A backflush operation needs to be reversed. Processing a job adjustment for the backflush operation presents an error “This is a Backflush Operation. Entry Not Allowed.”

Use the following steps to back out backflush operations.

If the Operation Labor Entry type is Backflush:

1. Un-engineer and un-release the job

2. Change the Labor Entry type to time and quantity

3. Make any adjustments necessary in Time and Expense Entry.

If the issue is limited to materials:

Process a Return Material to reverse the backflush transaction (Inventory Management > General Operations > Return Material)

If the COS and WIP Capture has been run, process a Job Adjustment.

1. Reopen the job

2. Process a Job Adjustment (Production Management > Job Management > General Operations > Job Adjustment)

3. Enter an adjustment to labor/quantity for that employee.

Otherwise, enter a journal entry or some type of financial adjustment.
