Partial Parts Consumption
Part Consumption: There should be an option to consume a variable amount of parts. If a tech only consumes a portion of parts requested, they should be able to consume only the used portion. Sometimes parts are not shipped in one package and techs can only use a portion of the parts needed on the work order, but the part need remains opened with nothing consumed until all parts arrive and and are consumed.

Currently, if a partial qty. is consumed on a WO Task Part Need, the system correctly shows the partial qty. consumed in Part Usage but the system then cancels the remaining Part Need qty. not yet consumed. That would be fine if the remaining qty. is truly no longer needed but for instances where the remaining qty. is still needed, the BO qty. should still show as an active Part Need qty. When consuming partial qtys. of Part Needs, Technicians should have the option to cancel the remaining qty. from the Part Need of back order the remaining qty. leaving the Part Need open.
