Posting this in the correct place - sorry about that (I'm new to the forum)

I have tried this and it still doesn't work for me. Even when I assign operations for consumption to specific materials on the BOM it doesn't relieve the inventory when the respective operation is completed. When the MO is confirmed, inventory correctly shows quantity on hand and the forecasted quantity (based on the BOM materials). The only way I have been able to update inventory quantity on hand is to Mark as Done MO.

Even when I complete an operation and then MANUALLY consume the materials it doesn't update the inventory quantity on hand. When I completed the operation where this material was set to consume, I clicked on the "more options" link to the right and it opened up the Detailed Operations window. In this window I even manually typed in the Done quantity. After doing this the MO even shows that material is consumed. However, it still doesn't update the inventory quantity on hand but still shows the forecasted decreased quantity.

What is the trigger point for updating the quantity on hand in the Inventory module?

I'm sure this must be some sort of settings issue on my end or something isn't set up correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

further to this on the work order screen it usually has x of y to enter how many have been made but this appears on all WO's in an MO. Surely this only appear on the last operation when the finished good is finally made?
