Posted on by Geegus 210

In my suggestion, Per series means that if one raw material can be produce more than one pcs item. I have to set per series base on portion.

Am I understand  correct ?

Please confirm me again.

Thank you very much

    Your quantity (the amount to be consumed) references the per series. So if you have 1 in quantity and 1 in per series it means you need 1 per 1 parent made. If you have 1 in quantity and 10 in per series it means you need 0.1 per 1 parent made, or 1 per 10 parents made.

    Set the per series to 10 and load a production order for 1 and look at the consumption line (or do it through pricing)

    Hi Erik

    The simple answer is Integer.

    It is actually an EDT which extends the standard Qty EDT but in this EDT the number of decimals is set to 0.

    The is the quantity in the component Quantity field is needed to  produce the number of units of the parent BOM items as specified in the per series Number of units

    When the quantity is 1,and  the unit is litre, and the per series is 100, then one litre of the item is required to produce 100 finished BOM items.

    Depending on your set up the calculated quality for a given quantity of parent needed to be produced the quantity of the component needed may be further modified by rounding to pack size logic.
