Non-Stock Kits with manually lotted components

Hello @courtneyb,

Can you send a screenshot of the error message you are getting.

hi @AndrewBGL ! Please see below.

A huge paint point for us at Villa & House.

We used to be able to do this, in fact we have a bunch of kits setup this way.  Now we can’t create more so I would agree that this is pain point.  Not sure which update “fixed” this.

@jon95 which release version was this working in for you?

To be honest - not sure exactly when it stopped working.  We are currently on 2022 R2 build 22.211.0034.  We have had some kits setup this way since we started with Acumatica in 2018.  That is as close as i can narrow it unfortunately.  I should note - we do not use these particular kits as a “sales kit” since there was historically availability calculation issues with Non-stock kits (components would not show demand).  We have a customization to use the kits as a shortcut to add items to sales orders instead.  

@Dana Moffat Do you think this is something we can get back in the near future? Or is this something you would recommend a customization for? I know it hits a bunch of different screens so it would be a pretty tough customization. We are just at a stand still with non-stock kits especially with Big Commerce because of this.

@courtneyb let’s connect via Teams - i would like to hear more about this from you.  I’ll send you some proposed meetup date/times.  

@courtneyb thanks for meeting today.

If there are others in the Community interested in meeting with me, please indicate here on the thread.

@jon95 ?

@Dana Moffat, I would be interested in meeting with you about this. Thanks.

​@Dana Moffat, we have exactly the same issue. Is there a way to overcome this? Could we maybe get in touch?

​@AndreaJac88 The way we fixed this was to create a new lot class and switch all of our products needing lots over to the new class. Switching them is the most tedious part because you can’t change the lot class of an item if it is allocated anywhere. 

Here is the new set up of the lot class. It still allows you to enter your own lots just as you would if using user-enterable.

Hope this helps!
