In our previous blog; we discussed about simple steps to setup Bills of Material in Sage 300 ERP. http://www.greytrix.com/blogs/sageaccpacerp/2013/07/29/bom-setup-for-manufacturing-company-in-sage-300-erp/
Ever wonder about setting up bills of material from Order Entry screen?
Most often customers requires to setup bills of material while they are taking an order from their customers. Say for e.g. your customer is selling customized kitchen cabinets. Every time they got an order for a new kitchen cabinet; it requires setting up a new BOM with the required components or making alterations to existing BOM. Similar needs arise for kitting items also.
The New stuff : Gain/Loss Accounting method in Sage 300 ERP
To cater these requirements we have designed a component for Sage 300 ERP which allows users to add/edit the BOM/Kitting Items from Order Entry screen itself. In this blog we shall discuss about these enhancements.
On Order Entry screen we have provided custom button “Update Kit/BOM”, which allows to add/edit BOM and Kitting items.
Now let’s see how the enhancement works with BOM items.
After selecting the Master Item and BOM No., Update Kit/BOM function will launch the new screen which will list the BOM and its components.
By default screen will load the components of selected BOM.
On this screen; users can either edit the component quantity, remove the components or they can even add a new component items. Upon saving; all these changes will be reflected in the current order and our program will also update the Master Item and BOM records.
In order to setup new BOM; enter a new BOM Number and then select the required components.
In given example; we are entering a new BOM Number 3 under Master Item A2(KINGS-5000)-B.
Upon saving , a new BOM will be generated for the selected Master Item and the same will be reflected in order detail.
Similarly users can add/edit Kitting Items.
Note: This customization is done using Sage 300 SDK, as a result easy to deploy and it works with Sage 300 ERP 2012 and Sage 300 ERP v6.0A
