Question

How can we configure Acumatica to dynamically assemble Kit items on the fly based on available inventory, and allow substitution with alternate items if some components are not in stock?

Scenario:
Client sells a "Travel Kit" with the following components:

Kit Code Kit Name Components Alternate Items
KIT-001 Travel Kit Toothbrush, Towel, Bottle Towel ↔ Microfiber Towel

 

  • If Towel is out of stock, Microfiber Towel is used instead.

  • If Toothbrush is out of stock, the Kit is not shown as available.

💡 Output Expected:

  • User adds KIT-001 to a Sales Order.

  • System checks current inventory.

  • If all items are available → Kit is assembled on the fly.

  • If Towel is missing but Microfiber Towel is in stock → user gets substitution option.

  • If Toothbrush is missing and no alternative → Kit cannot be assembled.
