Use this subtask to allocate the MO build quantities to multiple inventory abbreviations. You use allocations 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 function on the toolbar to add a new build-to inventory abbreviation. You can assign Inventory Abbreviations 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.

The inventory abbreviation in the Default Build-To field from the main screen will display on the first allocation line. 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, select 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). The default build-to inventory abbreviation will not automatically load if you selected "Customer Repair" in the Type field on the main screen; you must manually enter an inventory abbreviation (having a "G" (GFM) Acct Type).
This field displays the inventory abbreviation name.
Enter the quantity of parts to be allocated to this inventory abbreviation. The sum of the allocated quantities must match the Build Qty field on the main screen.
This field displays the quantity of completed parts allocated to this inventory abbreviation.
This field 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 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.
