I am trying to create a Selector Type Attribute, to use in a User Defined Field, in Cases.  The purpose is to select from a list of sold Serialized Items to track cases for warranty.  Any ideas?  I have tried various tables, but none provides a resulting list of serialized items.Thank you

When I go to close a production order I sometimes get an error that says there are open transactions that need to be released before the production order can be closed. This all makes sense but I find it very difficult to pin point which transaction (materials, labor, or move) isn’t released. In most cases it’s a second materials transaction that someone forgot they started and created a new one. Unfortunately the unreleased transactions do not show up on the events page of the production order (which also makes sense). How else can I track down what transaction is holding up the closing process?Thank you!

Hi,I'm encountering an issue with Manufacturing Backflush. I have a production order where all the component materials are set to backflush. The problem is that, despite having sufficient stock in the warehouse, the system is throwing an "out of stock" error during the move transaction. There’s plenty of inventory in the system, but it’s not being recognized during the move. Is there a specific logic that the system follows when selecting a location for backflushing? I’ve noticed that when there is stock in the location defined in the production header, the error doesn’t occur.  I believe the system should check all the locations within the warehouse that are set to "production allowed.

Wanted to make the community aware of a somewhat rare occurrence but meaningful.  We had an infrequent occurrence by our engineering team of naming a Component BOM in the Materials of a higher level BOM.  When this Component BOM was archived but NOT removed from the higher level BOM and demand elements drove the need to generate a production order, the entire MRP (inventory planning) job failed with an error “Inventory Planning Error…...specifies the BOM details…..The given key was not present in the dictionary.” In other conditions when a BOM is archived at the top level (Finished Good), MRP will complete the run and recommend a production order.  If executed, the production order will have no BOM ID in it (and thus no production content).  We have flags to identify this error.   I’m just surprised the entire MRP job fails. This seems like a problem; I’d rather the job complete with errors.  Fairly random occurrence but seems like something that should get fixed.  We are operating wit

I am attempting to create a kit BOM GI to send to our warehouse. Our warehouses uses our products alternate ID (in this case ISBN) to identify our products. Is there a way to return the alternate ID for the kit header as well as each of the components? Thanks,​​​​​

Hi all, I am creating a Production order using a configuration, I don’t have default warehouse nominated on my configuration lines. instead I am expecting the default issue warehouse on stock item or on item warehouse detail takes precedence of which warehouse the item should be issued from. by the look of the behavior it picks the warehouse attached to the work center instead. why is it behaving like this? we can’t ask a customer to override every line ! configurator setup item warehouse detail setup stock item setup the way it appears on the production line it should be picking shed 2 not the Fin Goods warehouse. not sure where is this going wrong?Thanks Ghazal 

Is there a way to update the Stock Item ID associated to a BOM, without deleting and re-creating the BOM?   Thanks!

Is there a way to set up a maximum production amount for a single production order?Example:We have a custom seed mix that we make in house. Our mixer can hold up to 450 pounds total. I want to be able to limit a single production order to 450 pounds or less being made.Thanks!

What benefits do you get from manufacturing data collection beyond the standard product?What additional functionality is provided?Are there any good references showing why a company would purchase this?

Is there a setting to allow using the same lot number for an item for multiple production orders?  I have a client that tracks the lot number of the component.  They usually create several orders to consume the component, but can’t use the same lot number across multiple production orders.  

Hi All,Wanted to get some opinions on the Manufacturing Data Collection module. What is your experience with it? Has it helped your operation? Is it worth getting? Would love to hear some scenarios where it helped.I was fond of the ‘Scan Material’ and ‘Scan Move’ functions, I definitely see that helping the team with minimizing manual data entry and all. Thank you!

Hi Team, I want to create approval process screen for Equipment and facing difficulties that EPEquipment Standard PrimaryDAC not implemented with IAssign interface. I am getting following error error CS0311: The type 'PX.Objects.EP.EPEquipment' cannot be used as type parameter 'SourceAssign' in the generic type or method 'EPApprovalAutomation<SourceAssign, Approved, Rejected, Hold, SetupApproval>'. There is no implicit reference conversion from 'PX.Objects.EP.EPEquipment' to 'PX.Data.EP.IAssign'. Regards,Sakthi

I am trying to create an import scenario that will create purchase orders from production orders.  I need to have a separate PO for each production order.  

I’ve created a sales order with one line and a production order by Rest-API. I would like to link these orders by API. PUTing "SOLineNbr", "SOOrderNbr", "SOOrderType" into production order object doesn’t work. These fields stay null. The other way i get an error: "An error occurred during processing of the field AMProdOrdID: A numbering sequence for the order type is not configured.." Which is wrong.Any ideas?

