Hi Acumatica Community,May I ask if there is a setup of this field to make it automatic enabled upon creation of Production Order Maintenance?  Thank you!

In Acumatica Productionorder detail page we have add 2 custom column in UI. But we take 1 column in AMProdOper Extension we take 1 column which is Date Time. But not hide when Enable/disable my moduleIn DAC  In aspx  

I am working with a prospect and the existing system uses a kiosk to scan production order, work center, and start, then the do the same to scan stop.The prospect feels the time needed is excessive and want to understand how fast Acumatica can scan with a tethered scanner and on the app.

Hi Acumatica Community, I just want to ask if there is a setup for Data Collection, specific in Scan Move Screen. Here’s is scenario upon testing.Production Order - Qty to be Produced (20 Qty) and Tracked by Lot each I have a backflush for Materials and Labor Once the Production Order Maintenance is released I’ll go to Scan MoveUpon 1st scanning, it requires the followingProduction Nbr. Warehouse Location LotUpon 2nd up to 20th scanning, it requires the following      1. Production Nbr.      2.  Lot as you’ve noticed, it requires multiple scans for Production Nbr. Here’s my requirements.1. Production Order Nbr.2. Warehouse3. Location4. Qty (20 KG)5. Scan Lot (20 Lot Nbr.)   Hoping this process can cater in Scan Move functionality Thank you! 

A parent BOM has been configured with input material which has a separate BOM both BOMs are active but when I create orders for subassembly, the orders are not generating. Currently using Acumatica build version 24.104.0008.

We are new to Acumatica and would like to know how to change a Non-Stock Item into a Stock item.  Have attempted to delete the item and re-enter but cannot delete due to the item stating it is in multiple tables.  Have changed the posting class and still cannot change the item to a stock item.  Have attempted to fix the issue via Bills of Materials to to avail.  Thanks in advance for any information you can provide to help correct the issue.

We are new to Acumatica and still in the learning stages and business processes.  We have used sales forecast in the past along with a production forecast.  How can we still use both and which one is best for our production dept to use?  We want the sales orders to pull from the forecast but not both.Looking for knowledge and how we can make this work.

Hi All,We have this customer who is requesting to adapt barcode scanning for its warehouse team. What are the configurations and enable/disable features that need to be enabled? The customer is in the manufacturing field and currently using core modules for manufacturing, production, sales, and purchases.With the existing features and modules, is it possible to adapt barcode scanning, or does my customer have to purchase additional modules? Please let me know your valuable ideas.Thank you!

Hello everyone,I have a customer asking whether Matrix items can support the bill of materials (BOM) functionality. Where can I get some information about that ? Thanks

We often allocate input materials to a Production Order ahead of time — but the materials are in a different location than the production site.Once allocated, Acumatica won’t let us transfer the materials to the correct location because the inventory is locked.Our current workaround is to: Unallocate from the Production Order Transfer the inventory Reallocate it again This feels messy and inefficient.Our VAR suggested we just consume from the original location and physically move the material — but we’re not comfortable doing that due to compliance concerns.Has anyone run into this?Is there a way to transfer allocated inventory while keeping the link to the Production Order?Appreciate any ideas!

(Obviously) this is a test order from our sandbox tenant.  We’re trying to come to grips with the process here, but we are stuck.  This order at “Released” status, but the ellipsis menu is pretty much all greyed out, and we can’t add a labor transaction.  Can you help us solve the mystery?  

Before I recreate the wheel, does anyone have anything like this?We have a lot of variables in our product lines.  When customers request a new Length/Width/Material/etc we have to create a new Stock Item, Build a BOM, etc.Right now, we have ~5 spreadsheets with our product lines that have to be maintained to provide a quote for the customer.  This is also sent to the Product Manager to build the Item and BOM.I want to build a New Item page that would have variables depending on Product Type, in which certain dropdowns would be available or options in those dropdowns would be selectable.  Based on those parameters selected, it could build the Inventory Item, BOM, and provide a more accurate Quote. 

