Manufacturing

When generating production order from sales order, the production order is created, but the production number does not show up on the Sales Orders details section. It's showing <NEW>. This happens on all production orders generated from sales orders. How do I fix this?Thanks!

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?

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.

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.

Does anyone have an import template for multi level BOMs.  I have BOMs that have multiple levels and include Outside processing. 2020 R2.

Hello,we plan to cover the proces, that we can take data from SO line automatically into linked Product Configuration!Did someone work on this process? Does someone know if this is an standard process in Acumatica?(Optional: take data direct vie REST- API into Product Configuration→ Is this posible? Any experience?:-)) Thanks a lot in advance! BRTim

Am I missing something when I’m scanning materials to a production order? The workflow for using a scanner has been (in other modules) you scan your location, item, then you get this fun kind of conditional branch:You can set the qty, scan a different item, or scan a new location.When scanning in a production order, once I’ve scanned an item, I am forced into one of two paths: Set Qty or Scan Production ID.Why am I not allowed to scan another item, or another location for another item in the same Operation in the same Production ID?Instead of making nice loops, I’m forced to scan:Production ID OP ID Location Item Set Qty Confirm Form or repeat from Step 1.I want to repeat from Step 4 (or 3 as needed). Is this something I need to configure? Seems weird to keep feeding the system “header info” when it already has it. Sure, I can see issuing material to multiple Production Orders, but that shouldn’t be a forced thing on the end-users. In the system I’m using they will NEVER issue to multi

Hello, I was wondering if anybody knew of a way to link part numbers together.  We have a RAW part number XXXXX-R which can either get polished or powder coated.  Once they are polished or powder coated, we receive them back in under the same part number minus the R XXXXX less (-R).  This will mean that we have 250 finished parts in stock but the RAW part was taken  out of inventory.  It may take 6 months to get down to 100 parts where we need to order more but the system is already telling us to order the RAW part as soon as it is polished or powder coated because the RAW part was taken down to a quantity of 0 in the system.  Is there a way to link the finished part to the RAW part so that when the finished part is down to 100 it tells us to order the RAW part for 250?

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.  

We are trying to cancel a order and the following error is generated “The status of the production order cannot be changed because it has related transactions that are not released.”  Here is the background on this production: When the production ticket was created the wrong BOM was used.  We corrected the BOM issue No materials were issued and no labor was added. The router was in releases status. Where can I locate this “related transaction that isn’t release as of yet.”?

Hello,We have multiple warehouses.  All sell/MFG the same products.  We’d prefer not to have a BOM for each warehouse since they are all the same.  However, when I regen MRP after entering a sales order, I get different results if the warehouse on the sales order differs from warehouse on the BOM.Example:Finished product with 4 different materials.Enter a sales order for the finished product using the warehouse on the BOM. Regen MRP MRP Display suggests a production order for the finished product AND purchase suggestions for the materials  (this is the desired behavior)Enter a sales order for the finished product using a warehouse NOT ON THE BOM. Regen MRP MRP Display ONLY suggests a production order for the finished product.  It does NOT suggest anything for the needed materials.I have tried using substitution work centers and see no difference in behavior. Again, I am just trying to avoid having 7 different BOMs for the same finished part just because it is being made in a different

We are on 25R2 modern UI and using the New Release Process for Manufacturing.  I have seen two glitches so far, and wondered if anyone else has seen these in their instance:A Move that completes an operation no longer records Actual Start Date and Actual End Date in the AMProdOper (Production Details, routing section) table.  We have critical reports that rely on these dates, and they are broken right now due to this issue. The final Move (production receipt) for a linked Production Order to SO Line no longer allocates the inventory to the SO Line.  You have to delete the SO Line and re-add it to invoice the sales order.  The issue this creates for us is that the production order loses the link to the Sales Order, also breaking critical reports that help us report on stock product versus build-to-order product.I don’t see a way to undo the New Release Process, but I would like to.

