ReportHello,
I have been searching for an answer to our problem for over a year and still have not come up with an acceptable solution so I have decided to ask for help. Currently we are on GP2015, we use multiple bins, and lot track these items. We are a manufacturer and some of the items we produce have to be converted to other items.
To simplify, lets say that we produce and sell a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood (parent item). I also cut this sheet down into smaller sizes and sell them that way (children). The children are sizes 1 x 4, 2 x 4, and 5 x 4. So item A.(4 x 8), item B (1 x 4), item C (2 x 4), and item D (5 X 4) are all unique item numbers and are lot tracked. Lastly, I need to be able to issue the parent to the process so my people would know which lot numbers to cut down.
I need a process that will allow me to take item A and generate 3 different items from it. Inventory Assembly won't work because it does not allow bins.
If there was something like a Manufacturing Order that would allow me to receive in different items instead of the item the Manufacturing order was created for, that would be the perfect answer. Does anyone know of an add-on or modifier that would do what I need.
Any assistance or comments would be very welcome.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Larry
