Hi guys! I have a customer who want to be able to : - Purchase item1 , item2 , item 3 - sell item 123 composed by item 1, item 2 and item 3. This is what I have done so far: 1. Create a Bom for item 123 using item 1, item 2 and item 3. 2. Create a Purch, order with item 123 on the line. I then explose my bom which gave me item 1, item 2 and item 3 on 3 lines in my PO. 3. I receive the order which updates my inventory for all my components. Facts 1. I want to be able to ship item 123 to the customer which will depleted my inventory for all components. 2. When selling item 123, inventory should be depleted automatically on each item. 3. When invoicing, the invoice should list all components.I want to be able to invoice components i.e item 1, item 2 and item3. Thanks
Hey Tatiana, I think this can be done using the assembly list on the item card. There you can define the components of your item. So you define item1,item2 and item3. Then create Item123 and on the item card under the item button, you find assembly list. Add the items to the bill of material. Wherever you use item123 (e.i. sales order, purchase order), you have a function ‘explode bom’. This will explode item123 to item1, item2 and item3. Francis
Hi Francis, I did that but our customer want tobe able to sell Item ABC by itself and automatically item1 , item 2 and item 3 should be remove from inventory. Thanks
Hi Tatiana It is not possible, in the standard software, to sell item 123 and not explode the BOM and then downdate the components (in a single step). In reality the assembly (if you do it) would need to be mirrored by a BOM journal - the physical assembly of the product. If no assembly takes place anywhere - for instance you buy 123, pay for 123 and stock 123 you could simply sell 123 - and have extended texts listing the components, or add them in as standard text codes. or of course you could modify the system. What I would say is these are possibilities, but not recommendations. You seem to need to balance the need for some customers to see components, with others that do not, so you can at times just process the components and others the assembled item.
Hello AdamRoue! Do you know if this situation is feasible now in Dynamics AX 2009? When invoicing a sales order for a BOM item (it’s a pizza!) I want the components to be automatically deducted from inventory by the standard qtys.
Thanks alot!!
This was a NAV question.
In AX you would need to look at the report as finished flag on the item card and see if this can do it, not something I have looked at myself.
