Maintain Assemblies - Stock Control


Datafile Software

Maintain Assemblies - Stock Control

This parameter screen provides additional options that can configure how stock assembly details are maintained and built.

Show Stock Description and Cost Price for Each Component?

If set then the assembly maintenance screens display the stock description and cost as recorded on the stock record for that component.

Display running total of assembly cost during component input?

The cost value of the components can be accumulated and displayed in the assembly header, set this option to do this.

Omit Stock Level Warnings during Build

The stock assembly processes will provide options such as replacement of a component when you are building an assembly and a component has insufficient stock. This option omits these warning and automatically assumes that you are allowing stock to go ‘negative’.

Allow Overtype of Assembly Stock Code during Assemblies

In some circumstances the same assembly process could build several different stock items – where perhaps only the labelling or colour differs. This option allows, if you select the assembly code during build to amend the stock item being built.

Prompt for Extra Assembly Data Item in Assembly Header

This option asks for a data item from the Assembly file that will be prompted for within the assembly maintenance – this could be used to allow input of additional information or comments. Select if required.
