Inventory Adjustment with Assembly BOM - Dynamics 365 Business Central

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 40

I have a scenario in which there are 2 items in my inventory - Item A and Item B. Each of them has an assembly BOM associated with it. Item A has an assembly BOM of item C and item D. Likewise, item B has an assembly BOM of item E and item F. I had set the quantity of item C , D, E and F to be 20 units each, which eventually makes the quantity of item A and B to be 20 units. Then I had created a sales invoice across job planning lines with 5 units of item A and 5 units of item B. After posting the sales invoice, the quantity of item C, D, E and F should have become 15 units each in the inventory, but this doesn't happen. Is there any solution for resolving this issue?

    Hey,

    I just have a different prospective in that question, as we have already linked assembly BOM with the associated item so it won't change directly to the item even after posting the Sales Invoice, as there is a part that is known as Production Cycle that tells us that it won't affect it. Whenever there is the production required and the BOM is being manufactured so, then only if there is any deficiency then it shall be asking for the low inventory otherwise it wont change directly on the Item List.

    I hope that helps.

    I wish I had more time to test this, but I am confident this is a limitation of the system. The assembly moduel is simple by nature.

    The setup as I would see it, would be that;

    Item A and Item B, are "Assembled to Stock".

    Item A and Item B are set as planning lines on a job with the usage link code ticked. Type = Billable/Budget

    An Assembly order is created and posted for the construction of item A and B.

    Item A and B, are posted as Job Journals. (this will consume the Items against the Job).

    The Sales Invoice for the Job is then created.

    Hope this helps. (But it sounds like when the Sales Invoice is created in your scenario for Item A and B, there is no associated Assmebly order created in the back ground, where the Sales Invocie is created from a Job).
