15We have a number of SKUs; for the sake of argument, lets call one of them "chair".
Chair is made up of:
chair-legs; available from vendor A
chair-seat; available from vendor B
chair-back; available from vendor C
The best way to think of these is that they are flat packed and technically assembled at the customer's end.
The current process we have is that a sales order will be raised for each individual component and shipped out. We will then assemble it at the customers end.
There is also another way of doing it, which is creating a production order and consuming the chair legs, back and seat to create a 'chair'. This way a sales order can be raised for 'chair' and allocated against, rather than against each component.
What I want to do is be able to make the process easier -- is there some way we can create a workflow and based on our requirement of 'chair', AX raises a purchase order for chair-leg from the appropriate vendor, chair-seat from the appropriate vendor, etc. and when these are receipted, they are consumed or converted into a 'chair'? At the moment this is a lot of manually administrative overhead for a product category we have as each component is sourced from different supplies and we technically don't do any assembly or production on our end.
