation does not allow commingling with another project on an MO.

This column displays the build-to inventory abbreviation(s) to which the MO parts will be allocated upon completion. This column can be edited. You cannot change this inventory abbreviation once charges have been applied to the MO or units have been completed against it. If you selected the Allow Multiple Inv Abbrev Build-To Allocations for MOs checkbox in the Production Control Settings screen, you can use the New Line button on the toolbar to add a new build-to inventory abbreviation. All such allocation projects must meet the inter-project issue restrictions for the subassembly and raw material inventory projects (as set up in the Inventory Projects screen in Costpoint Inventory). If the MO Type is "Customer Repair," the inventory abbreviation entered must have an account type of "G" (GFM).
This column displays the inventory abbreviation name.
This column displays the quantity of parts to be allocated to this inventory abbreviation. The sum of the allocated quantities must match the MO build quantity.
This column displays the quantity of completed parts allocated to this inventory abbreviation.
This column displays the yield quantity allocated to this inventory abbreviation. If the Include Scrap/Yield % in Planning Process checkbox is selected in the Production Control Settings screen, this field is calculated as (Allocated Quantity - Completed Quantity)* Yield. If the part is an MBOM assembly, its yield percentage is entered in the Assembly Information subtask in the Maintain MBOM and/or Release MBOM screens in Costpoint Bills of Material. If the Include Scrap/Yield % in Planning Process checkbox is not selected, the Yield Quantity is the difference between Allocated Quantity and Completed Quantity.
