Does anyone have an export scenario that will export BOM’s so that they can be imported into another tenant

Have you ever built a GI to show POs that are linked to Production Order, where the PO is raised through the MRP screen? can you please help pointing me to the right direction?I have a very simple scenario:User raises a Production Order (through Prod Order Maintenance) for one item, which has 1 component User regnerates MRP The component of the item is suggested in MRP Display User click Purchase - the PO is createdI’m trying to build a generic inquiry to show which PO is raised for which Production Order.What I have found so far is that:On the POLine, there’s a PlanID, which I can link to INItemPlan In INItemPlan, for the same component, there are actually 2 records: One have a PlanType = Production Demand - this line has a PlanID that is linked to the AMRPDetail table - where I can potentially get the Production Order Number, and this PlanID also linked to AMProdOper table, where I can also get the PO number, but only when the PO is raised through the Critical Material screen (which

are there any written manuals with screen shots to follow how to work in Acumatica

The client is a manufacturing company.The client wants to record Deferred COGS (Asset Type ; aside from Finished Goods) upon receipt and later on recognized COGS (Expense Type) upon Revenue recognition.

Is there a field for freight on the BOM.  I don't see one. 

if we enter bom and put on hold does it affect inventory

When Auto creating linked orders what are the factors that the process looks at to know which item to generate as a new Production Order?   

Acumatica has a costing method "Average Cost Period = Month".That is, at the end of the month, sum up all costs including (Materials, depreciation of the fixed assets, electricity bills, water bills, ...), divided by the total inventory of finished goods for the period.Unit Cost =  The total cost of production of that item/Quantity of finished goods

What part/module of Acumatica do you use to track PM’s on your company equipment?We need to track everything about our equipment to stay in accordance with ISO regulations and right now it’s a spreadsheet and Microsoft Planner.

I have a production order with 5 different OP IDs (0010 to 0050). In OP ID 0020, Part A is consumed. At OP ID 0040, it was discovered that Part A was not made correctly and it needs to be scrapped and replaced with a correct Part A. What’s the best way to go about solving this issue? 

Hello, How to use the day of the year in a batch/series number formula. For example, today is 03/29/2022, so on the 88th day of the year, I would like my lot/serial number start with 2022/088.

In acumatica standard, is it possible to create ECO without going through ECR?

How do most people deal with USMCA and Canadian Customs Forms? (and other forms like these)

Hi,If the Sales Order Line QTY to be changed after the Production Order is created and (in Process) what the best way to ensure that the Production Order will also be updated with the new qty?We can put the PO on hold and manually update the Qty to Produce, but is there a better way?Also it was noticed the manual update is not showing in the Totals Tab - Planned Qty. Is this on purpose?Application version is 2020R2 Thanks

Are there any users experiencing strange behavior in the Generate Forecast screen in v2020r2?  We’ve found the following issues:If an existing calculation is displayed in the Generate Forecasts screen, and the user wants to create a generate a new calculation with different parameters, the system throws an error regarding a “circular” reference.  This requires the user to delete all of the forecast lines from the Generate Forecasts screen so he or she can start over. If a user generates a forecast, it is displayed and cached within his or her user account but is not visible on another’s account.  In other words, it appears that each user is creating and maintaining his or her own forecast as opposed to the forecast been company wide. To that point, if one user removes all of the line on “his” generated forecast, other users will have their own forecasts on their screens, even after a web page refresh.  It appears that the generated forecasts are remaining in users’ caches incorrectly. 

I am performing testing on a client’s BOMs whereby materials and labor are both backflushed. The BOMs are quite simple in nature with one or two work centers. At this time we have a zero rate applied to the work center since the client has not determined the appropriate value. When production is completed and the move step is initiated, I see the materials go into WIP at the proper cost. The labor cost does not generate entry since the work center rate is 0. When I check the move out of WIP and into inventory, there is an unknown component to the entry whereby COGs and Inventory are impacted but there is not reflected in the cost of the item, nor should it be. I cannot figure out what is driving this entry.  See screenshots for example. Any idea why the highlighted portion of the entry in the last screenshot is happening?  Client uses Average Cost valuation method for inventory. I tried the Cost Roll process to see if this would fix the issue but it has not.   

I have items on my MRP Exceptions that are showing Transfer Available types. How do I get these off of this list as they should not be available from that supply warehouse? They are the ones highlighted on the bottom.  

Does anyone know if Acumatica supports 'box' functionality that allows for a given stock item to have multiple 'boxes' for storing the item in several inventory locations.Context is a stock item that is received as multiple boxes (say 3) with 1 of 3, 2 of 3 and 3 of 3 stored in different possibly locations. Wasn’t sure if this was supported today and if so, where I could find more details. Any insight, greatly appreciated. Thanks,Dave

My MRP is asking me to delete items from an RC Order (I think) and I am not understanding why. Can anyone shed some light on this situation so I may try to get it cleared off my list? Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks! 

We were under the impression that an MRP Display of “Safety Stock” indicates the item is only needed to keep the item quantity above the safety stock level. However, we are seeing items which are negative to allocation (ie. demand for the item on existing production orders exceeds the quantity on hand and on order) but MRP shows the item as needed for safety stock. Shouldn’t this be either MRP Requirement or Production Material? See below for sample item:The “Safety Stock” designation is confusing and has resulted in stock outs as the items weren’t ordered in time to meet the real demand for the item. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

I have three or four production orders that are causing demand on MRP despite the fact that they are closed. Anyone have a list of things I could check to make sure everything has been correctly processed to trace back why this is happening? TIA

This may be a pretty basic questions but I am learning, If I need to edit the stock item safety stock in a warehouse, is there a way to do that in bulk? It would take a very long time to clean up this data if I have to open every single item in item warehouse details and edit them. There has to be a better way! TIA!

When running MRP for a finished good marked as MRP item, do I need to mark raw materials as an MRP item also or will the system automatically pull them in?The idea is to only set the safety stock at the finished good level and run MRP off of that. We want to minimize raw materials at is food production. Thank you.

Does anyone know of a historical WIP report for production?I have a customer who would like to be able to see what was in WIP on any given day, to be able to show auditors.

Is it possible to see a breakdown of total average cost of production into average labor/average material/average overhead and average outside service costs respectively. Is there already a way to do this, is there is sufficient data available to break this out with a custom report or would I need to have a customization to get to this level of traceability?
