If you set the flushing method to NOT manual to all components, we can see that this where the problem come from.
In fact, assume if you have all component flushed manually, you can post production outputs ahead before posting any consumption. With this, you will be able to avoid not enough inventory of components. You may need to rearrange some components to have their flushing method vary in Manual, Backward, or Forward. Backward and Forward flushing method is automatic. Use Backward/Forward for components which most certainly consumed, and use Manual for components which are optional or 'good-to-have' or 'may-omitted'. Or, you can combine your product design by using Production BOM for some basic or fundamental built intermediate-products (semi finished items). Then, use BOM (assembly b.o.m) for good-to-have component to produce Finished Goods.
