Build Assembly (On-Order) - Stock Control

This option is processed identically to the option ‘Build Assembly (Physical)’. However instead of updating the quantity as physical stock the on-order quantity is updated instead – when ready to update physical you then enter a ‘purchase order delivered’ transaction through the stock transaction option. Note that if building sub-assemblies then the main item of the sub-assembly is updated for on-order quantity as well.

Stock File Updating

When the stock files are updating the following actions occur for each item on the assembly:

For Assembly Builds the on-order stock level is increased by the quantity built

For Component Issues the physical stock level is reduced by the quantity issued

The period and year-to-date demand figures for the component stock items are increased by the quantity issued.

The period and year-to-date sales values for the component stock items are increased by the sales value of the issue (sales value equal to cost)

The period and year-to-date cost values for the component stock items are increased by the cost value of the issue

The last transaction date is updated for both assembly and component stock items

An on-order (type 2) transaction is written for the assembly build items

An assembly transaction (type 9) with a negative quantity is written for the component stock items.

When batch/serial stock items are issued the following actions occur for each item on the assembly:

The physical stock of the component serial/batch is reduced by the quantity issued

An assembly transaction with a negative quantity is written for batches issued
