Select this to use the WIP Material Allocations - Maintenance program to maintain the currently highlighted allocation.

You cannot update a material allocation that has already been issued to the job.

If you change the warehouse of an allocation to a job for a notional part and the costing method is set to Detail (BOM Co-Product Maintenance), then you must re-apportion the co-products for the new detailed costing for the new warehouse (see WIP Co-Product Maintenance). If you change other details of an allocation to a job for a notional part and the costing method is set to Detail (BOM Co-Product Maintenance) then you are prompted to maintain the cost allocations for the co-products of the notional part

Select this to delete the currently highlighted allocation.

When you delete an allocation for a confirmed job, any reserved quantity is released (i.e. set to zero).

Job amendment journals are created when deleting material allocations if the Capture job amendment journals option is enabled (Work in Progress Setup).
