Good Day Everyone, I am trying to figure out how costs get calculated on disassemblies. The knowledge base associates disassemblies with the Actual cost method. Is there a formula I can see on how this get calculated?Does anyone have a formula?Thanks

I was recently told that if you have a Sales Order that has a linked Production Order the user is unable to ship separately and has to ship the full amount of that link or else Acumatica has issues processing it. For example:Sales Order Line is for 5 → Production order is for 5 → 3 complete early and we want to ship them to the customer → 2 complete a couple of days later and we need to create another shipmentSince there is a “hard link” on the Sales order we are unable to create shipment 1 for 3 items and shipment 2 for 2 items without causing issues in Acumatica. Is this correct? If so how have other customers got around this?

Hello Experts, I am facing error while creating purchase order by critical materials from the production order. 

We have a client with a configurator with lots of attributes. The key format is currently set to Formula. There are so many attributes, they want to change to a system generated key format to be more usable. But when copying an existing configuration, there isn’t an option to change the key format on the newly created configuration. Does anyone know of a way to change the key format either on a new or existing configuation?

I’m not sure what this error means. The production order is for 16 and I am trying to input that we made 15 instead of 16. This scenario worked in our test tenant so I’m not sure why it’s not working in the live tenant or which “control point” it is referring to. 

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 use average costing and also Phantom Exclude materials.  Sometimes those Phantom Excluded Materials have run time included in their BOMs.When creating a production order, the cost roll ignores the routing of the Phantom Excluded material and only blows the parts into the parent BOM.  This behavior is correct. When performing a multi-level cost roll, the cost roll includes the cost associated with the run time of the Phantom Excluded material.  We believe this behavior to be incorrect - the BOM Cost Roll should ignore the cost of the run time when rolling up costs into the parent assemblyI’d like others’ thoughts on this.  Maybe our perspective is incorrect.

Acumatica lets you make mass changes to bills of materials but it doesn’t appear that you can make mass changes to existing production orders when the bills of material are changed.Does anyone know if this is possible?I have several customer asking this.

I have entered SO Order type Sales Order A for a configured Product that was marked for production.  i created a production Order from the sales order and the production order is now complete and the configured products which are also lot serial controlled are allocated to Sales Order A. then Customer service said they want to use the products built for Sales Order A on a new Sales Order B.  Same Qty and Same Configuration. Nothing i have tried will allow me to allocate the meters to the new Sales Order.i have broken the link to the Production Order and linked it to the new sales order.   Deleted the Shipment Confirmation from SO A. Unallocated and even deleted the line off of SO A and still can’t get create a shipment for Sales Order B.has anyone successfully be able to do this when a production order is linked to a sales order?     this happens in our current system about 2 - 3 times per month and we are getting close to implementing.    We are now in 2022 R2 but will soon be in 2023

Purchase Order Status not open, not completed, but in transit (shipped), but not received.How can you set up a shipped status for Purchase Orders? 

Hi Everyone,We are trying to automatically create a Purchase Order from an Appointment form.The functionality is almost complete, but I am encountering an issue when I call the Create Purchase Order (CreateProc) function within the POCreate graph. It redirects to the Purchase Orders form after executing the CreateProc function, and the subsequent functionality does not work.POCreate graphPOCreate = PXGraph.CreateInstance<POCreate>();graphPOCreate.Filter.Cache.RestoreCopy(graphPOCreate.Filter.Current, filter);graphPOCreate.CreateProc(list, filter.PurchDate, filter.OrderNbr != null, filter.BranchID);POButtonPressed(adapter);POButtonPressed this function not executed.Plz tell me how to resolve this..? ThanksNageswararao A.

Adding an operation to an existing production order.  This is the only operation for the production order.  The following image is from the Production order details screen.The following image is from the Companies screen. 

Hello, in production:If I have a work step (0020), the next work step (0030) has a completed quantity, but it is not yet completely finished.And then I want to change the description or the setup time in work step 0020, for example. An error occurs. (Shown in the image)If I have changed an entry and then click on another field or save, the following error message appears and the system deletes the operation ID.#but if the following work step does not contain a completed quantity, I can change everything.Is that normal or is it a bug? initial SituationError Message 

Hi Everyone, Will MRP always select the default vendor when creating purchase orders? Or will MRP recommend an alternate vendor (with a shorter lead time) if the preferred vendor’s lead time will not be quick enough for a Production Order/Sales Order.  

I am trying to add the PO# and PO Creator to the Bills and Adjustmetns GI but am getting duplicate rows.  I have added the APTran table and linked it to APInvoice.  I was hoping to get the PO# from the APTran table but now I am getting duplicate rows.  Any suggestions would be much appreciated!  

