Assembly types
- no = not an Assembly
- JIT = Just in time
- The item is never stocked
- It can be purchased - so the Kit can be purchased from a supplier however it will explode on receipt into the components. So a PO line for K1234 when receipted may result in picking 10 Product A and 10 Product B to put into stock
- It can be sold - the sales order is for K1234 but the pick list will be for 10 Product A and 10 Product B - ie the pick will pick the BOM items not the SKU
- Stock = Normally held in stock.
- Can also be assembled from components.
- Will not be JIT picked - ie must be made up in advance of any pick
- KIT = Normally not stocked however Finished kits can be stocked
- Kits can be either
- Fixed Bill of Materials (with alternate items for items not always in stock)
- Can build a number of assembled items directly from the Assembled product tab if enough components exist (Journals may be created which may affect the average cost of the kit). The Calc button will show expected cost of an assembly before it is built.
- Variable bill of materials (some items optional) - see Managing Configurable Products - Setups explained
- Fixed Bill of Materials (with alternate items for items not always in stock)
- Kits can be either
- Recipe = Manufactured Items with a batch size produced from the components
- The key difference with a KIT is that the recipe is not rigid with the required amounts but is more of an expected amount and can scale up and down easily
- Recipes may also allow material substitutions during manufacturing - ie instead of raw cashew nuts use roasted cashew nuts
- Pack = SKU's that may also be broken down into components for orders
- ie a carton of 10 items may be purchased, stocked and sold predominantly in the carton of 10 as 1 carton
- however if only 2 are sold the system will auto break a carton into 10 components and pick 2 from the resulting 10

Review Store Stock Targets (special play list)
Retail store networks will have target stock levels to maintain in the stores. Here you can
- Review stock levels across the network
- Review sell rates by article across the network
- Review and Set Min / Max stock levels to hold in each warehouse or store in the network
- Type directly into the grid for any SKU / store
- Type into the "Default" column - then copy this value across to all stores listed
- A value of -1 will clear all settings in each store
- Where a warehouse has more stock that set as the maximum > can send a pick list for it to be removed
- Where the warehouse with excess stock is a franchisee store > they will use the Faulty and Excess Stock return for claim process
Can filter which warehouses are shown in the list. In this way you can work on similar stores at once - for example all the smaller stores give them the same tag then show only warehouses with that tag.
- Tags are held on the warehouse
- You can use: and, or, not symbols in Store Tags filter:
- Tags can be 1 or more alpha (a-z and A-Z) or numeric (0-9) characters.
- Tags are not case sensitive, i.e. a = A.
- If a tag is more than 1 character, e.g. BS, then a filter of BS will include that store but SB will not.
- Use & in the Store Tags filter if the store must have both tags, not in any particular order, e.g. B&S will include BS, SB and ABCS.
- Use | in the Store Tags filter if the store can have either tag, e.g. C|D.
- Use - before a tag to exclude stores with a tag, e.g. -A or B&-S.
- Use ( and ) if you mix & and | in an expression, e.g. (A&B)|(C&D) or A&(B|C)&D.
- Any other character (including space) is invalid.
Here is an example of a filter for A and B stores