Working on using replenishment.  However the message references a screen we don’t have access too.  I believe that module was turned off in enable/disable, but Inventory Planning Should still work.  Is this just a bug?    

Hello! We are a manufacturing company, and we currently use the Inventory Planning Display screen to view what finished goods need to be manufactured in order to meet sales orders and safety stock. I would like to have the same information pulled as a generic inquiry (no actions, obviously) for the potential to utilize it with business events for production planning down the road while also using it to build a dashboard. Has anyone ever tried to make the Inventory Planning Display as a GI? Could I see how it was created? Thanks! 

Few questions as it relates to backflushing of materials against a production order:How does the system flag us if we do not have enough stock of items marked for backflush? In our current model (without use of backflush), we utilize a warning message on Move transactions. This warning message flags us that there are unreleased materials to be issued. This is great as it ensures all material gets issued. Now that we have certain items marked for Backflush, all these items appear in the warning message - making it impossible to decipher which will be issued during the Move transaction (backflush) and which are true unreleased materials.  Is there a way to use warning message while omitting backflushed items?

Does anyone have an invoice template that would list, along with the product description, the items from Configuration Maintenance?Or, can this be done?  If so, how?Thanks

Set up a Configuration Maintenance for model 7 X 16-TA.  Needed to change it but it’s not allowed and can’t delete it.  Created a new version and market old version as “inactive.”  System either will only recognize original version or give an error: Have tried all combinations and Set Active one as Default Configuration.  New version tested out fine.  Just will not allow use in Sales Order.What am I missing?Thanks. 

Entered a Sales Order with an item marked as Configurable but the Configure tab is not active.  What are we missing?  

We have, what probably is, a unique situation. We are trying to find all the data that goes into creating the production order details from the product configurator where we have used Phantom material types in BOMs past just one layer. What this results in is if we have Phantom’d on top of another Phantom, we only see the level up Phantom BOM. Is there somewhere in the background that we would be able to see all the data and return it to a table? Here is an example:A - Configured Product (This is Item getting produced)       B - Option Chosen in Configurator (Phantom Item)               C-Item in Item B BOM, (Phantom)                     C1-Item in Item C BOM (Phantom)                             C1.1- Item in Item C1 BOM (Regular)               D-Item in Item B BOM (Phantom)                     D1-Item in Item D BOM (Phantom)                             D1.1 - Item in Item D1 BOM (Regular)               E- Item in Item B BOM (Phantom)                     E1-Item in Item E BOM (Phantom

I’m working on a GI that will have show in a line or partial line on a sales order is allcated.  We use the Product Configurator so if we have a order with 10 configured products on it and one of the 1 is allocated the report will show a line for the one that is allocated and separate line for the 9 that are not.   i can’t see to find the table name for the “Line Details” table on the SOLine that shows if a item is allocated or not and if that is the right table.I’m currently using the SOLineSplilt and getting the duplicates.   Below are the Relations that i currently have but i have changed each one to no avail. any help would be much apricated.Our Production Team uses this report to keep track of what they have and have not build and sent to shipping.  Shipping allocates the Non Configured Products and the Production Order auto allocates them as they are completed on the Prod. Ord.   either way they drop off the Production list to build. 

Hi,I’ve been able to login, logout, create sales order, etc. I’m not new to REST or ODATA development but I’ve only been using Acumatica API for the last few months. I’m looking for documentation, a postman collection or both that describes the MANUFACTURING endpoint. I’ve already found the DEFAULT endpoint docs. I’m also aware of the Web Services Endpoints screen which is my only “docs” at the moment.Have the Acumatica REST API reference docs really omitted the whole MANUFACTURING Endpoint and everything it contains? Perhaps it is just that I don’t know where to find them?I’m used to companies like Hubspot and others who document their products. I’ve managed to get a 200 OK from a request of the ProductionOrder endpoint through guessing and trial and error. That’s not that unusual with such API development but it would have been helpful not to be as in the dark. However, I haven’t yet attempted ProductionOrderDetail endpoint and I’ll be trying that soon. I believe my development would

Is there a way to have a secondy production order generated that is linked to a sales order line? For example if we enter a sales order line that calls for 10 units to be produced and production closes the order after only completing 5. (Or if production scrapped 5 units) Can another production order automatically generate for the remining 5 units required to complete the sales order line? Thanks

Hello,we have couple of Material records for which we received the error, “Cannot mark the record as updated because another record with same key exists in cache. Contact your Acumatica support provider for the assistance”. How can we delete these records, when we tried to delete them we are getting error “AM Error: The batch contains released related transactions and cannot be deleted.” Can someone please help us.
