Stocked manufactured items

Frank, Butch,

Your answers work fine if the demand is for a job, we want to be able to
keep a minimum amount on hand for customer spare parts orders. Vantage will
not make a manufacturing suggestion to stock (without the MRP module), it
needs to be to either a sales order (which would be too late, we want it on
the shelf when the customer calls) or to a job. It looks like the Time
Phased report is the simplest way to go. We do both pull as assembly and
pull as material currently for manufacturing demands.

Subject: RE: [Vantage] stocked manufactured items


if you want to be able to treat a manufactured part as a stock or planned
item the flag should set to pull as material not pull as assembly. If you
have set to pull as material the part will aggregate demand and then you can
make job(s) to satisfy it. If you have the flag set to pull as assembly the
manufactured child part will be part of the parents job, but you will not
have visibility of how many where made, used or even in "stock" because it
is treating it as a non-stock part. We have all of our parts set to stock.
The buyers go through the purchased time phase, and we are running mrp with
planning bills to satisfy all manufactured demand.

stock = pull as material or plan

non-stock = pull as assembly ( it doesn't exist at this level, roll up to
next level)

This was a little tricky for me it took many hours to break through my thick
Dutch head but now it has stuck.

GOOD LUCK

We're looking into this same issue for our implementation (ver 6.1). We
think the solution involves setting the Pull As Assy and View As Assy
flags to true. We're currently setting up a database to test it but you
may want to read the help file regarding the flags.

Good morning everyone,

We have a number of manufactured items that we want to keep on hand for
spare parts for our customers. We've set up minimum on hand qty's, but
unfortunately Vantage will only make manufacturing suggestions for
manufactured items on a sales order or job. The two options we've come
up
with are to have a visual system in the warehouse (kanban, or similar);
or
creating a Crystal report to check for items below min and run it
weekly.
Is there anyone else out there that stocks manufactured items, and if so
how
do you handle it? Is this problem fixed in Sonoma?

Thanks,

Liz

Hi Liz,

Just a thought...

Create a special part class for these specific parts. Then, run the Time Phase Report for manufactured parts for this specific part class. Instead of using Manufacturing Suggestions you would use Time Phase to manage these parts (actually what we do for all our manufactured parts since we primarily build to stock).
