Let me start off with some background about how our inventory works and then work into the question. When we create a router we place the parts required for the job below the operation. All parts are on auto issue. When the employee enters his time and qty using barcode labor entry, the parts will pull from inventory to the router. This leads to my question. If the employee enters the wrong qty (example more than what the router called for) then it will pull more and place us in the negitive at times. Most of these are not caught until the router returns to comand central to be audited. This creates more work for command central. We sometimes have multiple routers on the floor with the same part number, and time and qty is placed against the wrong router causing an over issue. Is there any way to stop this. Have any of you faced this and overcomed it? I was thinking of putting a single card at the end to pull all the parts when the router is audited, but sometimes the router will be on the floor for a few days to a month. So this will leave us with inacurate qtys. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
