Production Examples and Work Flow

The examples on this and the following pages will demonstrate using a Production to assemble an Item to be held in stock. To illustrate the process, we will describe building a hifi rack from various components.

The examples assume Production Components Stock, Production Work Cost and Discarded Production Cost Accounts have been specified in the Account Usage Stock setting in the Stock module.

Start by recording the hifi rack in the Item register. This should be marked as a Stocked Item:

After saving the Item record, choose 'Recipe' from the Create menu (Windows/macOS) or + menu (iOS/Android). A new Recipe will be opened. A Recipe is a list of the components (with quantities) that are needed to produce or build the assembled Item. In the new Recipe, the Item from which you created the Recipe will be listed as the assembled Item (also known as the "Output Item") . To specify that an Item is the Output Item in a Recipe, enter the quantity that will be built in the Out field and leave the In field empty (the default Out quantity will be 1). Components are also known as "Input Items": list these in the Recipe, and use the In field to specify the quantity of each component that will be required to build the assembled Item. If a cost such as labour will be incurred when building the Output Item, enter this in the W-cost (Work Cost) field in one of the Input rows, as shown in the illustration below:

When you save the Recipe, the Recipe Code will be copied to the Recipe field on the 'Recipe' card of the assembled Item:

This field connects the assembled Item to its Recipe. Save the Item to confirm.