Wir haben ein Problem in der Produktion mit der Maschinenplanung.wenn ich in einer Ressource AM207000 eine Maschine AM204500 hinterlege und in der Stückliste AM208000 eine Maschineneinheit und Maschinenzeiten eintrage.  Dann einen Produktionsauftrag erstellen nach dem speichern ist dieser zuerst auf unbegrenzte Kapazität eingeplant. Wenn ich jetzt auf “Einplanen” gehe, wird dieser auf unbegrenzte Kapazität eingeplant. In den Maschinenkapazitäten AM406000 werden die Maschinen erst angezeigt, wenn der Produktionsauftrag richtig eingeplant wurde Auch in Maschinen Planung AM000012 werden die Maschinen erst angezeigt, wenn Sie auf begrenzte Kapazität geplant wurde. Wenn ich nun den Auftrag auf “ungeplant” setzte und neu einplane, dann werden die neuen geplanten Zeiten auf die aktuellen einfach aufaddiert jedes mal wen ich den Prozess wiederhole, erhöhen sich die geplanten Blöcke der Maschine.  Diese Zeiten lassen sich durch “Planung und Kapazitäten aktualisieren” AM512000 auch nicht mehr

We have a customer that builds large assemblies.  The welding of these assemblies spans several days.  Since the Bill of Material/Production Order Details only allow up to 23:59 for Run Time, we are entering fractional Run Units to plan hours >= 24:00 per operation. For example, if the planned hours are 250 hrs for a weld operation, we would enter 0.04 Run Units at 10:00 Run Time.However, there are some cases however where we cannot plan the hours accurately due to run units only being 2 decimal precision.  Has anyone else run into this and have another solution?Thanks!LF

Did anybody ever get the following Error when saving a Production Order on initial Creation?Inserting 'Schedule Operation' record raised at least one error. Please review the errors. Error: 'Queue Start Date' cannot be empty. Error: 'Move End Date' cannot be empty. I have never seen this Error before and I cannot really locate what is causing it.Any common causes for this can be really helpful.

Hallo,und zwar ist uns aufgefallen, dass wenn ich einen Haupt Produktionsauftrag AM201500 habe, und bei diesem dann die Aktion “Aufträge für Unterbaugruppen generieren” ausführe, dass dann die Unteraufträge erstmal richtig Terminiert werden, gegen Unendliche Planung.Wenn ich jetzt jedoch “Produktiosaufträge Grobplanung” AM501000 verwende und z. B. den Hauptauftrag nach vorne verschiebe, vom Termin her, und dann den Hauptauftrag und alle dazugehörigen Unteraufträge (sind in Referenzen miteinander verknüpft) zusammen neu einplane gegen endliche Kapazität. Dann werden die Unteraufträge nicht wie erwartet richtig vor den Hauptauftrag Terminiert, sondern alle werden als eigenständige Produktionsaufträge behandelt und Nicht zusammengehörig eingeplant.Gibt es hier also eine Möglichkeit zusammengehörige Haupt und Unteraufträge ordentlich zu Terminieren?Haupt ProduktionsauftragJetzt wurden die zwei Unteraufträge richtig Terminiert, gegenunbegrenzte Kapazität.Den Hauptauftrag vor die Unteraufträ

2 warehousesManufactured item had demand for 100I have none in the warehouse with demand.I have 100 in warehouse that does not have demand.Using MRPI want to create a production order to meet demand, UNLESS I have quantities in the second warehouse.  Then I want inventory planning to tell me to transfer these.Since the source is MFG, inventory planning tells me to build when I could do a transfer instead. Same question on purchased items.Is this a thing in Acumatica?Thanks!

Hello,I have created a query that lists the components of received items. My goal is to use this management event to automatically create outputs of components when the parent item is received. However, the event is not triggering as expected.

​ Iam wondering if it's possible to Lock the Line description for the sales team to not change the description anymore. I looked in the settings but couldn't find a solution 

On trying to setup Matrix Items, I noticed that the Stock Items page Inventory ID only allows the entry of 20 characters and the field is set as 30 nvarchar long, any idea why? 

So, we have Clock Entries against Production Orders, but to approve the Clock Entries, I’m getting the following error:The transaction cannot be created for Production Order RO (Order number) because the item quantity exceeds the preassigned item quantity for the 000010DATEIN240410 lot or serial number.However, that’s not the only issue. I had to CHANGE the Lot number to 000010DATEIN240410 (it was assigning the ‘lot’ day) and giving me this error:The transaction cannot be created for Production Order RO (Order Number) because the 000000DATEIN240410 lot or serial number has not been preassigned. Why is Clock Entry Approval trying to assign lot numbers? Why isn’t it just using the lot numbers that were generated on the Production Order?
