I'm working with a client in Business Central who finds BOMs, routing, and the full manufacturing module too complex for their subcontracting needs.
The situation: they send raw materials out for subcontracting (e.g., coating) and receive them back in batches. They want a simple way to track added costs without using the full manufacturing features (BOMs, work centers, etc.).
Our workaround uses item journals to convert raw to finished goods and adjust costs via custom fields on purchase orders, but we're looking for an even simpler, effective solution.
Anyone have experience with this or know of third-party solutions that could help?
Thanks in advance!