We are planning to introduce a custom frame order for our Online store on Shopify. The customers will pick the pre-configured sizes for their custom orders. Right now, our staff will create a custom Sales Order in Acumatica then create a Production Order. Wondering if it's possible for the custom orders to be auto create as Production Orders once they have synced to Acumatica? 

During one of our Move transactions we received the following error.The label printed along with the attributes being passed through to the label and the associated Move transaction did release. This is the first time this has happened since our upgrade and our transaction volume is very high. Is this an error to be concerned about? If so what is needed to resolve this? 

Hi, I need help.I have create Inventory ID and Linked with formula but when I want make production order I fill the code but cant pop-up    Thank you

When there are multiple estimates on a quote and only one or two of the items estimated are ordered, you have to remove the estimates for the items not being ordered from the quote before raising the sales order.  This means losing the connection to the quote which can create problems if the customer subsequently wants to order those items.  It would be better if you could simply select the won estimate at the point of raising the sales order so that the quote remains as it was when sent to the customer. Have we understood this correctly or do others have this same problem? if so how do you handle this.

A client has the following requirements:All work centers have finite capacity except the Drying process the drying process can continue all day without any restrictions to how much product can be dried in a dayI have tested Finish Time, Move Time and Queue time - but these times only consume from the available capacity of the work center. I have read the Wik and whitepaper on APS, but not quiet sure how to setup for this requirement. Anyone has a similar process working?   

I am trying to get a report showing detailed BOMs including costing and I can’t seem to find how to do this? Can anyone help?

Our business just began manufacturing; we have always imported and distributed. However, now we are taking our raw materials and converting into a finished good. We do not have the manufacturing module. We have the distribution module and are in the process of implementing a WMS.If I am not going to implement MFG module right now, how would I keep track of raw materials, finished goods and waste? I have outlined my original thought process below, but I am afraid it will be time consuming and opens up the possibility for mistakes. I am open to ideas and recommendations.I have thought about creating a new “Inventory Adjustment” for every sales order. In the “Description”, I would put the SO# and the Job Name so that I could identify the order. Then I would deduct inventory from the raw material to account for the finished good and the waste. And I would add inventory to the finished good. This way, the inventory is now accounted for and we can create a shipment from the SO and invoice th

Hi All, For anyone who ships from the software, which third party software are you using to support your processes? We currently use Fusion and the team is questioning the solution to make they have the best needs for processes. We also use Zebra handhelds on the floor to pick and pack. Thank you!

We have a repair facility where we need to start with a repair quote (RQ) and move to an Repair Order (RO) once we receive authorization to proceed with repair from customer.  I need to open a production order on the Quote as I need to post labor right away for the evaluation.  When I start in quote, the mark for production box is grayed out. We are currently on release 2024 R2. Do I have a setting wrong?  Is this even possible?  Will the production move from quote to order properly?  Anyone doing something similar that has come up with a way to do this or a work around?

Hi Everyone We are having an issue with rounding up purchase quantity from required quantity on Purchase Order.  For exampleInventory Item: Metal Sheet (Each Sheet is 2.5 sqm)Base Unit: SQMPurchase Unit : EA“Qty Roundup” under manufacturing only applies to required quantity in base unit.  Say 12.9 sqm of metal sheet is required for a production order. It generates a Purchase Order for 5.16 sheets. (We need the Purchase Order to round up the quantity to an integer, in this case 6 sheets.)  We tried implementing lot size as 2.5 in both 1) inventory - replenishment and 2) bill of material - lot.It didn’t seem to work. Could you please suggest a solution? Is customisation the only way?  Thanks in advance. 

there is available inventory but i am still getting this message.    There is enough availability on hand.  i am only allocating 2 pcs and the system shows 5 available between my two shipping locations.  i’ve checked Inventory Allocation Details but i'm not sure how to read it.   but i did check all the sales orders with this part number and i don't have any allocated as show in Inventory summary above.    Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be great.   

Has anyone ever run across a production order that will not come off hold status? I click the button, and it will not release.
