The Create Production Orders screen is sometimes including sales order lines that already have a linked production order.  This seems to occur when the first production order is on an In Process status and has been partially completed.  The new production order is for the remaining quantity.This is a big concern in a Make to Order scenario where Create Production Orders is automated.  It can lead to over production of costly custom ordered product.  We have opened a support case and this has been documented as a bug.  In order to prioritize this for development, it would be helpful to identify if others are having this same issue.There is a similar known issue which was documented here and is considered resolved.  We are seeing this issue in 2025 R1.

Based on testing in 25R2, using Generate Orders for Subassembly pegs the Constraint Date to the Parent Order Start Date (not the individual Operation Start Dates) for the Subassembly orders that are generated.The Due Date is smart enough to look at the Operation Start Date for when the Painted Assembly is actually needed, but Due Date has no impact in the Generate Orders for Subassembly action.We’d like the Constraint Dates for the child orders to be pegged to the OPERATION start date, not the ORDER start date.  Is there a configuration we’re missing?  We do not use APS.Other areas of the system seem to look at OPERATION start date to determine Constraint Dates/Promise Dates/Demand Dates.  I know on the Order Type you can force the MRP system to “Use Order Start Date for MRP”, which pegs all Constraint dates to the ORDER sta

Hello Community, I am trying to create a BOM with a phantom subassembly child on one of my operations. I have costs set on the materials of the phantom BOM. The problem is the cost does not roll into an estimate when copying the parent BOM onto the “Estimates” form. It loads the operation with the phantom item but with 0 cost. I do have the cost set to 0 on the parent BOM I am loading on the estimate, but the materials of the phantom BOM are manually set and should calculate up to 6000. Is there a way of getting the phantom material cost to “Explode” for the estimate before the creation of the production order? Phantom BOM:  Parent BOM: Estimation Operation:

What is the trick to get a default value on this screen for the Warehouse? It is a customized screen vs a GI, but am not entirely sure. Does it need to be coded in, or can it be added in a simpler manner? Thanks   

We’re trying to use planning BOMs, but don’t understand how Acumatica intends for us to handle them. Does anyone know of a good resource that explains the intended functionality? What we are envisioning is:Engineering creates a BOM that is somehow designated as “Planning” This BOM would not be able to be used to create a production order This BOM would work for MRP planning At some point, engineering converts the planning BOM to a “real” BOM Then manufacturing can create a production order and proceed as normal. Is the above at all similar to the process Acumatica designed?

We are about a year into using ACM and are still refining our reporting specifically around product availability.We take at once and future orders(a year or more sometimes) and our planning department is trying to get a shortage report based on a inputted time fence. We allocate inventory to orders 60 days out. We are trying to write a report to see where were are short of inventory in a 90 day window and a 120 day window. Short is defined as a)total on hand inventory, less hard orders b)total on hand inventory less hard order and forecasts. I was going to create a GI based on item time fence to net out the appropriate elements from PX.Objects.AM.AMRPPlan. This seems cumbersome, how are other doing this?  

We use serial tracked products that sometimes get consumed into other internal orders but sometimes get sold as is to the customer. We are having a hard time finding a way to get a list of serial tracked items that have neither been consumed into other orders nor sold to the customer. Any guidance of how to best pull together this information into a GI that employees can check against? I’m thinking probably some combination of ARTran and AMMTran info

I’m getting the below error when trying to Close a Production Order: Error: Updating 'Production Item Split' record raised at least one error. Please review the errors.Specify the quantity greater than 0.    Which screen/section should I review to find the split line with 0 quantity? What is the recommended fix for old production orders where the split record has 0 qty (update split, clear allocation, add a completion, etc.)?

