Operation backflushing
The process of backflushing one or more operations on a routing based the designation of paypoints, or reporting operations. In a routing with three operations and only the last coded as a paypoint, no production is manually reported at the first two operations; if 100 units are reported at the third the system will assume 100 units were also produced at the first two operations and material and earned hour transactions are generated using the standard. Similar to material backflushing in that fewer manual transactions are required, with the tradeoff of assuming operations were performed at standard.
