Does someone has a workaround for forecasting a sales kit

Hi, Rick. Any luck with a solution to plan the materials in a sales kit?

No workaround.
But Epicor support has passed this issue on to Development… still waiting for a response from Development.

This may work for you - note the forecast does not get consumed, but you could put in weekly forecasts to drop off the demand.

In the education environment I created two parts.
SaleKit1 - type SalesKit - with a BOM with some nuts and bolts

SaleKitPlanBOM - Type Planning BOM - with a BOM with only SalesKit1 as pull as assembly.

Put in a forecast for SaleKitPlanBOM

Note that the July and August forecast dropped off.

Ran MRP

Checked the materials on the SaleKit1
