When you need to "(almost) pretend it never happened", you can undo the manufacturing; the manufactured product is moved out of your inventory and its raw products are moved back into your inventory.

In order to Undo Manufacturing:
the manufacturing date must be in an open period
it must involve only active products
it must have been manufactured in an active location
When you undo a manufactured product agrē automatically makes various updates, which may include GL postings, cost history table amendments for inventory items, and inventory balance adjustments. Any changes to estimated unit costs are also undone. The updates that occur depend on the type of manufactured product being undone.
If you need to shuffle costs after the undo, use the Cost Reallocation Tool.
Use the Undo Manufacturing button to undo manufactured products.
Caution
If you are undoing the manufacture
of a product with a Lot Number, the quantity of the manufactured
product will be updated with the Undo, but the status of the Lot#
will not change.
For example, if the only activity for a Lot# was the manufacturing,
and the manufacturing was subsequently undone, the Lot# would
still exist but it would have no activity.
