The Bulk Issue frame is when the user manually enters the quantity of material they want to issue to a production order. Instead of the system calculating consumption, the user selects the material, specifies the quantity to issue, and confirms the transaction. When the Bulk Issue is posted, the system immediately reduces the on-hand inventory by the entered amount and records a single consolidated issue transaction.
Because the user decides the exact quantity, the Bulk Issue frame is typically used when precise, real-time control of issued material is needed; for example, after measuring actual usage during cutting.
