Show item tracking lines on production order components list

Posted on by Andreas Isaksen

Hi,

Before finishing a production order we have to allocate serial no or lot no to different items that we have used in that particular prod order. This is done in the prod. order components list.
All the items that require so, have a item tracking code on their item card.

My question is:
Is there any way to display the components list so the user can see which components that needs serial or lot no?

For example when we use the Physical Inventory Order, the report has this column where it says "Use Item Tracking", and there are check boxes which are checked if the item requires Item Tracking.

I have the same question (0)

A page extension would make sense if it’s just a visual aid. If you want filtering capability then a table/page extension.

Depending on your data you could explore some alternatives. For example, item substitution is an available field. If you aren’t otherwise using it then it could help. Majority of your component items for manufacturing will have “Sales Blocked” on them anyway - to stop confusion for sales personnel.

Are you using dimensions on items? If not maybe assign one for tracking and then using the dimension set ID as a filter

Thank you for your answer.

Yes, it is just for visual aid, I don't need filtering capability. When you talk about page extension, do you refer to the "Add Field to Page" that pops up on your right hand side when pressing Settings->Personalize -> Field? Or do you mean something else?

We are not using dimensions on items but we would like to not have alternatives and "tricks" because if we start with that we will have multiple functions to maintain.

We are a company that are in the beginner phase/mediocre of using Business Central so there are still functions that we don't know of. I have not discovered the "Sales Blocked" function that you mention, where can I find this? On the item card I can only find the "Blocked" function.

Well you came to the right place for help.

“Sales Blocked” is on the item card.

I don’t mean personalisation. I mean development. Here is how to achieve the desired result: https://youtu.be/fXDxAM0ZrvU

Thanks for the input! I will look into it

I dont know why but I can't find the "Sales Blocked" on the item card. Is this a set up which is achieved through development as well?

This is the only "Blocked" feature that is displayed on the item cards. Where is it on yours?

Those fields might not be visible on the item card: docs.microsoft.com/.../inventory-how-block-items

Use “personalise” to add fields are currently not in view. Access personalise in the settings area in the top right - cog ️ icon

Unfortunately this is the only thing that pops up when I go to personalize and press "field".

There is no alternative for "Sales Blocked" or "Purchase Blocked" which I can identify.

Hello,

The field Sales Blocked is under Prices & Sales tab and Purchase Blocked is under Replenishment tab. You may have to click on Show More.

Thanks.