We have a few blends of product that need to sit in the tank overnight to finish processing.  Our shift is M-TH 6:00am - 4:30pm.  The tank (machine) shows the same schedule, but we have machine time on the BOM as 16 hours.  The APS module is scheduling it over 2 - 3 days depending on the start time.  Our employees do not need to be present for the processing to take place once ingredients are placed in the tank.  If I change the machine shift to 24/7, it still will not calculate appropriately.  If I change the work center to have the 24/7 shift, it schedules around the clock.  I have tried to use queue time and finish time as well, but they are not yielding appropriate results either.  Essentially, I need 1-2 hours of shift time and the remaining is processing time overnight, then the tank can be emptied the following morning, cleaned and reused.  Is it possible to replicate this scenario on a BOM & in the APS module?

Our client is using Filters on the Inventory Planning Display in 24R2.  While testing for 25R2, I noticed the option to setup filters is gone.  This is a critical piece for our client.  Is there a work around that I am missing?  The client has many users of this screen that need standard filters to review the results.Has anyone else noticed or experienced this issue?

Hi Community,I have two configuration- related questions regarding Production Order behavior1.Default Status when creating a New Production Order: when creating a new Production Order, it automatically goes to Planned Status. Is there a way to make it default to Hold status first?2. In the Production Order Maintenance – Reference tab- when using an Inventory ID that already has a BOM assigned, should the system automatically pull the BOM ID and Revision? Is there any way both BOM ID and BOM Revision can be left blank by default? I’m trying to understand if this is standard system behavior or controlled by configuration.

We were eagerly awaiting 2025R1 to be able to cancel/correct purchase receipts without having to go through AP to get the process completed.  We were hoping for a simple reversal feature that could make things easier when a mistake was made.I’m just now learning that if we want to use the purchase receipt cancel/correct functionality, the Manufacturing or Service Management functionality cannot be enabled in the Enable/Disable Features. Does anyone know the reason why this feature is not available if you use the Manufacturing or Service Management functions?

Hello All,We are implementing Acumatica and are debating whether to use AWS or SharePoint to store document.  In our case, we would like to give access to a Contract Manufacturer only to specific subset of design documents.  Has anyone implemented solution capable of controlled access, upload nottifications, and revision control?

Hi All,Acumatica's Production Cycle for a manufactured product consists of 2 major steps: 1) produce volume first and then 2) subsequently, pack the volume into the required SKU.In such a scenario, is there a way to ensure that there is full availability of all materials required for producing a specific volume of a product, prior to confirming a Production Order? If yes, how and where can this be implemented/checked? In other words, a Production Order should not be allowed to proceed further (any subsequent steps) if there is either no or not enough material as required to produce a specific volume of the manufactured product.The same applies to the 2nd part above i.e. to again ensure that all packaging material required is available in full quantity during a request for Packaging Materials. Since this is a separate TR request (Inter Warehouse Transfer), how to ensure that this TR request is tied to the Production Order from step 1 above? The reason being, in o

Our team is currently in the middle of an implementation of Acumatica 2025R1. We have the manufacturing module.  With our existing process, we would make a production order for 100 parts with an outside process operation. We might only have a portion of the parts ready for outside processing, and would make a PO for those parts and send them for outside processing. Later, we may send another portion from the same production order on another purchase order, etc., until all parts have been sent for outside processing. The parts from the earlier PO might return before the other parts, and we would start working on the next operation for those quantities.  Is there a way to achieve this process in Acumatica? We want to be able to track the costs from the purchase orders on the production order and track the quantities sent to the vendor, including how many have been returned and how many are waiting to go.

Hello Experts, I am unbale to figure out how to view the total number of production order with ageing category. I Tried creating GI but still facing problem how to group .Please let me know where am i missing .So my output result should look like:- 

I have a GI that shows the Qty On Hand for each item by Warehouse. I want to get the total quantity on open Production orders at that warehouse for that item.  What tables/DACs do I need to join to my GI to pull in those numbers? 

We just recently updated to version 2024R2 and since then have found our MRP generation is not consuming the forecasted demand.  For instance our forecast for January 2025 has already been consumed by SO that exceed our forecast.  However, MRP is planning to the original forecasted demand.

Hello experts, I was looking to create a Generic Inquiry for Aging category of production order , I found this Generic inquiry for reference can anyone suggest me is it fine for the reference but still i am confused is it possible can we  show the aging category in this GI Report ?
