I was wondering is there a best practice to de-kit a purchased item in Epicor? I have encountered this in other companies but there was never a good way to capture this.
Example: We purchase the item under part number “A”, but it comes with “B”, and “C”. Items We consume item A, B and C which are used in different BOMs.
I thought about having an operation called de-kit, but that would require producing multiple items from a job, and those components would have to be M. Any ideas? Thanks!
We have thought about it but we didn’t test it, so maybe something to play with. How would that work if the component in the kit is also a purchase part?
You’d need to have 4 P/N’s. A, B & C that you already have, but all are Mfg’d. New part D you would buy. The BOM for A would be (1) of D, and makes co-parts B & C.
You’d buy D, have a job to “make” A, and up end up with A, B, & C as the output of that job.