The purpose of the Production Scheduling Whitepaper is to increase the reader’s knowledge of the scheduling processes available within Acumatica. It is strongly recommended to first complete the M100, M200 and M210 manufacturing education courses and be familiar with Acumatica processes and general work center and work calendar configurations. Upon completion of reading this document readers should understand:  Available scheduling methods within Acumatica   How Acumatica determines start and end dates for each scheduling method  What inputs are considered for each scheduling method The following concepts are NOT addressed in detail in this document as they are well covered in either Acumatica’s online help or the M100, M200, or M210 manufacturing education courses.  How to configure work centers   How to configure tools   How to configure machines   For Finite Scheduling, when to run APS Maintenance The following topics were excluded in the first version of this whitepaper but may be

We are trying to close an order and the following error is generated “The status of the production order cannot be changed because it has related transactions that are not released.”  We have ran all product we needed and returned any material that needed to and we are ready to close this work order.I have referenced other related topics and we have reviewed all transaction related to the work order and all show released and posted. This order does not prevent us from closing the month which further validated all transactions have been released and posted. Any help is appreciated.

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? 

If Use Fixed Manufacturing Time on Inventory Planning Preferences is not checked, we expect MRP to use manufacturing time from the BOM.We are having trouble getting it to take Queue Time into account. DA-L0 and DA-L1 both have a queue time of 4 days.Created an SO for DA-L0 on 3/15. Here is the MRP Result, with the planned action dates for the production orders being 3/15.Shouldn’t the queue time of 4 days force the action date back 4 days?If I create the RO from the SO, it does back up the start date. 

We are currently on version 2025 R2.  We are having an issue where Inventory is released when a Sales order is Invoiced.  However, we need that to happen when Shipment is confirmed.  We have verified that the check box “Automatically Update IN Documents” in Sales Order Preferences is Checked.  We have also looked at the workflow in the customization of the sales order screen but haven’t gotten anything within there to work.  Has anyone had this issue before?

Hello all,Getting this error after the latest update.** Exception: Inventory Planning Error processing First Pass Detail. Type = Inventory Planning Requirement. Inventory ID = BLNK-22X64-29- GL. siteID = GST. Plan Date = 4/17/2024. Stock Qty = 880.0000. FP Record ID = 4368. BOM ID = BOM011160. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.We can delete the BOM entirely but it will just error on the next one.  Here are shots of the trace log. Thoughts?  

We had a production order completed without doing the final move. So the Order is in completed status. We would like to move this into inventory. What is a good way of accomplishing this? 

I am working with the product configurator and I’ve come across a situation:1. Create a sales orders with a configurated item.2. Configure the item, and push to production to get it on the schedule.3. The configuration changes AFTER the SO is created but before production happens. 4. Delete the production order since the BOM has changed.What we are running into is that we cannot reconfigure the item on the SO, we have to completely delete the SO line and re-enter it to be able to do a new configuration. We are also finding if we configure, but don't push to production, and the configuration changes they cannot pick up the new configuration and reconfigure. Has anyone run into anything similar and are there creative process solutions around this? 

Hello,We recently (past 3 months) went live with Acumatica and are continuing to refine our processes and explore capabilities.    My current project is to set safety stock on certain raw materials so we can leverage MRP and ensure that we always maintain the necessary on hand material levels.   We have set our Inventory Planning preferences as shown below:  We have two warehouses setup in our system, MAIN (aka Finished Goods), and RAWMTL.  All of our raw materials are inventoried in the raw material warehouse.     We set the invetory planning values as shown below on a select group of raw material part numbers for testing: We then ran MRP and reivewed the Inventory Planning Display and were surprised to see that MRP was showing Safety Stock demand (see below) for us to purchase this material in the MAIN warehouse despite the fact that we have sufficient (greater then 300lbs) material on hand in the RAWMTL warehouse. For materials that do not have sufficient on hand inventory in the RA

We have a production order with an operation for service.  The operation contains a non-stock item for the service.When I click “create purchase order” I get this error. Here is the non-stock service on the operation 

Material and move completed from Operation 10 to operation 20, not all required claimedHi, we are experiencing issue where the required material quantity is not being claimed in the operation. Currently, the material and moves are done manually from the office. What are some of the reasons/ways to troubleshoot this? Thank you, 

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?
