Items in a BOM or Kit

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

We are trying to figure out how to set up our items that are kits in our item master.  I am wondering if anyone recommends using a BOM vs. using the retail kit functionality that I have read about?  Second question - is there any way to flag an item only for use in a BOM or a Kit?  And not to be sold on it's own?

Thanks!

Rosey

    It depends on how the kit will be processed in the warehouse. If the kit item is assembled and kept in inventory I would recommend using the retail kit as it is more manageable. the kit assembly order actually uses a BOM journal to assemble the kit.

    Dear Rosey,

    Just a suggestion. 

    Can not you use phantom BOM?

    Regards

    Yes, I know that I can stop the individual item for sales - but if I stop the individual item for sales - will it not let me sell the top BOM item? - lets say I want to explode the sales order?

    I don't know Retail Kits, so I won't answer the first part. But it is possible to put any item on Stop for Sales, using the 'Site specific order settings' or 'Default order settings' forms:
