Processing a Request for a Kit
After the kit item is defined, the kit can be specified on a customer order, job order, project resource, or transfer order.
Follow these steps to process a request for a kit:
-
Use one of the following forms to process a single transaction
that performs the material issues for kit components, using just-in-time
transaction processing logic. This is done using the kit item's standard
bill of materials.
- Customer Order Kit Builder
- Job Material Kit Builder
- Transfer Order Kit Builder
- Project Resource Kit Builder
On any of these forms, follow these general steps:
- Select filter criteria (range of kit items to process, planner code, and/or a due date range) and click the Filter button.
- Each line item that matches the filter criteria is displayed
in the grid.
- For a customer order line to be listed, these conditions
must be met:
Line Item Status is Ordered
Quantity Ordered > Quantity Shipped
Ref Type = Job
Ref Number is blank
The default location is selected and, if the item is lot-tracked, a default lot is also displayed.
- For a transfer order line to be listed, the following conditions
must be met:
Quantity Ordered > Quantity Shipped
Line Status = Ordered
Ref Type = Job
Ref Number is blank
- For a job material or project resource to be listed, the
following conditions must be met:
Quantity Required > Quantity Issued
Ref Type = Job
Ref Number is blank.
- For a customer order line to be listed, these conditions
must be met:
- Select the records to process and specify a quantity and location. If the item is lot-tracked or serial-tracked, you can specify lot and serial numbers.
- Click Process to generate inventory
transactions for the kits. A job transaction record for a just-in-time
transaction is created for each selected line, and the standard
routing and bill of materials are used to post the kit components.
For Customer Order Kits, if the kit item is marked as Reservable on the Items form, the system also creates a reservation for the line item and the kit that was just created.
-
Click the Print Pick List button to
display the appropriate form (below) where you can generate a pick
list for the kit. This prints the standard routing/BOM for the required
quantity.
- Customer Order Kit Pick List
- Job Material Kit Pick List
- Transfer Order Kit Pick List
- Project Resource Kit Pick List
- Print customer paperwork for orders (Order Verification Report, Packing Slip, and/or Order Invoicing/Credit Memo). The paperwork lists the kit and, optionally, its components.
