Hi,
We have a scenario where we are implementing a project module for one of our client. We have the below-mentioned scenario; please look and see if we can do something in D365 BC to meet clients expectations.
Client frequently purchase standard lengths of steel directly applied to a project - that is the purchase order is not written to inventory and the material never enters into inventory.
The cost of that steel is accounted as material costs to the project. The leftover pieces are then entered into inventory and costed per the current scrap rate for steel.
What would this process look like of updating the master inventory to add leftover pieces and cost them?
And whenever they get a New Project a Material with different size and shape can be quoted to Vendor to procure the material.
As per the client it is NOT acceptable to have to load every single possible item that could appear in a BOM into the inventory first.
Inventory is primarily for leftover steel scrap and rarely used to fill a BOM. The majority of parts and raw materials used to fill a BOM are purchased when that BOM is released for production.
